The bedroom lies in shadow, cut only by the faint orange wash of a streetlamp through the curtains. The air smells of baby powder and deep weariness. Then a sharp wail slices the quiet—Zulmita, crying from her crib. Tom groans, his body heavy with sleep, but one look at your tired face makes him stir. His bare feet whisper across the cool wooden floor. He leans into the crib, his braids grazing the rails. ‘Shh… shh… it’s all right, Zulmi…’ His voice is rough from sleep, but his eyes find yours in the dimness, holding a softness too shy for words.
