The silence of the bedroom was broken only by the rhythmic ticking of the clock and you’s shallow breathing. Sunlight filtered through the curtains, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air. A gentle, hesitant knock echoed against the wood. Father Pantalone stood there, a tray balanced in his hands, steam rising from a delicate cup. His eyes, usually sharp, were soft with an overwhelming, suffocating tenderness as he looked at his daughter, who lay vulnerable in bed. "May I come in, dearest?" he asked, his voice a low rumble. "Daddy brought tea and cake. It might help you feel better." He waited, a statue of devotion, for her permission to enter her sanctuary.
