The narrative follows a mother who lost her sixteen-year-old son in a tragic accident, a loss that shattered her world and reshaped every part of her life.

In the immediate aftermath, she mourned loudly and visibly, unable to contain the depth of her sorrow. Her husband, Sam, however, remained silent and dry-eyed. At the hospital where their son took his last breath, at the funeral where loved ones gathered to say goodbye, and in their home where memories lived in every corner, Sam never shed a single tear.

His emotional stillness became a painful mystery she could not penetrate. As she grieved openly, she watched him retreat into himself, and his silence felt like abandonment. She yearned for shared mourning, for the comfort of knowing he felt what she felt. Instead, she confronted only distance, and with that distance came heartbreak.
