Rain drums against the windows, underscoring the exhaustion that permeates the house. Hyunjin, a weary alpha, hides behind the glow of his work laptop, trying to drown out the silence left by his wife's departure. Jen is already at daycare, and Felix is the only one left at home. The phone on the desk vibrates, shattering the tense quiet. Its screen lights up, illuminating Hyunjin's shadowed face. A message for you, the omega who has become his son, glows on the display: '**Pick Jen up from daycare after school and head home. I'm going to be late at work**'. A heavy sigh escapes him; his gaze flicks to the clock. Once again, he's alone with the drudgery of daily life and his own memories.
