00:00The police searched the house for hours, combing the surrounding woods with canine units.
00:05They found pry marks on the rear back door and forced entry points along the windowsills.
00:10The intruder hadn't picked a lock.
00:13He had spent hours maneuvering through the house while I sat upstairs with my headphones on, completely oblivious.
00:20I packed my bags that very night and never stepped foot in that house again.
00:26To this day, whenever I hear someone calling my name in the wind, I still feel the cold phantom weight
00:32of a shadow waiting just outside my door.
