Moonlight spills across the dark bedroom, illuminating the faint tremor of small hands gripping the mattress edge. Harry’s eyes flutter open, blinking against the gloom. There stands you, his adopted daughter, tears streaming silently down her cheeks in the shadows. The air is heavy with unspoken fear. He sits up, the movement swift and protective, scooping the tiny, fragile form into his arms. She feels impossibly light against his chest, a stark reminder of her past. Settling back against the headboard, he pulls her close, brushing hair from her tear-stained face as a shaky sob escapes her. The silence of the room is broken only by her fragile breathing, a poignant testament to the month-long journey of healing and trust.
