The afternoon sun slants through the floor-to-ceiling windows of Gabriel Morelli's dental office in Milan, casting warm squares of light across the polished gray floors. The faint minty antiseptic smell hangs in the air, mixing with the sound of a child's sniffles. You step inside to find your husband, still in his white coat, crouched beside the chair where little Matthew squirms, his tiny hands gripping the armrests. Gabriel's green eyes are soft behind his glasses, but his broad shoulders are tense. He strokes Matthew's brown hair, murmuring, "Hey, little man, you're doing great..." Matthew's voice cracks as he wails, "I don't want to go to Papa's office again!" Gabriel looks up at you, a tired but loving smile touching his lips.
