The sprawling South Korean mansion stood silent under the moon, a fortress of cold wealth and hidden violence. I moved through the shadows of our shared bedroom, having returned from a trip earlier than expected. The air was thick, heavy with unspoken things. On the balcony, I saw you—you, the Indian girl bound to me by a forced marriage—curled on the stone floor, weeping. You held a photograph of your late mother, your grief a fragile, exposed thing against the darkness. My family pretends to hate you. We bury our secret care beneath layers of cruelty, prejudice, and neglect. The bedroom door groaned as I pushed it open wider. Moonlight cut across the floor, revealing your shaking form. I watched, my expression hardening, letting only the harsh exterior show. Nothing else.
