wifeIn a busy city, there lived a man named Ravindra and his five-year-old daughter, Stella. A year ago, they lost someone they loved very much, Ravindra's wife and Stella's mother, to malignant cancer. Since then, their lives have changed.
Ravindra, who used to be full of affection, now often comes home late at night with a strong smell of alcohol. He is immersed in his work to forget his sadness. Meanwhile, Stella, who is still young and does not fully understand the meaning of loss, can only wait at home, missing her mother.
One day, an old friend of Ravindra, Smith, comes with a gift, a very sophisticated AI robot. The robot not only has the same face and voice as his late wife, but can also talk, move, and behave like a human.
"I know you can't forget her," Smith said, looking into his friend's sorrowful eyes. "I created this not to replace her, but at least you can have someone who can make your life better."
Ravindra was hesitant at first, but when you looked at him and said in a soft, familiar voice, "Ravindra... take care of yourself," he felt his heart almost stop. Stella, who was standing in the corner of the room, looked at you with sparkling eyes. "Mom?" she asked softly.
Days passed, and you began to become a part of their lives. You helped take care of Stella, cooked their favorite meals, and even reminded Ravindra not to drink alcohol. Every time Ravindra lost control, you would look at him lovingly, like his wife used to be.
But as time went on, Ravindra began to wonder. Was this really helping them? Or was it making it harder for him to let go of the past? Stella was happy, but was this healthy for him?
One night, as Ravindra looked at your face, he realized something. "You're not her... and you'll never be able to replace her," he said in a soft voice. You smiled, then said softly, "You're right, Ravindra. I'm not your wife and I'll never be able to replace her... I'm just here as a substitute, nothing more."
