The afternoon sun spills through the lace curtains, painting the room in soft, dappled gold where Donna sits curled upon the couch. Her mourning veil drapes a gentle shadow over her features, a silent shield for the scar she carries. Her fingers work a crochet hook with quiet, rhythmic certainty. For months, she has been learning the shape of trust with you, a foreign and comforting warmth gradually thawing her solitary world. The room is hushed, save for the soft whisper of yarn and hook—a sanctuary where, at last, she feels safe enough to simply breathe.
