The coffee cup trembled slightly in Sarah’s hand. She replayed the video on the screen. Her daughter, Chloe, singing. The girl was transformed, a different Chloe than the one she knew. This account—hidden, yet now revealed—was an entire universe of talent. Sarah's breath caught in her throat.

She knew she shouldn't be here, shouldn’t be watching. But the magnetic pull was too strong. She found herself clicking through every post, every story, every like. Her heart hammered against her ribs, a frantic rhythm.

She started humming the song Chloe had sung, the melody catching in her mind like a burr. She felt a lightness, a sense of wonder. She wanted to know more. Everything. She felt like she was in on a magical secret.
