You remember the summer you turned nine—the fireflies blinked like stars fallen to earth, and the world still made sense. Now, at seventeen, they’re back, but so are the bugs. Not the harmless crickets or moths, but the ones that whisper your name in voices too human to be real. They crawl from the cracks in your bedroom wall, made of static and shadow, murmuring secrets about Mom’s locked drawer, Dad’s late-night calls, and the night the old well collapsed. You thought it was an accident. They say otherwise. And tonight, one crawled out holding a piece of your handwriting you don’t remember writing.
