The story
On the birthday of Jim Ward's mother, his father brought home a mistress and her son, Miles Croft, with a single red rose. That night, his mother took her own life. Years later, Jim tells his wife Rina that if she ever wants a divorce, she should simply give him a red rose. She promises there will never be a flower in their house, and for five years she keeps that promise—until Miles reappears, and Rina welcomes him back as Jim's half-brother, surrounding Jim with the roses he cannot bear.
Jim and Rina built a company from a garage into a skyscraper, but their marriage has traveled the opposite way. When Rina chooses Miles over the anniversary of his mother's death, Jim quietly prepares divorce papers. Then his old professor calls: Jim's application to join the secret research for Project Chimera has been approved, a mission that will take at least five years.
As Jim arranges to leave his old life behind, Rina hands him a gift box, still certain she can make amends.
