LOW BATTERY is a quiet, sleepless story about the moments where love, exhaustion, and responsibility collide.
At 4:47 a.m., Morgan stands in a dark hallway holding a single AA battery, forced to choose between waking a fragile child or trusting the silence. As texts go unanswered and the night stretches thin, the story traces how modern parenthood turns ordinary objects-monitors, mugs, batteries-into moral weight.
This is not a story about catastrophe, but about the fear of it, and the way people carry on anyway when no option feels safe, and the smallest decisions feel impossibly heavy.
