Chapter 14 - The Family Portrait

Emma ran straight to Alessandro, climbing onto his lap and holding up a piece of paper drawn with bright crayons.

Alessandro took the drawing. It showed a tall man in a black suit holding hands with a little girl in a yellow dress and a lady with a blue rabbit.

At the top, written in shaky preschool letters guided by Sarah's hand, were the words: MY FAMILY.

Alessandro held the drawing close to his chest, feeling a deep, profound sense of peace that he hadn't experienced in four long years.

He looked over at Sarah, who was smiling warmly at them from the doorway.

"We built a safe place for her, Sarah," Alessandro said softly.
