A Talk with Mark
Wanting another perspective, John decided to speak with their neighbor, Mark. “Got a minute to chat?” John asked while watering the garden.
Mark nodded, sensing the seriousness in John’s tone. Over a casual cup of coffee, John recounted everything—Max’s behavior, Emily’s fainting, the whispers in the night.
“It’s like Max knows something we can’t see,” John said, the tension obvious in his voice.
Mark grew quiet. “Have you ever noticed anything strange at night?” he asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.
