"Silly. Dark isn't scary. Dark is safe.'Why? 'I live in the dark all the time. But when it's dark outside everyone has to be there, too. And if you can't see someone, they can't see you, either. She sniffles a few times. 'So, it's like I'm hiding in the dark?'Yes. You're the secret when it's dark. Dark is safe."
