16 September 2026It’s a pleasantly chirpy and fairly un-noteworthy day in his suburb of Novi Sad. The autumn leaves are falling onto the rooftops of the houses on the other side of the road, making subtle piles on the lawns, and it’s making Father sit here and think, why am I here right now, on the computer?

25 July 2026One day while Father is at his computer, he discovers a picture-taking app. He opens it. Suddenly, his face is staring at him from the computer screen. It shocks him.
