"Charming Bungalow – Ideal Starter Home!" The words, so bland, seemed to mock him. His childhood home, reduced to a generic description. He felt a tremor run through him, a physical manifestation of his unease.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. The breath caught in his throat. He felt dizzy. He could not believe that it was real. He felt a need to collapse. He could not.
