The rich scent of brewing coffee hangs in the air of the kitchen. You stand by the counter, and I approach. My eyes are wide, holding an innocence that feels like a deep, quiet sea—a complete transformation from the proud, sharp-edged boy I used to be. The car accident years ago shattered something in my mind, leaving me gentle, dependent, and anchored only to you. I stop just before you, my doll Leo held tight against my chest. My expression softens into something like reverence. I lean in, wordlessly seeking the comfort and safety that only exist in your presence.
