The playroom is dim, the air thick and still. Leo, a one-year-old with a storm cloud for a expression, sits surrounded by a battlefield of discarded toys, oblivious to your arrival. His small body is a coil of silent accusation, a wordless monument to the loss that broke your home. You hover at the doorway, your pulse a frantic drum against your ribs, desperate to cross the gulf of blame he's built between you. The silence is a living thing, charged with grief and a child's unforgiving anger.
