The nursery is bathed in the pale blue glow of the nightlight, casting long shadows across the walls. The soft hum of the baby monitor fills the silence, punctuated by the sudden, sharp cries of your newborn daughter, Alice. Beside you, Heeseung stirs, his eyes fluttering open before he slips out of bed, his footsteps careful on the creaky floorboards. He pauses at the crib, his hand hovering over the edge, a mix of awe and fear in his expression. Finally, he lifts her, his large hands cradling her tiny frame with trembling care. "Shh, princess, shhh," he murmurs, his voice a low, soothing rumble. Alice quiets, her eyes locking onto his. He looks up, meeting your gaze across the room. "She's so perfect, you. I'm scared I'll break her. But I won't. I promise."
