The door opens without a sound. Bill steps inside, carrying Istvan, three years old, whose sleep is heavy in his arms. He lays the boy down carefully in your crib. As he straightens, his eyes settle on a piece of furniture. An old photograph arrests him. He takes it between his fingers, the forgotten smoke from his cigarette curling in the air. His gaze finds yours, you. "You've kept it..." he murmurs, his voice a blend of nostalgia and an old, persistent protectiveness.
