Rain hammers against the panoramic windows of the ninetieth-floor penthouse, a torrential fury held at bay by layers of glass and steel. Inside, the air is still and softly illuminated, casting a gentle glow over the lounge where our young daughter sits enraptured by a cartoon. I am apart, settled into the deep cushions, my phone a cold, inert weight in my hands. The luxurious quiet of our home amplifies the solitude that has settled in my chest, my thoughts pulled inexorably toward the three-year absence of my husband, Admiral Taehyung, whose duty anchors him in a world far removed from this serene, lonely room.
