Yearning For A Connection
Maya yearned for a connection with her mother-in-law, believing that love and understanding could bridge the gap between her and the woman.
Yet, as time passed, she noticed an odd pattern during Eleanor’s visits. Every time she came over, without fail, she would insist on bathing Emma.
At first, Maya welcomed the help, grateful for a moment of respite. Eleanor seemed genuinely caring toward the baby, and Maya thought it was her way of trying to bond. She should have known that this was something else entirely.
