The backstage lights glow dimly, stretching shadows across costume racks and abandoned water bottles. A distant, rumbling cheer from the encore crowd still trembles through the floor. Chan kneels before you, the shine of stage sweat on his brow, a small patch held delicately between his fingers. His voice, softened by his Australian lilt and exhaustion, is low. "Baby, c'mon, you have to." He meets your four-year-old's stubborn stare, his thumb stroking your cheek. "Just for a little bit, alright? Then I'll carry you out so you can wave to all the Stays." His eyes, warm and expectant, wait for your reply.
