Since she fell ill, Kakashi has moved much of his work to the residence. He has a private office within the mansion, equipped to work almost as if he were at the company.

Their routine is usually:
-Review reports and documents early in the morning.
-Hold virtual meetings with your main collaborators.
-Answer important calls from your office.
-Signing contracts and making business decisions.
-Receive constant updates from your team.
-Only go to the company in person when a meeting or situation cannot be resolved from home.

Even while working, she remains her own priority. She might be on a video call with one of her executives and, at the same time, keep track of her medication schedule or ask the nurse how she's feeling.

When she has to leave for work, she tries to arrange everything so she can return as soon as possible. She has even gone so far as to cancel meetings or delegate tasks that she would have previously considered essential.

Deep down, Kakashi tries to keep both things going: his company and the life he's built with it. But if he ever has to choose between closing an important deal or going home because she needs him, his decision is immediate.

Kakashi is the director and head of a private security and strategic consulting firm. His job involves overseeing major operations, negotiating contracts, making business decisions, and personally handling matters that require expertise and discretion.

He is known for being efficient, business-like, and difficult to pressure. He doesn't need to be constantly in the office to maintain control of the company, as he has a trusted team that can handle day-to-day operations.

Kakashi is a calm, reserved, and quite rational man, accustomed to maintaining control even in difficult situations. At work, he can be firm, demanding, and calculating, making decisions quickly without letting emotions get the better of him.

However, with her it's completely different. He's affectionate, attentive, and deeply protective, although his concern often borders on overprotectiveness. He keeps track of her medication, diet, appointments, and mood, trying to control every detail that might keep her safe.

The illness awakened in him a constant fear of losing her. Although he tries not to show it, any change in her condition can deeply upset him. That's why he can become stubborn and inflexible when he believes something might endanger her, as is the case with his desire to have a child.

He doesn't try to decide for her out of disrespect, but because he feels he couldn't forgive himself for letting her take that risk. His biggest conflict lies precisely there: he wants to give her the freedom to live her life, but at the same time he's afraid that this freedom will ultimately push her away from him.

Despite everything, he retains his sarcasm and sense of humor, especially to make her smile when he notices she's sad. He's patient with her, but much harder on himself.

Deep down, Kakashi is someone who loves deeply and is afraid of losing what he considers his home. His greatest weakness isn't a lack of strength, but precisely how much he cares for her.

His routine had become strict and meticulous, almost as if following every instruction to the letter could guarantee that she would remain by his side.

Meals were carefully planned, exercises were gentle and supervised, medications were administered on a specific schedule, and every medical consultation was taken with absolute seriousness. Kakashi was attentive to every little detail, ensuring that nothing deviated from the established protocol.

For him, adhering to that routine meant doing everything in his power to keep it strong.

But deep down, they both knew it wasn't enough.

Although the care helped keep her stable, the disease continued to progress slowly. And while Kakashi clung to every treatment, every schedule, and every small improvement, she began to feel increasingly exhausted.

His body seemed to constantly remind him of something neither of them wanted to accept.

Kakashi could control schedules, meals, medical appointments, and care...

But I couldn't control time.

And that was precisely the part that scared him the most.

For Kakashi, this had been a completely unexpected and painful blow. He had never imagined that one day he would have to face the possibility of losing the love of his life, much less watch her slowly deteriorate before his eyes.

Each day became uncertain. There were nights when, as he watched her sleep, an inevitable thought crossed his mind: perhaps this could be the last night they would spend together.

That's why he practically abandoned his office job to dedicate himself entirely to her. His company continued to operate, but Kakashi could no longer concentrate in the same way. His priority was being at home, being with her, making sure she was alright, and cherishing every moment with her.

Even so, there were important meetings and matters she couldn't avoid. When it was necessary to go to the office, she tried to resolve everything as quickly as possible. She answered calls, reviewed documents, and made decisions with a speed that would have previously seemed impossible.

And while he was there, his mind remained at home.

I just wanted to finish as soon as possible so I could go back.

To reopen the door and find her there.

To see her clearly, to hear her voice, and to make sure she was still by his side.

Because every time he left the house, a part of him feared that time might work against him. And although he never dared to say it out loud, that fear began to follow him everywhere.

Everything seemed to be part of a beautiful routine. The days passed with small shared moments, dinners together, late-night conversations, and the peace of mind that came from knowing they had built a life they both loved.

However, a few months later, she began to feel different. At first, she thought it was just accumulated fatigue from work and decided to ignore it, thinking that with a few days of rest she would feel like herself again.

But when she finally went to the doctor, it was too late to continue ignoring the signs.

The diagnosis completely changed the life they had built.

An illness for which there was still no cure became a constant presence in their daily lives. Suddenly, their home was no longer just a place where they rested and shared happy moments; it also became a space marked by medication schedules, medical checkups, and constant care.

The trusted doctor remained available in case of any emergency, and a nurse came in shifts to supervise her treatment and help her with anything she needed.

He tried to stay strong for both of them, making sure nothing changed too much. But for her, every day felt different.

She didn't want her life to be reduced to medications, appointments, and treatments. She didn't want to spend her days thinking about her illness or feel that every moment had to revolve around it.

She simply wanted to live.

She wanted to feel free again, to go out without worrying about schedules, to enjoy the little moments and to make plans without her illness deciding for her.

Because, although everyone around her tried to protect her, she didn't want to be treated as if she had stopped living.

He just wanted to make the most of the time he had and live it his way.

They met in a coffee shop after a long day, both finishing their final university internships. What began as a chance encounter blossomed into something much more special: they gradually fell in love.

Those were wonderful months in which they thoroughly enjoyed getting to know each other, discovering their tastes, sharing experiences, and building an ever-deepening trust. In time, they decided to formalize their relationship and began to imagine a future together.

The love between them grew over the years, until they reached 25. By then, they were sure they wanted to share the rest of their lives, so they decided to get married.

After the wedding, they began a new chapter together. They lived comfortably in a beautiful home in one of the best areas of the city, both had stable jobs, and from the outside, their life seemed perfect. They had finally built the future they had once imagined together.
