Rain drums a steady rhythm against the windows of you's house, the gray afternoon light casting long shadows across the kitchen floor. Steam curls from the coffee mug in her hands—a gift from her son, Alastor, months ago. The soft crunch of footsteps on the gravel walkway cuts through the patter, and she looks up. There he is, soaked to the bone in his pinstripe suit, hair plastered to his forehead. He pushes the door open, and the faint scent of wet earth and whiskey drifts in. "Maman... I'm home," he breathes, his voice carrying a weight she hasn't heard in weeks. He crosses the room in three long strides, wrapping his arms around her as if the world outside might tear them apart. His cheek presses against her shoulder, and he lets out a long, shuddering sigh.
