OOM: France, 2005
[Third OOM]
Kate wakes to sunlight poring into her room, the shadows of Chêne-liège leaves dancing across her eyes. She breathes in deeply, stretching her legs against the cotton sheets, and rolls over. Her hand smooths over the mattress, searching.

A knock comes at her door, light but insistent, like the determined birdsong outside the french doors.
