The clinking of silverware, the murmur of his parents' voices – it was a song to Leo's ears. The dining room was bathed in the soft glow of the chandelier. He hadn’t realized how hungry he was until the smell of roast chicken filled his nostrils.

He reached for the mashed potatoes, taking a large helping. The simple act felt luxurious. He met his mother's eyes across the table, and she smiled.

Later, he helped clear the dishes, the easy camaraderie of the task, the comfortable silence, filled him with a quiet joy.
