They called it a trend at first.

Just another weird online thing.
Until people started losing time.

A boy in France blacked out for 12 minutes while reciting Elena's unreleased verse — a verse never published anywhere.
A teacher in South Korea paused mid-lesson, turned to her class, and said:
> "The girl in the song wants out. Who here has a quiet enough soul to hold her?"
Then fainted.

It wasn't possession.
Not entirely.
These people weren't controlled.
They were tapped.
Used like speakers.
Like breathing microphones.
The voice didn't scream anymore.
It asked. Pleaded. Suggested.
But it always left a trace behind.
A line written on a wall.
A scratch on the skin.
A glitch in the camera.
Or a phrase carved into mirrors:
> "SHE SPOKE THROUGH ME"

Ezra watched it unfold like a man watching a flood through a keyhole.
And in all of it—one thing never changed:
No one remembered speaking.

Then came the girl in Brazil.
8 years old.
No phone. No internet. No music in the house.
But one day she started humming the bridge.
Perfectly.
And when her mother asked her where she heard it…
She said:
> "In my bones."
---
Ezra couldn't hide anymore.
This wasn't about guilt.
This was architecture.
The voice wasn't trying to be heard.
It was trying to move in.
