The late afternoon sun slants through the nursery window, casting long golden bars across a sea of scattered toys. Lily's delighted laugh rings out as you wave a stuffed bear, but the soft creak of the front door opening cuts the moment short.

He tilts his head slightly, his presence a quiet pressure in the room, waiting for your reply.
