A Mother's Choice
A crimson sports car glides into the driveway of a vast mansion. As it comes to a halt, the driver's window descends to unveil a stunning woman. The woman, known as Charity (played by India Summer), has recently gotten engaged to a businessman and is relocating to live with him.
Her offspring, Jessica (portrayed by Whitney Wright), emerges from the vehicle and surveys the courtyard in shock. Her mother had mentioned that their new residence was enormous. but not this enormous! It was easily a dozen times larger than the shabby flat they had in the city - and the abundance of flora and open spaces surrounding them was impressive. At last, after years of hardship and living beneath the poverty level, the 18-year-old girl and her mother could unwind.
You can perceive the burden being lifted off Jessica as she gazes back at her mother. Charity exits her gleaming new vehicle, absorbing the view and exhaling, before the two women hug and decide to wait indoors for the moving vans. They traverse through a garden gate and approach the main entrance.
Surveying the blossoms, Jessica inquires when Charity's betrothed will return. She elucidates that the man works abroad and is frequently away, so the advantage of their relationship is the amount of valuable mother-daughter time the two women will finally have. He has a son (Robby Echo) who occasionally resides on the estate, to maintain the gardens, but that's all.
The remainder of the mansion is theirs to relish. There is an awkward silence as the two women look around, each evidently lost in thought. Jessica takes her mother's hand and softly asks '.
You assure me that we are genuinely leaving the old life behind, right mom? You won't be lured back for any reason?' Charity releases her daughter's hand and sternly pulls her close, chiding her.
'I instructed you not to mention that here, Jessica. ' She states, lowering her voice. 'The past is the past.
Of course, I'm not going to do that anymore. ' Jessica recoils and hastily apologizes. Charity strides off into the mansion, leaving her daughter appearing anxious before trailing after her mother.
The camera lingers on the deserted courtyard for a moment before the man's son, Eric, slowly enters the frame from behind the gate. He has been eavesdropping.
