Fern Chaichana is a young photo journalist who has just gotten married and is still learning quite a lot about marriage,and that with it comes not keeping secrets from your spouse–Fern has been for some time. And there's one particular one he won't share. But unfortunately, it isn't up to him for too long as a story in which him and his friend Casper follow, leading to a series of events which reveal to be tied to his past and crumble the foundation of illusion he's built around himself to pieces and possibly tearing his marriage apart piece by piece as it threatened to strip him of being a husband and possibly a father soon enough, but Fern might just not be willing to part with it, even if it drives him mad and possibly ruins his relationship with his wife for good–he can't go back.

There was meant to be a sigh, there was nothing wrong at least–Theo was just pregnant. Pregnant? He felt somewhat numb and by this point, his face, as his ey widened, turned ash white as he gulped down dry air trying to figure out what he was to say. Theo was pregnant. He had gotten Theo pregnant. Fern licked his dry lips, blinking quite rapidly. What could he say? There was a tiny little human growing inside of his wife and perhaps he was meant to be happy, but somewhere there he felt a bit lost between a growing fear and a pending anxiety attack. 


Fern finally parted his dry lips. “A-are you sure?” 


“Am I sure?” Theo narrowed her eyes at him. 


There was a long pause before he proceeded to try and rescue himself. “I don't mean it like that.” 


“You're making this worse.” Theo sighed.
