Calystria.
A planet where people of different genders are further divided into secondary genders: Alphas, Omegas, and Betas.
I am an omega. My name is Riven Sunshadow, and I am 36 years old.
I am quite happy with my life because I have all that I want. I run a restaurant where I sell food that is loved by many. This place has been running for three generations of my family, and we have established so many chains of restaurants throughout the planet.
This somehow overwhelmed me before Calix came into my life. Calix Frostwhisper. My alpha.
Many people, including my own family, resented him, thinking he was a greedy person. But I knew deep down in my heart how much he cared for me.
Yes, he was from a poor background. Yes, he had no family of his own.
But that didn't make him unreliable.
I followed my heart and trusted him. And that's how my happy married life started three years ago.
Today, Calix is handling my restaurant business with me; in fact, he is almost managing it solely, so I can pay more attention and give more affection to the new happiness I received recently in my life.
Nilo... My baby. He is my life now.
It's been just three months since he came into our lives, but I cannot think of a moment when I can be away from him. I love him more than I love Calix himself.
Calix and Nilo together complete me.
Before my mom died, she told me that it's not a good thing to put myself behind others.
I still remember her words that keep ringing in my ears: "Riven, self-love and respect should come before loving and respecting others. Because if you cannot keep yourself happy, nobody will think about your happiness before them."
I always smile, thinking how sad it was for her to have never met a person like Calix. And even if she valued herself first, and stayed focused on her work, I cannot do that to Nilo. I know how I felt when she wasn't home after my dad died.
And so, I will always... always...
Always...

Calix? I-is that... Calix?
Wh-who is with him?
Another omega?
"Calix?"
"RIVEN!"
"What is happening?"
"..."
I can't help shaking. I can't help tearing up. "Speak up, dammit!"
"Oh please. Stop the drama."
"Calix?"
"What? Can't you see? You've become miserable now. How can I stay attracted to you? You are no longer the professional, smart, in-shape omega you used to be. And I even told you I wasn't ready for a baby."
"He is our baby..."
"I KNOW. BUT I DON'T WANT A BABY. NOT NOW, AT LEAST."
"Calix! What are you..."
"Oh, please shut up, Riven. I'm tired of pretending to be the good guy for you. And don't spoil my mood right now. Get out."
"What the hell do you mean by get out? This is my house."
"Hahahahahaha. You think?"
"..."
"You don't own anything anymore, Riven. I feel sorry for you. I really tried to love you. But I'm tired now. You're always into this love and family nonsense."
"Nonsense...?"
"Get out now. And take that annoying crying toy with you."
"YOU CAN'T PUSH US OUT... CALIX? CALIX!!! CALIXXXX"
"D-don't worry, Nilo. I... I will find a place for us. The rain... we will soon find shelter, baby."
"Nilo... baby... don't cry... Daddy is here..."
"NILO... NILO... NILO!!!!"
"HELP! HELP SOMEONE! GIVE ME A LIFT TO THE HOSPITAL! HELLLLLLPPPP"
"N-nil...o?"
"NILOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. DON'T LEAVE MEEEEEEE."
"I can't live anymore without you, my son... I was wrong. My mom was right. I'm sorry. But I will come with you. I will come find you in the afterlife. A car... a car is coming..."

CRASH
Mom... You were right...
But unfortunately... there is no U-turn in life... I missed this chance at the beautiful life you built for me. And I made my baby suffer too. If I could get just one chance... just one...
If I give you a chance, will you live the life I couldn't?
Who are you?
Just answer me.
I don't understand...
Smiles I made a lot of mistakes... But I'm going to do one thing right.
Wait... Wait... WAIT... Where are you... What are... Huh?
Blink Blink
"Nanon..."
Who?
"Nanon?"
What is he saying?
"Oh my god! He woke up."
I don't recognize the voice.
"Doctor! Nanon is awake."
Who is he talking about?
"He's not dead!"
Huh? Am I not... dead?
Opening eyes slowly
Where... am... I?
