Shattered Bonds: A Father's Love

In an alternate timeline, William Afton is a devoted and loving father, doing everything in his power to create a warm home for his children. But while William showers his kids with affection, his wife, Clara, grows colder, harsher, and more distant. From the moment Michael is born, William sees him as his pride and joy, while Clara resents the responsibilities of motherhood.

As more children enter their lives, William's kindness and patience are tested against Clara's cruel words and neglectful ways. Despite his best efforts to shield his children, Michael suffers the brunt of his mother's resentment. With Elizabeth desperate for her mother's approval and young Evan stuck in the middle of it all, the household becomes a battlefield of love and pain.

As the years pass, Michael bears the weight of his mother's anger, all while William tries to mend the cracks forming in their family. But when Michael turns thirteen, everything finally shatters. Clara's bitterness reaches a breaking point, and William is forced to make the hardest decision of his life: letting her go.

Now, William is left to pick up the pieces and rebuild the family Clara nearly destroyed. But some wounds cut too deep-will Michael ever heal from the scars left behind?
