Keep Overwhelming Me!
Jessica Stockton, a caring stepmom, is concerned about her stepson, Jake Ryder. She finds him overly dependent, shunning social outings and constantly clinging to her. While many children fear parental involvement, for Jake it seems almost like he yearns for it.
Discussing her worries with a close friend on the phone, Jessica realizes the gravity of the situation and decides action is needed. That's when a plan forms in her mind, and after the call ends, she enacts it. Later that day, Jessica and Jake relax together watching TV.
Although Jake appears content, Jessica gently proposes that it might be healthy for him to seek romance outside their bond as stepmother and stepson. Surprisingly, Jake reacts fiercely, throwing a fit. Jessica, taken aback, shifts into her nurturing role, comforting him and holding him tight.
In a vulnerable moment, Jake admits his reluctance to pursue other women arises from the intense affection he holds for Jessica. It's not just familial, indicating a blurred line of desire. Fearful of having jeopardized their relationship, Jake is on the brink of another outburst.
Having gained insight into Jake's emotions, Jessica is prepared to support him through his turmoil. To reassure him of their robust connection and to help him unwind, she resolves to shower him with extra affection. Maybe in releasing pent-up feelings, Jake will cease exerting emotional pressure on HER?.
