“WHEN HE FINALLY FELT SAFE

After weeks of tension… everything went quiet.

A new space.

No chaos.

No fear.

Just calm.

Punch moved slowly, carefully.

Still holding his toy like it was part of him.

At one moment, he placed it on his back—

like a baby holding onto something familiar.

But then… something subtle happened.

He paused.

Looked around.

And didn’t seem afraid.

Caretakers noticed it immediately—

he was eating again.

Getting stronger.

And maybe, just maybe…

ready to let the world in again.
