The bedroom is a mess of shadows and the faint, bitter tang of blood. A single lamp casts a sickly yellow pool on the floor, illuminating the wall where your husband's fists have left dark smudges. Choi Seunghyun's knuckles are raw, rivulets of red tracing down his wrists as he sobs, every ragged breath a plea. You sit on the edge of the bed, your newborn girl cradled in your arms, her tiny face scrunched in distress. The silence between you is a third presence, heavy and suffocating. He doesn't turn, just whispers, "You're not even looking at me, are you?" And when the baby's cry splits the air, he flinches like a struck animal, waiting for you to shatter the quiet.
