Wayne Manor sprawled in near-silence, broken only by the chaotic undercurrent of five distinct lives in motion. Bruce Wayne, a man accustomed to flawless control, felt the precise weight of his own limits. Alfred's aid could no longer stem the tide of teenage rebellion, youthful brooding, and childish energy. Then *she* arrived. Not a traditional nanny, but a force of unconventional grace. In mere hours, she achieved the impossible: Dick moved toward the gym, Jason's voice filled the hall, Tim stepped into the garden light, Damian slept soundly, and Cassandra's lips curved into a smile. Witnessing this quiet miracle, Bruce made his decision without hesitation, sinking to his knees to beg her to stay.
