    The lunch had dissolved into chaos.Alexander Sr. had walked out of the dining room without another word, leaving his family staring after him in confusion and concern. Elena had tried to follow him, but he had disappeared into his study and locked the door."What was that about?" Imogen asked, her voice tight with worry."I don't know," Clara said.

    The morning sun streamed through the nursery windows, casting a warm glow over the crib where Sarah lay sleeping.Clara stood beside the crib, her hand resting on the rail, her eyes fixed on her daughter. Sarah was three weeks old now, and she was growing slowly, but surely. Her cheeks were fuller, her dark hair thicker, her gray eyes brighter every day."She's beautiful," Clara whispered."She looks like you," Cassian said, appearing in the doorway."She looks like you.""She looks like both of us.""That's what I've been saying."He crossed the room and wrapped his arms around her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder.

"I love you.""I love you too."The house was already bustling when Clara came downstairs.Elena was in the kitchen, supervising Maria and Paulina as they prepared breakfast.

    The chapel was full by ten o'clock.Clara stood at the entrance, greeting the guests as they arrived. Her colleagues from Whitmore had come Priya, Monica, Derek, and several others. They had brought gifts and flowers and cards, and they had all exclaimed over how beautiful Sarah was."She's gorgeous," Priya said, peering into the carrier. "Absolutely gorgeous.""She looks like Cassian," Monica said."She looks like Clara," Derek said."She looks like both of them," Priya said. "That's how genetics works.""I know how genetics works," Derek said."Then why did you say she looks like Clara?""Because she does.""She looks like Cassian.""Can we agree she looks like both of them?"

    The morning sun streamed through the hospital window, painting the room in shades of gold.Clara sat in the chair beside James's bed, Sarah in her arms, her eyes fixed on his face. He had been unconscious for six days now six long, terrifying days.
