I was just trying to fix a leaky roof. Instead, I found something that made my stomach drop. One wrong glance, one strange shape, and suddenly the whole world feels off. Your mind races. Your skin crawls. You start imagining things you really, really don’t want to be true. And then, when you finally lean closer, you re… Continues…

I didn’t expect to find anything more than rust and loose screws, but that twisted little shape changed everything about that afternoon.

It was just a small life that had ended unnoticed, high above everyone’s heads. I climbed down from the roof a little more carefully than I’d gone up, strangely grateful for the reminder that most “mysteries” are just reality, seen before we’re ready to face it.
