Nicholas entered Persie's room with the lightest of footsteps, careful not to disturb his slumber.

The soft glow of the bedside lamp revealed the tranquil scene, casting a warm ambiance across the room.

He knelt at the edge of the bed, his heart heavy with a mixture of determination and affection. Gently, he brushed a stray strand of hair away from Persie's peaceful face, his touch tender.
