Teddy
OUT SEPTEMBER 4
There was a house on our street, and a man nobody really knew. Pale, always in that hat, only ever seen at night. When strange things started happening — when people began to disappear — the whole neighborhood built its own version of the truth. The kids were told to cross the street if he came near. They said only the crows kept him company.
This is the story of Teddy. Whether he was what they said, or just a man the world couldn't explain, was never certain. Some things stay unspoken.
