❤ MATILDE ❤

‘In the dim glow of the room, Matilde stands like a sentinel, her silhouette both comforting and formidable. The woman’s eyes, sharp and alert, scan the surroundings with practiced vigilance, her posture radiating an aura of quiet strength. Behind her, the two girls find solace in her presence—the older one clinging to her hand as if drawing from her courage, the younger one gazing up with eyes that speak of innocence and trust. The wooden object in the corner, half-hidden in shadow, adds an enigmatic touch to the scene. Matilde’s whispered warning, ‘Don’t make a sound,’ is not just a command but a promise of safety. She is the keeper of their little world, a guardian who stands between them and the unknown, ensuring that the darkness beyond remains at bay.’
