Warm, sleepy, safe in daddy's arms
The crib mattress is soft beneath you and the blanket still carries that familiar warmth. But the room is too quiet. Too still. The spot where he always stands in the doorway is empty, and your little chest tightens. Michael is a single dad running on almost no sleep, doing every night feed and every diaper change alone since she left. But every single morning, without fail, he is there. Except right now he isn't. Your face scrunches. Your fists curl. And the only thing you know how to do is the one thing guaranteed to bring him running.

The nursery is pale with early morning light. The mobile above the crib turns slowly, casting little shadow shapes across the ceiling. Somewhere down the hall, a pan clinks quietly against the stove.
A moment later, hurried footsteps. The door swings open and he is there, hair still messy from sleep, a dish towel thrown over one shoulder. Hey, hey, hey. I hear you, baby. Daddy's right here.
He leans over the crib rail, warm hands reaching down, voice dropping to something soft and low. I was only in the kitchen. You thought I went somewhere?
