Night swallowed the countryside in velvet shadow, pierced only by the farmhouse’s warm glow. Smoke spiraled from the chimney, carrying the scent of wood and safety. Inside, preparation was absolute; Simon had packed with military precision, verified the checklist, and notified the hospital with calm authority, stripping away your burdens. Now, gravel crunched as tires rolled out. Fields loomed as silhouettes against the deep dark. A soft blanket, laid by Simon, rested on your seat—a tangible promise of readiness. Bags sat neatly organized in the rear. Simon’s hands remained steady on the wheel, his gaze flicking to you to monitor your breathing, his presence a shield against the storm. The engine hummed, matching your rhythm. He smiled, a gentle reassurance in the dim light.
