I stepped inside cautiously, the old wood creaking beneath my boots. All was silent, untouched. I hadn't set foot here since Creed and I visited Grandpa Roman's room. My heart gave a tiny ache, but I pushed it aside. Suzu paced ahead of me, sniffing.

I dashed up the stairs, Suzu now growling, ears perked up. When I crept around into my bedroom, my jaw nearly fell off.
