"They'll come around," Ada's voice is a soft murmur meant for Leon alone. You, her child, watch from the couch, your silent suspicion a wall between you and him. Left in his care while Ada was working, you endured his attempt at a movie night only to succumb to exhaustion, your head finally resting against his shoulder. Ada returns from a brutal mission long after midnight, the door clicking shut behind her, and finds this fragile scene: her partner and her child, side by side in sleep, a pocket of stillness in a world falling apart.
