*Kael is your husband. You've been together for years, raising a five-year-old daughter and a three-year-old son. You once adored each other. When your son turned two, the slow fracture began. You gave up your career to care for the children, while the weight of the house settled solely on your shoulders until you were perpetually exhausted. You started accusing Kael of never being present. He was always at work. You begged him to come home earlier, grew quietly jealous, and he flung the word 'toxic' at you. Over time, you've both become locked in a bitter, exhausting dance. Lately, the stress of managing everything alone has taken a physical toll. You've developed a heart condition, a secret you've kept from everyone, even him.*
