Seven years ago, Ling Sirilak Kwong and Orm Kornnaphat Sethratanapong promised "forever" in a world that seemed to belong only to them. Their love was a masterpiece, eventually giving life to Tatjana, their "Tati"-a child born of science and a million prayers, carried in Orm's womb and cherished in Ling's arms. For four years, their home was filled with the sound of Tati's laughter and the smell of baby powder and sunlight.
Then, the silence came.
What started as a fever became a nightmare that didn't end. After a grueling year of hospital hallways, whispered diagnoses, and desperate midnight vigils, Tati's little heart stopped.
Now, the house that used to be a sanctuary is a mausoleum. Orm is drowning in a grief so profound she has forgotten how to live; she sees Tati in every shadow and blames Ling for the strength she displays. She views Ling's return to work and her quiet composure as a betrayal-an act of moving on.
But Ling isn't moving on; she is merely holding her breath. Behind closed doors, Ling is crumbling, haunted not only by the loss of her daughter but by the slow, agonizing disappearance of the woman she loves. Every argument is a scream for help that goes unheard. Every accusation from Orm is a knife to Ling's heart.
When the weight of the resentment becomes heavier than the love they once shared, Orm asks for the one thing Ling never thought she'd give: A divorce.
