Yara escapes to the back deck after putting her girls to bed for solitude amid the winter nighttime sounds.
She finds solace in the ambient noise of the trees, preferring it over any human disturbance.
Her husband, Fadi, returns home and approaches her, attempting a casual greeting and kissing her cheek.
Despite his efforts to engage in light conversation about her day and dinner, Yara remains distant.
She comments on the full moon, attempting to draw Fadi's attention to its beauty.
Fadi, however, is more focused on his hunger and looking forward to watching a new episode of "Chicago P.D."
Their conversation highlights the routine nature of their lives, centering on work and watching television.
Yara reveals to Fadi that her teaching contract was not renewed and her design work will be outsourced.
Fadi minimizes the significance of her job loss, suggesting domestic responsibilities could now keep her busy.
Yara questions if Fadi values her primarily for the household work she does and the care she provides to their children.
Fadi grows frustrated with Yara's perceived negativity, accusing her of twisting his words.
He leaves her on the deck, dismissing her concerns as "bullshit" due to his lack of time for such a discussion.
After Fadi's departure, Yara reflects on her ability to remain emotionally detached from others to avoid pain, yet acknowledges Fadi's closeness has allowed him to see—but not understand—her pain.
