I was born on February 29th, so my parents said I was cursed and told the world I died. In reality, I’ve been locked in a soundproof basement for 16 years. Every four years, they let me exist for one day.

The second turning point came when the house needed electrical repairs. The basement lights flickered for days. One afternoon, the power went out completely.

For the first time in my life, the steel door wasn’t locked.

I stood there for a long time, my hand on the handle, heart pounding. I expected alarms. Shouting. Punishment.

Nothing happened.

I climbed the stairs barefoot, every step shaking. The house smelled like dust and lemon cleaner. It was quiet. Ordinary.

I found a filing cabinet in my father’s office.

Inside were hospital records.

My birth certificate wasn’t marked deceased.

It was marked “home discharge.”

No complications. No abnormalities. No curse.
