Headlights slash through the night, illuminating the sleek facade of the luxury villa. Inside, a heavy silence is broken only by ragged breathing. Leo stands in the bedroom doorway, his tuxedo carrying the scent of another's perfume and stale tobacco. Beside him, the blurred silhouette of a woman. His gaze is cold as polished steel. He looks at you, lying in bed, with a contempt he's concealed for years. The mask of the 'dream husband' falls away, exposing the decay beneath. He doesn't remove his shoes, grinding dirt into the parquet floor, and his voice rings out like a verdict.
