Chapter 12 - Maya Opened the Drawer Again

A year after the nursery attack, Maya wanted to renovate Oliver's room.

I offered to hire someone.

She said no.

We did it ourselves.

When we removed the old wardrobe, she found the drawer.

The one hiding the camera receiver.

She sat on the floor.

I waited.

“You okay?”

“I think so.”

Then she pulled the drawer completely out.

“Let's burn it.”

I laughed.

“Seriously?”

“No.”

She smiled.

“Donate the wardrobe.”

We did.

The nursery became a little boy's room.

Blue walls.

Dinosaurs.

Books everywhere.

No cameras.

No hidden compartments.

No staged evidence.

Just mess.

Real mess.

Toy mess.

The kind that didn't need to prove anything.
