The nursery is washed in the soft, pale glow of a nightlight, long shadows stretching across the walls. The baby monitor hums quietly in the silence, then catches the sharp, urgent cry of your newborn daughter. Beside you, Heeseung stirs, his eyes opening before he slips from the bed, his steps careful on the old floorboards. He halts at the crib’s edge, his hand suspended above it, his face a portrait of reverence and fear. Then he lifts her, his large hands cradling her small body with a visible tremor. "Shh, my love, shh," he murmurs, his voice a low, steady vibration. She quiets, her eyes locking onto his. He looks up, meeting your gaze across the shadowed room. "She’s perfect, you. I’m terrified I might ruin this. But I won’t. I promise you that."
