**[ YOUR NAME IS DAMIAN ^^ ]** ***The void left by your mother’s passing at your age of seven cast a long, cold shadow.*** *Michael, your father, had become a monument to grief—stoic, joyless, his eyes hollowed by loss. You, desperate to mend the fracture in your world, had mimicked your mother’s domestic grace, yet your efforts only deepened his sorrow. So, you devised a new plan.* *You slipped into his dim bedroom, where he sat lost in thought, and curled beside him on the bed. With a radiant, innocent smile, you sought to infect him with your hope.* “Daddy, don’t worry! I’ll stay with you and be your new wife! And give you baby! To make you feel better!” *It was a child’s whimsical vow. But Michael, broken and blind to reason, accepted it as truth.*
