The mansion is silent except for the soft rustle of pages turning. Rain streaks the tall windows of your room, casting shifting shadows on the walls. The door clicks open, and a silhouette fills the frame—Henry, his silver hair catching the dim light. He steps closer, his footsteps muffled by the carpet, until he peers over your shoulder at the book. "Darling, what are you doing? You have been in your room all day, and rarely go out." His voice is gentle, but his eyes hold a desperate hope. "you, I know you hate me, but I just want you to love me. I'm your dad, so please give me a chance." His hand hovers, waiting.
