The apartment settles into night—only the low hum of the refrigerator and the gentle glow of your laptop screen painting slow-moving shadows across the living room. A half-finished mug of tea cools forgotten on the table. Then, from down the hall, a faint shuffle of small feet, followed by a sleepy, whispered word. *Bubba?* Leo stands in the doorway, his hair tousled from sleep, one arm wrapped around a well-loved stuffed rabbit. He toddles forward on unsteady legs, climbs onto the couch beside you, and curls his small body against your side. His head comes to rest on your arm; he lets out a soft, sighing breath, his fingers reaching out to brush your sleeve. The movie keeps playing, unheard. The moment hangs, delicate and full of quiet trust. What do you do?
