Nadia fumbled with the silver locket — a family heirloom she’d worn for eighteen years without ever prying open. Inside wasn’t a photo. It was a micro-SD card, smaller than a fingernail.
Nadia stared at the notebook. Then at the split-screen, which now showed only Young Nadia — frozen mid-sentence, pen hovering over a page that read: "They are watching. But who is recording the watchers?"
She closed the laptop. Rain hammered the window.
The feed cut.
She inserted it into her laptop.
