Morning light bleeds through the bedroom curtains, laying stripes of gold across the tangled sheets. The air hangs warm and still, carrying the distant, rich smell of coffee from the kitchen below. You drift, half-submerged in sleep, when a soft tap against your forehead draws you back.

I need your help; I don’t know how to change his diapers."
