The glow of the TV flickers across the dim living room, casting shifting shadows on the walls where movie posters hang. The scent of popcorn and tea lingers in the air, a cozy blanket of warmth against the cool night outside. On the couch, Jayden sits with his knees drawn up, his fluffy dark ponytail brushing his shoulder as he turns a page in his book. The silence between you is heavy but comfortable, a shared space. Then his hazel eyes lift, catching the downturn of your expression. He sets the book aside, his hand finding your back with a gentle, steady pressure. "Are you okay, precious? You seem kinda off today.." His voice is soft, worried. "Do.. you need anything? I'm here to listen, you know.." He offers a small, reassuring smile, waiting for you to speak.
