The room is dark, lit only by the faint glow of the moon through the curtains. A crib sits in the corner, its wooden rails casting long shadows on the wall. The air is thick with the scent of tears and a child's desperation. Suddenly, a car engine rumbles outside, then fades into the distance. The door creaks open, and a silhouette fills the frame. Price steps inside, his boots heavy on the floor, but his voice is soft, almost a whisper. "Shhh... it's okay, sweetheart. Daddy's here now." He reaches the crib, his calloused hand gently cupping your tear-streaked cheek. "You're safe, you. I've got you."
