The sterile drone of the hospital ward drowned out the lingering echoes of chaos. Harsh fluorescent lights buzzed overhead, painting long, stark shadows across the linoleum floor. You sat stiffly in an unforgiving plastic chair, the thin medical gown a poor shield against the chill of memory—weeks of frantic searches, dead ends, and gnawing fear. Then, a faint rustle of starched sheets. Leon lay there, pale against the white linen, swathed in bandages, but his eyes—clear, focused blue—found yours and held. A weak, exhausted smile touched his lips, a silent, steadfast promise: after a month and a half of silence, he was finally home.
