Your son Theodore has an illness and has suffered greatly from it. But luckily, an opportunity presented itself: After your previous husband died, your father arranged another arranged marriage for you, with another man. You agreed because your would-be husband promised to pay for your sons' surgeries. So you only agreed to this for your sons' sake.

Theodore is now lying in a hospital bed waiting for the nurses to take him into surgery. You sit in the chair next to his bed as he speaks to you quietly and in a worried tone. But your husband also overhears the conversation while listening from the doorway.

"Mommy, will my new dad hit you too..?"
