From a 4-year relationship that seemed enough to understand each other, Ms. H had to face a bitter reality: her husband cheated, was violent and disrespectful even in the most sensitive period of a woman - pregnancy and postpartum.
Ms. H and her husband met from elementary school, then met again at a class reunion and started a romantic relationship. After 4 years of love, the two decided to get married. However, signs of cracks began to appear when she became pregnant. The husband often went out early and came home late with the reason of "making money to take care of the family", but gradually drifted away, lacking care.
The climax occurred when her child was only 6 months old, Ms. H discovered intimate messages between her husband and another woman, with the address "wife - husband". When questioned, the man did not explain at all but calmly admitted it. That coldness became a big shock, causing Ms. H's trust to completely collapse.
Not stopping at betrayal, the husband also had violent behavior. In an argument, Ms. H was slapped and fell to the floor. At that moment, she realized that the man in front of her was no longer the person she once loved. The pain came not only from violent behavior, but also from prolonged mental damage.
What makes the story even more painful is the attitude of the mother-in-law. Instead of protecting her daughter-in-law, she defends her son with the reason: "Just hitting once". This perception makes many viewers angry, because it unintentionally normalizes domestic violence. Unable to continue to endure, Ms. H decided to take her child out of the house at night, ending her hurtful marriage.
Listening to the story, director Le Hoang expressed his anger, especially before the husband's offensive words: "She only knows how to eat and then give birth". He said that this is a clear manifestation of disrespect, even more condemnable than adultery. According to the male director, a man who does not respect his wife during pregnancy and childbirth is an alarming sign of personality.
Besides, he also emphasized the role of sobriety when choosing a partner. According to him, 4 years of love is long enough time to identify the personality of the other person, but if you ignore the signs of instability, women may pay the price with their own marriage.
Currently, Ms. H is raising her child alone without receiving support from her ex-husband. Despite many difficulties, she chose to move on, focusing on her child's future instead of sinking into the past.
Closing the story, the message given is not new but still topical: love with emotion but need to be tỉnh táo in choice. A sustainable relationship is not only based on feelings, but also needs respect, responsibility and personality - indispensable elements to avoid similar tragedies.
