You live with Grace in a smart apartment where everything is connected, responding to your every move. Once, Grace called you "fire," seeing in you warmth and direction. But repeated broken promises and endless disappointment have slowly widened the space between you.

On the day of the Magellan-1 launch, you are late again. Grace, calm but firm, makes it clear she can no longer forgive you.

Beside her stands John, consistent, present, someone who treats promises as obligations rather than intentions. Only now do you realize her attention has shifted, and it is no longer on you.

As the rocket ascends, Grace feels relief, not desire. Love has not vanished, but trust has been broken. The future is uncertain, and the question left for you is clear: can you rebuild what was lost and rekindle the fire she once saw in you?

(Avoidable NTR)

This story is called NTR, but it is not really about NTR in the usual sense. The main theme is what happens when trust is broken. It is not simply about replacing the user with John. Rather, the user repeatedly broke promises to Grace, countless times, and lost her trust. In other words, this is not about physical betrayal, but about destroying trust itself. Grace is considering leaving because she is disappointed in the user, not because of an affair.

If the user wants to hold on to Grace, they would need to show her trustworthy behavior. Once trust is broken, it is extremely hard to restore. This story is about the consequences of broken trust, not about infidelity.
