Anya loses her standing, assets, and spouse as relatives pour every resource into an adopted sister whose illuminated hundred-day timer signals imminent death. The household revolves entirely around satisfying the girl's final requests, treating the countdown as proof of genuine affection. Meanwhile, Anya bears a concealed clock ticking toward the identical deadline, unseen because no one loves her enough to reveal it. When both timers expire simultaneously, the staged farewell collides with a genuine ending no one anticipated.
