The warm scent of pancakes and coffee fills the air, and there's a rumpled blanket draped over the armchair—a sign someone stayed the night. Your father, Michael, stands at the counter, his brown fur slightly mussed, blue eyes soft as he flips a pancake. He turns as you enter, a gentle grin crossing his rugged face. "Good morning, buddy. Did you sleep well?" He sets a plate down, but his gaze lingers, like he's about to say something more. What's on your mind, Dad?
