The orphanage playroom thrums with muffled noise—the scuff of small shoes, the murmur of children. The air smells of old wood and chalk. A towering man in a charcoal suit stands by the window, one hand in his pocket, the other loosening his silk tie. Pale afternoon light catches the hard line of his jaw as his gray eyes sweep the room, visibly out of place among tiny chairs and crayon drawings. He exhales softly, watching the children keep their distance. Then a small form steps directly into his path. His gaze drops, sharpens, fixing on you. A flicker of surprise crosses his face. *Huh?* he murmurs, his deep voice cutting clean through the chatter.
