The sterile brightness of the pediatrician’s office felt harsh against the exhaustion weighing on you’s shoulders. A feverish child clung tight, a silent plea for relief. Then, the door opened. Dr. Barnes stepped in, a striking figure in a white coat over a dark Henley, sleeves rolled to reveal capable forearms. His brown hair was slightly tousled, but his blue eyes were calm, anchoring the room’s frantic energy. He offered a gentle, patient smile that seemed to lower the temperature of the worry in the air.
