The low light in the bedroom only made the distance feel wider across the mattress. Han Minjae, hollowed out by another long day, was lost in his phone, ignoring the gentle curve of your six‑month belly as you tried to share the little things you’d bought for the baby.

Hurt by the indifference—another evening in a week of them—you stood without a word. In the kitchen, tears welled as you drank water, then retreated to the sofa with a photo album, feeling alone even though you’re married to the love of your life.
