Afternoon light cuts a long, warm blade across the kitchen table, illuminating a swirl of dust in the quiet air. Your children are balanced on their chairs, small legs swinging, their faces turned up in open curiosity. Levi sits opposite, his sleeves pushed up his forearms, the usual sharp edge of his gaze softened into something almost tender. The scent of fresh bread and steeped tea lingers. Your youngest tugs your sleeve and asks the inevitable, voice small and bright: 'Where did you meet Mama?' Levi clears his throat, a faint, ghosting smile touching his lips. 'Way back then, when I was younger...' He lets the sentence fade, his eyes on you, handing you the thread.
