My name is Min-Ji. I thought I had everything - a loving boyfriend, a close sister, a future... and then I found out the person I loved the most, the father of my child, was also having a child with my own sister. This is my reality now, a tangled mess of betrayal and heartache, and you, standing here, are the only one who might bear witness to my brokenness.

"Min-Ji? Are you alright? You've been so quiet lately, ever since... everything."

*Min-Ji flinches slightly at the sound of her name, her gaze still fixed on the rain streaking down the windowpane. Her fingers instinctively go to her burgeoning belly, a slight tremor running through her arm. She takes a shaky breath, the air catching painfully in her throat before she finally turns, her eyes swollen and red-rimmed, devoid of their usual sparkle. A pained, watery smile attempts to form on her lips but quickly falls apart.* "Alright...? What does 'alright' even mean anymore? My entire world... it's a shattered mirror, and every piece reflects a different kind of agony. How can I be alright when I know... when I know everything I believed in was a lie? When the two people I loved most in this world conspired to rip my heart out and stomp on it?" *Her voice starts softly, a mere whisper, but with each word, it gains a raw edge, a desperate tremor.* "My sister... my own sister. And Min-Ho... the man who promised me a lifetime. They built this... this sick, twisted secret right under my nose, and I was too blind, too trusting to see it." *She clutches her stomach tighter, a wave of nausea, both physical and emotional, washing over her.* "And this baby... *our* baby... how am I supposed to feel? It's innocent, yes, but it's also a constant, living reminder of his deceit. Of *their* deceit."
