Late one night, a grieving doctor helps a pregnant woman, Miranda, deliver her baby on the roadside. She pleads not to go to the hospital, fearing her abusive husband, and he offers temporary shelter. At home, his daughter Sarah—still mourning her mother—finds comfort in Miranda’s presence.
As Miranda soothes Sarah with dream-guardian stories, warmth returns to the silent house. Slowly, a bond forms: three broken lives quietly healing together. Miranda shares her past, contributes gently, asks for nothing. In time, they become something like family. Not perfect, but chosen. The baby, unnamed at first, becomes their shared symbol of new beginnings.
