Todd, a selfish man, filed for divorce when his wife, Linda, got pregnant for the fifth time. He resented having children, especially daughters, and refused to take responsibility. Ignoring Linda’s pleas, he became increasingly distant, even barring her from their bed.
Left to care for their four daughters alone, Linda struggled while Todd indulged in his selfish pursuits. Eventually, Linda found solace in their neighbor, Steve, who stepped in to help care for the children and offered her the support Todd never did.
As Todd’s behavior worsened, Linda’s health suffered. When she collapsed from stress, Steve was there to help, further deepening their bond. Todd, blinded by his own selfishness, filed for divorce, leaving Linda and the children to rebuild their lives without him.
Meanwhile, Steve’s kindness and support led to a blossoming romance between him and Linda. They married, leaving Todd to realize the depth of his selfishness. Consumed by regret, Todd’s loneliness and guilt drove him to take his own life.
In the end, Todd’s selfishness cost him everything, while Linda and her children found happiness and love in the caring embrace of Steve.
