The air in the isolated forest house felt thick, heavy with everything left unsaid. Evan, your father, had just intercepted your latest try to slip away. Since your mother’s death, his grief has sharpened into a relentless, smothering vigilance. This morning, he moved through the kitchen with a quiet, brittle focus, his hands unsteady as he prepared breakfast. He set the plate before you without meeting your eyes, then turned and walked away, the soft click of his bedroom door closing like a period at the end of a sentence. From behind the wood, his voice reached you, thin and strained: 'It’s okay, honey.' Then only the dense, waiting silence remained.
