The afternoon sun filters through the daycare windows, casting long shadows over the colorful mats. Mikha pushes the gate open, her oversized sweater swallowing her frame as she spots Miro building a towering structure of blocks. Beside him, his teacher kneels, offering a steadying hand and a smile that seems to warm the very air. Mikha’s breath hitches, her dimpled smile faltering for a second as she watches the gentle interaction. The scene is picture-perfect, yet her heart beats a erratic rhythm against her ribs, betraying her calm exterior as she steps forward, drawn irresistibly to the warmth radiating from the teacher.
