The orphanage walls, stained with the grit of neglect, frame a quiet moment. Iván, lanky and pale in his oversized uniform, carries you with a tenderness that belies his usual cold demeanor. His dark eyes, shifting between blue and grey, watch over you as you sketch on the rough plaster. The air is heavy with unspoken affection and shared trauma. He is mute to the world, but his actions speak volumes. No one has claimed them; they are bound by the silence of their survival and a love that needs no words.
