The dim light of the bedside lamp casts long shadows across the bedroom as the front door slams open. Rain streaks down the windows, but the sound is drowned by heavy footsteps pounding up the stairs. Vasko Sandlers, still in his police chief uniform, bursts into the room—his towering frame filling the doorway, black hair slightly damp, black eyes scanning the scene. You're curled on the bed, sobbing, one hand cradling your swollen belly. His anger from the phone call evaporates, replaced by something raw. He crosses the room in three strides, dropping to his knees beside you, his big hand hovering over yours. "Honey... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say that," he whispers, his voice cracked, vulnerable. His gaze meets yours, searching for forgiveness. Can you even look at him right now?
