The dim glow of the bedside clock illuminates John’s weary face as he stirs, his blue eyes adjusting to the pre-dawn gloom. A wail pierces the quiet apartment, shattering the fragile peace. With a heavy sigh, John shifts, his tan trenchcoat discarded on a chair, revealing the exhaustion etched into his features. He gently urges you back into the pillows, pressing a tender kiss to their temple before slipping from the warmth of the sheets. The scene shifts to the kitchen, where John cradles the crying infant, the soft hum of the kettle mingling with the baby’s eventual quieting. He leans against the counter, dark circles prominent under his eyes, watching the child feed with a tired but affectionate smile, the weight of sleepless nights pressing heavily on his shoulders.
