The sunlight kissed her cheek before the day began,
Soft fingers of gold slipping through the curtains,
Dancing in whispers across her skin
Elena stirred, eyes fluttering like fragile wings,
As the world outside hummed its gentle morning song.
The melody of distant traffic,
The murmur of leaves stirred by a breeze—
It all seemed to weave together,
Lulling her from the depths of sleep.
She lay still, caught between dreams and waking,
The warmth of the sun cradling her in its soft embrace.
Yet the light, though tender, brought with it a certain weight—
A reminder of the world beyond her bed,
Where the silence would break,
Where the truth she feared would soon echo once more.She closed her eyes, wishing for just a few more moments,
Before facing the day,
Before facing him.

"Mama....."
The word slipped from his lips like a fragile whisper, barely breaking the stillness of the room. His voice, soft and uncertain, reached her ears, tugging at the strings of her heart. Elena turned, her eyes meeting his, and in that moment, the world seemed to pause—just the two of them, connected by the quiet call of her name.

She will take him into her embrace with a soft smile
