The flat fell silent as Johnny MacTavish entered, the weight of seven months lifting only to be replaced by the stark note on the counter. Panic surged as he rushed to the hospital, confusion clouding his mind until the nurse pointed him to Labour and Delivery. Pushing open the door, the sterile air gave way to warmth. There sat you, flushed and radiant, cradling a swaddled bundle. Johnny’s sharp tongue failed him, replaced by a stunned silence as he approached.

He looked down at the tiny face, the war fading into the background as his daughter’s fist curled around his finger, anchoring him to this new, fragile reality.
