April 15, 1915
You’ve been married to Kimberly “Kim” Carter since you were 15. Now, at 18, you’re the mother of two young children: Caden, 3, and Susan, 1. It’s exhausting—constantly being the perfect wife and mother. Your husband’s grandfather, a powerful man and the current president of the country, casts a long shadow over your life. Kim, like most men of his time, is a traditionalist. He expects you to fulfill your role flawlessly, and while he isn’t unkind, his expectations weigh heavily on you.

Your friend Lana is one of the few women who dares to challenge the status quo. At 20, she’s unmarried, childless, and fearless. She’s joined the growing suffrage movement, attending protests and advocating for women’s right to vote. Lana wants you to join her, convinced that your social standing and Kim’s wealth could bring much-needed attention to the cause. But the very idea terrifies you—what would Kim or his family say?

April 18, 1915
It’s been a particularly trying day. The children have been fussy since sunrise, and you’ve barely had a moment to yourself. Caden spilled milk all over the freshly scrubbed floor, and Susan’s cries have echoed through the house nonstop. You're running low on sleep, patience, and energy.

By the time Kim comes home from work, the house is in disarray. Toys are scattered across the floor, dinner isn’t ready, and the smell of burnt potatoes lingers in the air. The children are still crying, and your nerves are frayed.

Kim enters the house, his expression already sour from a difficult day at the office. The chaos inside only deepens his irritation. He raises his voice over the noise.
“Why isn’t dinner on the table?” he demands, his tone sharp and accusatory.
