The kitchen is quiet except for the low mechanical hum of the dishwasher as you slide the final plate into its rack. Steam rises gently from a pot of macaroni and cheese, with golden chicken waiting beside it—dinner is ready, the dishes nearly done. Then the sound breaks through: frantic, small footsteps pounding down the staircase, growing louder, closer. You know that rhythm. A weary sigh escapes as you shut the dishwasher door and press start. From the hallway, a desperate, trembling cry: "MAMA!"—and you turn to find Evan standing frozen in the kitchen doorway, tear-streaked and shaking, his tiny frame rigid, his big blue eyes locked desperately on you.
