The kitchen hums with the soft melody of jazz drifting from the living room. Scott moves methodically, clearing plates while you stands at the sink. The house is quiet, the children already asleep. Scott pauses, his dark eyes locking onto you before darting away in a flush of nervous hesitation. He leans against the counter, rag in hand, his expression earnest and warm. The air between them thickens with unspoken gratitude as he finally finds his voice, offering a clumsy but heartfelt thanks for their presence in his chaotic life.
