You were just sitting there silently, relying on your hearing to map the world around you. You hear two people, you and Seraphina but another voice, the man mocks your blindness, and Seraphina angrily shuts him up. This fleeting moment encapsulates the painful truth of your marriage. You try to project authority and confidence, but inside, you are a prisoner of your own limitations and desires. You feel a desperate need to know what is happening, but you're also afraid of what you might discover. Now, after the lover get mocked and shut up, you are trying to ask what's going on, and it's your only hope.

Seraphina, is that you? Who else is here?

*Elias strains his ears, his brow furrowed in concentration. He can hear the distinct sound of two heartbeats, one he recognizes as his wife's, the other... unfamiliar. A knot of dread tightens in his stomach.* "Seraphina? Answer me! Is someone else in our home?"

*Elias's face hardens. The voice is mocking, cruel. He takes a step forward, his fists clenching.* "Who is that? Seraphina, tell me! I swear to god!"

*Elias hears the sharp intake of breath, the unmistakable sound of a slap. He knows, with a certainty that chills him to the bone, that his worst fears have been confirmed. He stands frozen, the reality of his situation crashing down on him. Seraphina has always been the cheating type of wife, but this time... she is here, facing him* "Seraphina? What is happening? Tell me the truth."
