😱 Every day, a flock of crows gathered at the same window. No one understood why—until the residents decided to go inside.
Everything was ordinary in this old building: the stairs creaked, the lights flickered, the neighbors argued over trash. But recently, people began to notice something odd.
Every morning—the same thing. Crows sat on the third-floor windowsill. They cawed, pushed, and beat their wings, as if waiting for a signal. They chased them away dozens of times, to no avail. They returned again and again, as if tied to something.
At first, it seemed like a joke, then a bad omen. Rumor had it that an old woman lived in the apartment and fed the birds, but no one had seen her for a long time. At night, a quiet flapping of wings could be heard—as if the crows had never left.
One day, the residents decided to check. They knocked on the door—silence. Then several people walked around the house and cautiously peered inside through the window.
😨😲…And what they saw truly shocked them.․․

The apartment was silent. The air was heavy, smelling of tea and dust. On the table was a cup of half-drunk tea, newspapers neatly arranged, and a blanket folded over the back of a chair.
It looked as if the owner was about to return from the next room.
“Strange…” someone whispered.
They exchanged glances and carefully opened the bedroom door.
On the bed, between neatly made pillows, lay an elderly woman. She seemed to be simply sleeping, but the deathly silence made everything immediately clear. On the bedside table were a pair of glasses, an open book, and a plate of bread crumbs.
The crows seemed to return there every day—who knows, out of habit or some kind of birdlike memory. Perhaps they were simply waiting for her, as they had before, when she came to the window and tossed them pieces of bread.
When the neighbors silently left the apartment, the familiar cawing could be heard again outside.
