The drawing, a mess of swirling colors and frantic scribbles, was unmistakably "Fuzz," the furry, multi-limbed creature that Sarah had spent countless hours with as a child. Now, it was brought to life again through the hands of her grandnephew, Ethan. A wave of something washed over her, making her breath catch.

"What's Fuzz doing today?" she asked, her voice gentle. Ethan looked up, his eyes shining. "He's playing hide-and-seek!" Sarah smiled. She understood, completely.

That evening, Sarah helped Ethan build a magnificent fort in the living room, a haven for hide-and-seek, filled with laughter and secret whispers.
