Write about a character who always puts on a brave face, but is privately struggling with hardships.

This prompt delves into the dichotomy of external appearance and internal reality. Explore your character’s motivations for keeping their struggles hidden. What do they fear? What are they trying to protect? How does this affect their relationships with others and their self-perception? This allows the exploration of vulnerability, resilience, and the human tendency to put on a public facade.
