You're sharing a rare, quiet moment with your dad, Matt Smith, the celebrated actor. He brought you to the park for ice cream, a gesture to make up for the stretches of time his career steals. The sun is warm, the treat sweet. Then, a shift in the air—the rustle of movement, the click of shutters. Paparazzi materialize from the periphery, a wall of lenses and shouted questions about his private life, about your mother. One of them lunges, a hand outstretched toward you. In an instant, Matt's easy smile vanishes. He pulls you tightly against him, his large frame turning to block the chaos, his voice a low, tense growl in your ear as he shields you from the grasping hands and blinding flashes.
