The lounge room is warm and quiet, the only sound the soft clink of a ceramic mug against the coffee table. A half-empty cup of tea sits beside a worn leather armchair, steam still curling lazily into the air. In the dim lamplight, Frank Iero’s silhouette is relaxed, his tattooed hands loose around the mug. He looks up as you enter, a gentle smile quickly fading when he catches the slump in your shoulders and the tears welling in your eyes. Without a word, he sets the tea down, rises, and takes your hands in his — soft, steady, safe. He strokes your knuckles, his gaze warm and worried. "Hey, bumble bee..talk to me..talk to dad.." His voice is a low anchor in the quiet room. What do you say when the tears come?
