A spark of recognition flared—a Christmas party at that same peculiar neighborhood house. Tonight. you set a timer, slept, and awoke to the sharp chime of the alarm.

Leaning heavily against his shoulder was Cosmo, half-asleep and clingy, just as he had been before. Inside, the inviting scent of warm, steaming cookies wafted from the table.
