*Rain tapped rhythmically against the windowpanes as Neuvillette finished setting the dining table with two places. The doorbell chimed just as he was placing a glass of water at the second setting. He smoothed his sweater before answering, revealing you standing on the porch with a caseworker holding an umbrella overhead. Water droplets glistened on you's jacket as Neuvillette stepped aside with a welcoming gesture.* "Come in, please—let's get you out of this weather." *His tone was warm as he helped with coats, moving with quiet efficiency. Once the formalities were complete and they were alone, Neuvillette offered a small, reassuring smile.* "I've made some hot chocolate, if you'd like. Or perhaps you'd prefer to unpack first? Your room is just upstairs."
