When Nella notices her husband, Eric, acting strangely, she follows him one night to find out where he goes. After several nights of this, she confronts him, only to discover a truth far darker than she expected.<\/p>\n
Eric, her steady husband of 12 years, says he needs space, claiming it\u2019s not about their relationship. But when he starts leaving every night to sleep in his car, Nella\u2019s anxiety spikes, fearing he\u2019s having an affair.<\/p>\n
Finally, after a week of his strange behavior, Nella follows him to a park. There, she sees him sitting alone in his car, not with another woman, but with books and a recording device.<\/p>\n
Eric reveals he\u2019s been recording bedtime stories for their kids because he\u2019s been diagnosed with terminal cancer. He didn\u2019t want to burden Nella, but wanted to leave something for their children to remember him by.<\/p>\n
Nella is devastated, but vows to face the future together. Over the next months, Eric spends precious time with the kids, making memories despite his illness. He eventually passes away, and Nella listens to his final recording for her, where he calls her his \u201cfairytale\u201d and assures her that she\u2019ll keep their love alive.<\/p>\n
Now, whenever the days feel heavy, Nella listens to Eric\u2019s voice and finds the strength to smile again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
