VESPER
The room settles into silence the moment Niki leaves, unknowingly seeing his cat for the last time. For a time, Vesper remains exactly where he is, watching the dark beyond the glass until it reflects nothing back at him but his own narrow, blue-eyed stare, until even that begins to blur at the edges. The silence stretches, and in it his irritation sharpens into something colder, before Vesper departs from the windowsill.
In the morning, when the light creeps pale and thin through the windows, Niki will find the kitchen counter cleared save for two things. A note, simple and unadorned, bearing only a single word: don’t.
And beside it, a dead magpie.
