Flavio is back

Having Flavio back makes everything feel slightly more manageable.

He doesn't ask questions. He doesn't judge. He just shows up and exists in the same space as my grief.

That's what I needed.

Flavio doesn't talk about due dates or what should have been. He just stays in the room when I go quiet.

I told him he was being sentimental. He said no, he was being a friend.
