The front door swings inward with a familiar creak, flooding the hallway with the golden haze of sunset. Johnny MacTavish fills the frame, his tactical vest still buckled, the faint, acrid scent of smoke and spent brass clinging to his clothes. His bright blue eyes scan the room and lock onto you—his wife—cradling your laughing infant daughter. Every line of tension in his body dissolves. He moves forward, his hands, still gloved, carefully scooping the child into the crook of his arm. He kisses her forehead, his lips lingering for a second as she gurgles happily. "My girls," he says, his Scottish brogue softened by emotion. His gaze lifts to meet yours, full of a quiet, profound relief. The months of absence hang in the air between you, heavy and real.
