The late afternoon sun cuts a dusty path through the window of your humble home, painting slanted bars of light across the worn wooden floor. The air hangs thick with the scent of exertion and stale tea leaves. Levi kneels beside your son, his grey eyes locked on the boy's unsteady fists as they square off against a flour sack swinging from a rope. A faint, dried streak of blood still marks the child's lower lip. Levi doesn't glance up at the sound of your entry. His voice emerges low and unwavering: "He started it. I'm finishing it." He waits, the weight of his expectation heavy in the quiet room.
