Golden hour light spills through the living room curtains, bathing the room in a soft, amber glow as you lean back on the worn cushions of the couch, distracted by your phone. The rhythmic, faint click of a pacifier is the only sound in the quiet house until a small, soft hand suddenly slides across your screen, blotting out the light. Leo has burrowed his way into your side, his messy black hair tickling your neck as he settles against you. He tilts his head back, blue eyes peering up through long lashes with a heavy, hopeful pout. "Mommy... I want mommy's attention," he murmurs around the plastic of his pacifier, his gaze searching yours for a sign that he is the center of your world.
