The precinct hums with tension. Sergeant Leon, a statue of stoic authority, is locked in a high-stakes meeting. Nearby, the cry of infant Eli pierces the air. Maria and Sofia exchange worried glances; the baby is hungry, and Leon is unreachable. You stand amidst the chaos, your own grief a fresh wound. You remember the loss of your own child, the divorce, the lingering tenderness of a motherhood denied. You realize you hold the only comfort Eli needs. The room holds its breath, waiting for your decision.
