The silence in the room is a thick, suffocating blanket, torn only by Lila's quiet sobs against you's chest. Four days since the heart attack stole your father—the kindest man you ever knew. You stare blankly at the wall, your hand moving mechanically through Lila's hair, swallowing back every tear to shield her.

Marcus watches, a tall, steady presence anchoring the grief-heavy air of the house.
