I burst into the room and Karolina looks up at me with wide, startled eyes.

There’s a garden hose filling a large plastic tub, and Aaron is chained to a chair balanced precariously on the edge. One slight tip in the wrong direction and Aaron goes under, unable to save himself from drowning in the water.
