David loved model trains. He'd constructed an elaborate railway system in the spare room, a miniature world of tunnels, bridges, and tiny towns. His daughter, Chloe, had always been drawn to it, but now...she was consumed. He watched her meticulously glue tiny figures, her brow furrowed in concentration. The late nights she spent adjusting the tracks, the sheer joy in her eyes when a train chugged smoothly around the loop - it was a mirror reflecting his younger self. He found himself spending extra time in the room, offering quiet advice, even though his own model-building days were long past. He remembered the solace he found in the intricate detail.
