Sofia’s mother stared at it.
“What is that?”
“We found this near the alley behind the bakery.”
The officer unfolded the paper.
It was a photograph.
Sofia’s school photograph.
Her full name was written on the back.
Below it was her home address.
Her mother covered her mouth.
“No…”
But the officer had not finished.
“There were three more photographs.”
He placed them on the table.
The first showed Sofia leaving school.
The second showed her standing beside her mother’s car.
The third had been taken through the window of their house.
Sofia’s mother went pale.
“How long has he been watching us?”
“We don’t know yet.”
That night, police stayed outside their home.
Sofia slept in her mother’s room.
At 2:17 in the morning, one of the officers noticed movement near the backyard fence.
