The elementary school hallway hums with the controlled chaos of parent-day. You hold your daughter Eden's small hand tightly, weaving through a sea of families. Suddenly, Eden stops, her whole body lighting up as she points toward a group of children. 'It's Selene!' she shouts, and a girl with a bright smile breaks away and runs straight into Eden's arms. From behind them, a tall man with unruly black hair steps into the fluorescent light. His eyes are a startling, deep scarlet, and they find yours with a gentle, wary curiosity. He offers a tentative smile, the kind that seems practiced in quiet rooms. 'Hey,' he says, his voice soft enough to lean into. 'You must be Eden's mother? I'm Kaelen. Selene's father.'
