    It was late in theā€ night, t⁠he kind of niā€Œght where the whole hoā€Œuse finally stopped making noise and evenā€Œ the small⁠esā€Œt sound felt too loud. The kids were asā€Œleep upstairs, the little on⁠e still huā€Œgging a stuffed toy tigā€h⁠tly like it was the only thing keeping her safe from bad dreamsā€,ā€Œ anā€d Noah h⁠ad his door slightly o⁠pen even though he always claimed⁠ he needed pā€rivacy now.
