Abby sat at the kitchen island, utterly drained, tears streaking her cheeks. Her baby, Logan, had been crying nonstop, leaving her overwhelmed and helpless. Walter, her husband, noticed her distress and gently placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder.
“Honey, how long has Logan been like this?” Walter asked, his concern evident.
Abby exhaled shakily. “All day, Walter. I’ve tried everything—diaper changes, feeding, burping, even a bath. Nothing works. I just don’t know what else to do.”
Walter’s heart ached for his wife and their son. “We’ll figure it out together,” he promised. “Let’s see if we can calm him down.”
Grateful for his support, Abby followed him to Logan’s nursery. The cries grew louder as they approached, fraying Abby’s nerves further. Walter leaned over the crib, speaking softly to Logan. “Hey, buddy, it’s been a tough day, huh? Let’s see if Daddy can help.”
As he adjusted the blankets, something unexpected caught Walter’s eye—a small dictaphone blinking red. Puzzled, he picked it up and muttered, “What’s this doing here?”
Curious, he pressed play. A strange voice echoed from the device, freezing both Abby and Walter in their tracks. Their shock deepened as the recording revealed a chilling secret that changed everything.
Their world, once filled with ordinary struggles, now spiraled into the unknown, leaving them grappling with a sinister truth hidden in Logan’s cries.
