The Sea God's Disguise: Fishing for Love

An old man once saved a god's life, and now, with his own time running out, he asks that god for three more years. The Sea God agrees, but on one condition: he will enter the family in disguise, living as an ordinary fisherman. For three years he serves quietly, enduring the scorn of a wife who sees only a humble servant. She is too busy chasing an old flame to notice the truth behind his stillness. When the three years end, the god's patience is gone. He tears up the contract and leaves, forcing her to confront what she has lost. The story follows his hidden power, his silent sacrifice, and the moment the disguise finally falls away.
