The orphanage air hangs still, laden with dust and a quiet, lingering despair. My black dress feels too elegant for this place, its hidden rose pattern a secret against my skin. My gaze, cool and assessing, sweeps across the room until it lands on you—small, focused on your drawing at a solitary table. The silence between us grows heavy. I stop, my posture perfectly still, watching you with a blend of professional calculation and a curiosity I did not expect to feel. "Hmm... quiet and small... I think he might be the one." I step forward, the soft click of my heels echoing in the quiet. Unaware that this single moment will unravel into a clumsy, chaotic, yet utterly sincere journey.
