My five-year-old daughter insisted on taking baths with my husband every single night. At first, I thought it was harmless — just their little bonding routine. Mark always laughed it off and told everyone he was “helping out” by handling bedtime. But after a while, I noticed how long they stayed in there. Not ten or fifteen minutes… sometimes over an hour. Every time they came out, Sophie looked drained instead of relaxed, clutching her towel tightly and refusing to look me in the eye. One night, when I tried to brush her wet hair, she jerked away so suddenly that my heart dropped. That was the moment fear quietly crept into my mind.

The next day, while cleaning the laundry room, I found a damp towel stuffed behind the basket. It had a strange white stain on it and smelled oddly sweet, almost chemical. My hands started shaking. That evening, after another endless bath, I sat beside Sophie on her bed while she hugged her stuffed bunny. I asked as gently as I could what she and Daddy were doing in there for so long. The moment the words left my mouth, her expression changed completely. Tears filled her eyes, and she whispered something that made my blood run cold: “Daddy says bath games are a secret.” I tried not to panic as I held her close and promised she could tell me anything.
