Later that night, she wakes to find her tiny pumpkin glowing softly... perfectly carved, as if by a gentle, unseen friend. The surprise brings the first true smile she's had in a long time. Reminding her that even during the hardest times, wonder, hope, and a little Halloween magic can still find their way in.
