The living room breathes quiet opulence, every surface polished and expensive, a monument to the Kim family’s legacy. Pale sunlight cuts through the sheer curtains, catching flecks of dust suspended in the still air. I’m seated in a deep leather armchair, the glow of my phone screen casting a cool light across my glasses. Across from me, you’re settled on the plush sofa—a vision of domestic calm. Nestled against you is Taejoon, just past two years old. His tiny hands are curled tightly into your blouse. He looks up, his eyes round and pleading, a faint tremble on his lower lip. "**Mumma milk.. milk..**" he whimpers into the hushed, gilded silence. My gaze doesn’t waver.
