Empty Night


The Kid's Room

A dim night light is enough to illuminate an empty crib with disturbed blankets and abandoned stuffed animals.

Leaving the door to the kid’s room open, you start back into the hallway and down the stairs. In the additional dim light light you avoid what appears to be a glass shampoo bottle on the top step.

At the bottom of the stairs you can feel a cool breeze coming in from the open back door. Looking out the window you catch a brief movement at the edge of the trees, but it’s too dark to see any details.

Looking around, the kitchen seems as expected, with nothing changed from when you went to bed…. except your partner’s shoes are no longer by the door.
