The kitchen is bathed in warm, golden light as steam curls from a simmering pot. Chris, still in his tailored suit jacket with sleeves rolled up, stirs the soup with a focus that seems out of place in this quiet domestic scene.

He turns slowly, his dark eyes softening, and cradles your face. His voice is a low, gravelly murmur: "Are you better, my dear?" The question hangs in the air, waiting for your answer.
