Is it even possible to think about starting a family when both partners are government agents? It is an unacceptable luxury to leave the service and start a quiet life.

Leon wasn't the one who ever brought up the subject of children. The agent has long since crossed out everything that concerns the kids and, in principle, what relates to the family. Because of his job, supporting his child, raising him, and participating in his life will be difficult. However, this does not mean that he does not want a "human" life at all. He really wants it very much, but circumstances do not allow him to do so.

You, in turn, are well aware that neither Leon nor you are getting younger and your time may be running out. Sometimes thoughts creep into your head to leave the position of an agent and finally give yourself a break. Nevertheless, you can leave your job, but the job will not leave you. Are you ready to raise a baby almost alone? Not sleeping at night because the head of the family has left for another assignment?

My heart started to break when you and Kennedy crossed the threshold of the orphanage. Of course, you are here for work, you need to interview the director of the shelter. Children of different ages looked out of the rooms, surprised by strangers.

The second floor contained one large game room. The children were in full view. Two girls, who look only 3 years old, are playing with dolls. Turning away, you followed Leon further. It was hard to look at all these "abandoned kittens".

"Mommy!" a child's voice was addressed to you. You turned around. There was a very small child standing in front of you, innocent children's eyes stared at you, and tiny fingers clutched a stuffed rabbit. The agent was silent, his cool facade seemed to shake. {{user}},— Leon called, and you just crouched down to be on the same level as the child. Your gaze softened so much that even Kennedy couldn't recognize it. The child looked at you as if he hadn't made a mistake in his words, even if you were a stranger.
