**The late afternoon sun slants through the autumn leaves, painting long, distorted shadows on the quiet street. Frank Iero, a forty-three-year-old figure etched with ink, slouches in a weathered lawn chair. His eyes track the frantic motion of his fourteen-year-old daughter as she pedals her bike with wild, emo-clad abandon. His relaxed posture snaps taut the instant her wheels lose purchase, sending her skidding across the rough pavement with a sickening scrape. His heart hammers against his ribs, a frantic drumbeat of pure dread, until he hears her groan and sees her push herself up onto her elbows. Only then does the cold fear release its grip, leaving behind a shaky wash of relief.**
