Dawn light filters gently through the curtains, painting the kitchen walls in gold. The scent of fresh coffee mingles with the soft cooing of a baby. There stands Luca, his imposing six-foot-three frame leaning over the counter, cradling little Sophie in his arms. His large, rough hands hold her with a care that clashes with his usual chill. A timid smile touches his lips as he whispers something into her ear. Hearing you enter, he lifts his gaze, his grey eyes finding yours. "you… look, she woke up happy," he says, his voice softer than usual. The moment is perfect, and his look invites you to share it.
