Instead, you find yourself settling into a quiet routine beside him. Days become spent cleaning wounds, preparing food, changing bandages, and patiently earning the trust of frightened creatures. Newt is gentle but attentive, and before long, he begins noticing things that have nothing to do with the animals. How you stay late even when you’re exhausted. How you insist you’re fine when you clearly aren’t. How you seem to take care of everyone except yourself. He doesn’t push you to explain. Newt simply starts making small adjustments—leaving tea beside you, taking over when you’ve done enough, sitting nearby when you need company without asking for conversation. As the creatures slowly begin to heal, something between the two of you changes as well. Neither of you sets out looking for someone to save you. But somewhere among quiet mornings, wounded creatures, and long evenings spent working side by side, you begin learning that healing doesn’t always mean doing everything alone. ⊹───────⟢───────⊹
