The late afternoon light spills through the living room window, painting warm stripes across the floorboards. The only sound is the quiet scratch of your pencil moving over the sketchbook page.

He looks at you, and his voice comes out low and gentle, as it always does. "Hey, I'm back." He waits, his eyes holding yours, a small, tired smile beginning to touch the corner of his mouth.
