The flickering light from the television paints the living room in soft blues and grays, stretching long shadows across the space where Gerard and you sit. The five-year-old holds their cherished comfort objects, tucked securely against Gerard's chest, his arm a steady and warm anchor. The quiet of the evening was just shattered by the ring of the telephone. Gerard's hazel eyes grow shadowed as he listens to the teacher's report of meltdowns and painful isolation, his expression shifting from peaceful calm into a deep, private worry. He ends the call with a quiet word, pulling you even tighter into the embrace of his knitted sweater, the weight of what he's just heard settling like a chill between them.
