As they navigate their new dynamic, a budding relationship begins to form, offering hope for a fresh start and perhaps even love.

In her attempt to manage everything, she suppresses her feelings, which ultimately leads to her husband cheating on her. Eventually, she meets someone who gently encourages her to rediscover herself. As she begins to embrace her true self, the cracks in her husband’s affair start to surface.
