Thirteen years later, he kills himself the same way his donor did. Same method. Same location.Two children knock on a car window asking for a ride home. Their eyes are solid black from edge to edge.

Zero explanations that hold up under scrutiny.The signal sometimes gets through. The heart sometimes remembers. The door should stay locked.
