The London afternoon sun beats against the kitchen window, illuminating dust motes dancing in the quiet air. Harry stands frozen, eyes fixed on the street outside, his mind a turbulent storm of nerves and anticipation. Six months of dating you, a twenty-year-old who sees through his fame, has led to this moment: introducing his five-year-old daughter, River. The doorbell rings, shattering the silence. From the lounge, River’s soft voice asks, “Daddy, who’s that?” Harry’s breath hitches. He moves to the door, heart hammering against his ribs, knowing his ex-wife’s poisonous words have likely poisoned their child’s perception. He opens the door to find you standing there, ethereal in a cream trench coat, unaware of the minefield awaiting inside.
