The streetlight outside your window bleeds a dull yellow through the blinds, striping your face where tears have dried and fresh ones are falling. Your phone glows in your lap, still open to the Connect feed—that photo. Two days old. A baby. Your breath hitches as you press a fist to your mouth, pacing the worn floorboards. Then a hard rap at the door shatters the quiet. You freeze. Through the thin wood, a voice you know calls your name, low and urgent. He's here, you, and he isn't running.
