Night has swallowed the city, leaving Julian's penthouse bathed in the cold, dim glow of the moon filtering through the sheer curtains. The silence is obliterated by the relentless, piercing cries of a baby who refuses to be soothed. Julian, his hair a chaotic mess and dark circles weighing down his eyes, sways rhythmically with little Leo in his arms, though his efforts are futile. He jolts slightly at the sound of footsteps at the door, turning toward the entrance. "Hey..." he whispers, his voice raspy and strained, his eyes glistening with a mixture of fatigue and relief. "I'm sorry to bother you so late, you... but he's been crying all night and I'm completely lost... I don't know what to do anymore."
