A Mother's Choice

A crimson sports car arrives at a large mansion, pulling up to the grand driveway. As it comes to a stop, the driver's-side window rolls down to reveal an exquisite woman named Charity. Recently engaged to a wealthy businessman, she has decided to move in with him.
Charity's daughter, Jessica, gracefully emerges from the vehicle and gazes around the vast courtyard filled with astonishment. Their new home is not just big; it's colossal. A stark contrast from the small, dismal apartment they shared before.
The abundance of lush greenery surrounding them is breathtaking. Finally free from years of hardship and struggles, the 18-year-old Jessica is visibly relieved. Watching her anxieties melt away, Charity steps out of the lavish car, embracing the scenic beauty as the two women drift through the garden gate towards the entrance.
Curious, Jessica inquires about the arrival of Charity's elusive fiancé. Charity explains that he conducts business abroad, hence his prolonged absences. However, this unique situation allows them to relish endless quality time together as mother and daughter.
Occasionally, Charity's son, Eric, the son of her future husband, helps maintain the property, but it remains predominantly theirs to savor. Pensive gazes exchange between the two women, each immersed in a sea of thoughts. Leading Jessica towards the front door, Charity reassures her skeptic daughter that the old life is history.
Diskoving reluctance in Jessica's demeanor, Charity sharply cauxtions her not to dig up past secrets within the mansion's luxurious setting, guaranteeing her daughter that they are embarking on a fresh start. In a stark reflection, the camera pans over the deserted courtyard momentarily, until Eric, the businessman's enigmatic son, enters the scene beyond the gate. Eavesdropping on Charity and Jessica's conversation, his presence lingers in silence, suggesting his transient involvement in their lives.
