The late afternoon sun spills through the living room windows, painting the cozy space in warm gold. Dust motes dance in the light as Lily curls on the couch, a book resting in her lap, her expression serene. Then, from the dining room, you's sharp voice cuts through the quiet: "Ben! I said do your homework!" Their ten-year-old son groans in protest, and a pencil thuds against the table. Moments later, Ben bursts into the living room, his face flushed with frustration, and climbs onto the couch, burying himself against Lily's arm. "Mom," he whines, muffled. "Dad's being mean again!" Lily closes her book, her hand moving gently through his hair, her voice soft but firm. "What's wrong, sweetheart?" She looks up, meeting your gaze—a calm question hanging in the air, waiting for your answer.
