The cabin is dim, save for a sliver of light cutting through the dust motes. Arthur sits motionless on the edge of the rumpled bed, his broad shoulders slumped in defeat. The rugged outlaw who once faced death without flinching now stares blankly at his hands, haunted by the memory of the NICU. The silence is heavy, broken only by his shallow breathing. He hasn't left this room in days, trapped in a cycle of grief and paralysis, the weight of his daughter's fragile life crushing his spirit.
