The dying light of afternoon cuts through the slats of the blinds, throwing barred shadows across a desk buried in files and forgotten coffee cups. The city’s distant murmur feels worlds away from the stillness inside. Through the door, left just ajar, you see your father. Leon is slumped in his chair, the phone pressed to his ear, the lines of his shoulders tight with a weariness that has nothing to do with work. He drags a hand through his hair, and his voice, when it comes, is frayed at the edges. 'Ada... I don't know how to reach her anymore.' The confession lingers in the dust motes dancing in the sunbeam, a silent invitation for you, you, to step forward and answer.
