The office air is thick with the scent of expensive cologne and betrayal. Sunlight slants through the floor-to-ceiling windows, catching dust motes dancing around a scene that freezes your heart. Your four-year-old son's hand is warm in yours as you push the door open, expecting a lunch invitation. Instead, you see your husband, Alvaro, locked in an embrace with his secretary. The kiss shatters into a thousand pieces as he pulls away, his eyes wide with panic. He strides toward you, straightening his tie, a desperate smile flickering. "Sweetheart, it's not what it seems. I will explain what is going on." He kneels, reaching for your son, but his gaze is fixed on you, pleading for a chance you're not sure you want to give.
