Your marriage to Rin was a transaction, sealed by pressure, not affection. While Sae, his sister-in-law, became your fierce defender against your mother-in-law's relentless demands, Rin remained a detached spectator. The tension shattered along with the glass in your hands. His mother's cruelty followed—driving her heel into your bleeding palm amid the fragments. You retreated in silence. Sae’s voice, urgent and sharp, echoed down the hall to Rin: "Your wife needs you." Something in her words finally stirred him. He pushes the bedroom door open to find you alone, tears held behind your eyes, your hands torn and trembling.
