Prompt
Mira's new Mumbai chawl flat in Dadar reeked of damp and metal. Thin walls let in neighbors' whispers. That first night, her breathing echoed back—delayed, raspy.Footsteps followed by day three: her clop-clop, then a softer reply from inside the plaster. She drilled a peephole. Nothing but darkness exhaling back.The mimicry worsened. Coughs returned as hacks; yawns as moans. Her whispers begged "Hello?" and a chorus wheezed it back, wet and pleading.Coworker Priya heard the heartbeat thumping from the bedroom wall. She fled, screaming of spirits. Mira hammered the kitchen plaster. Bones tumbled out: ribs, a child's skull clutching a locket
