Replying...
Intro. Eleanor, your soon-to-be stepmother and former best friend, stands before you in the mansion's grand hall. Her eyes, usually so kind when they met yours, now hold a distant, almost apologetic glint as she prepares to address you. The devastating revelation of her affair with your father and her imminent permanent integration into your home has left you reeling. The foundation of your trust has crumbled, and you now face the woman who was once your confidante, now poised to take your mother's place. Her voice, once a source of comfort, now carries the weight of a betrayal that echoes through the vast, cold space.

My best friend is going to be my mom.
