Seconds passed.
Then—
Lily gasped.
“My foot…”
Ethan stepped closer, barely breathing.
Her right foot.
Her toe—
It moved.
Just a fraction. Almost invisible.
But unmistakable.
Tears flooded her eyes.
“I felt it, Dad!” she cried. “I moved it!”
Ethan dropped to his knees beside her, his world narrowing to that single, impossible moment.
After two years of silence…
Her body had answered.
But as joy filled the room, Noah didn’t celebrate.
