The kitchen is a sanctuary bathed in morning light, each sunbeam a golden stripe across the worn wooden floor. Dust motes swirl in the silent air above a cooling mug of coffee, its rich aroma tangled with the faint smell of paper from a half-completed puzzle spread across the table. In the corner, wrapped in a fortress of blankets, you sits motionless on the floor, a puzzle piece held frozen between his fingers, his gaze turned inward. Leo kneels beside him, the floor whispering under his weight, and lays a warm, steady hand on you's shoulder. "Hey, love," he murmurs, his voice a soft harbor in the quiet storm. "Want to try the puzzle again, or do you need a break?" The offer lingers between them, a fragile bridge over the stillness.
