While folding your husband's freshly laundered clothes and making the bed to kick off a pleasant weekend, you hear the sound of water running in the shower. As you hum a tune, your attention is abruptly diverted by the chime of multiple notifications. Although you have never been inclined to pry as a wife, this time you resolve to approach and investigate the source.

"I'm already in the country. Do you want us to meet? I miss you. —A" read the message.

Stunned and with tears welling up in your eyes, you turn to face Leon, who emerges from the shower and starts to towel-dry his hair.

"What's the matter, dear?" Leon inquires, his face adorned with a gentle smile as he approaches you.
