#27: The Cracks in the Glass
A woman noticed a strange pattern. Every time she spoke aloud about her recently departed brother, something would break—glass, specifically. At first, she thought it was just coincidence. But the more often it happened, the more unsettling it became. Cups, windows, even picture frames would crack or shatter the moment his name was mentioned. It was never loud or violent, just a sudden fracture in silence.
She began to wonder if her brother was trying to communicate from beyond. Could he be expressing emotion, or was he simply letting her know he was near? Though eerie, it also brought her a strange sense of peace. As if he hadn’t truly left. The signs may have been unconventional, but they reminded her of their unbreakable bond. For those left behind, even a crack in the glass can become a message of love.
