Hi Aavya. The lamp went out, and the room felt bigger. Aavya crawled under the blanket. It grew hotter in there, and the fear came closer. Why? Hiding does not move the walls. Aavya walked to Krishna. Krishna said, the room is the same. The walls are where they were. I am right here. Let the breath out. Aavya did. The room came back to its size. Aavya, the dark is not a new room. It is the same room, with the light off, and you are not alone.
