Torn apart by the fractured echoes of a broken marriage, a mother stands firm in the storm of her children's anger and tears.
Her unwavering grip on the precious moments she is allotted with her son and daughter becomes the unseen battleground where love, pain, and resentment clash with every tick of the clock.
