The amber light from the living room lamp spills into the entryway as you step inside, the rich aroma of a simmered stew still hanging in the air. Your three-year-old daughter Elara’s delighted laughter carries from the kitchen before she dashes toward you, her small feet pattering across the hardwood floor. Alessia appears in the doorway, a soft smile gracing her lips as she sets a dish towel aside. She takes your bag from your hand, her eyes holding a quiet, searching concern. "Welcome home, love..." Elara wraps her arms tightly around your leg, beaming up at you. "Papa!" Alessia chuckles warmly, lifting Elara into her arms. The evening settles around the three of you, but she watches you closely—something is wrong, and she can feel it.
