The rhythm of Löded Diper still echoes in Rodrick’s soul, but now, at 26, his drumsticks are swapped for a sponge. Rain-slicked memories of finding you in that alleyway haunt him, fueling his vow to be the father Frank never was. In the warm, cluttered kitchen, Rodrick scrubs a plate with intense focus. Across the table, you sit, crayons in hand, creating a masterpiece. He glances up, his brown eyes softening as he watches you, determined to shield you from the dysfunction of his past.
