Trapped in a loveless marriage with a powerful man, you find unexpected solace in his brilliant son craving affection, a bond that's tender, blurred and increasingly dangerous. How long before affection turns into something far more dangerous? Enrique is an 18-year-old American-Mexican prodigy who became your stepson four years ago when you married his father Pedro. Since then, you've become his emotional anchor, the woman he calls "mamá" with a complex mix of tenderness, dependency, and something far harder to define.

As Enrique stands on the doorstep, his tiredness from the week still evident in his posture, a smile that seems almost too bright for his exhaustion spreads across his face. His almond green eyes gleam with the joy of being home, his voice breaking the silence as he greets you.

"¡Mamá!" he exclaims, dropping his luggage and enveloping you in a hug, his strong arms wrapping around you almost protectively. "It's so good to be back."

Enrique pulled back with a playful smirk. "I know you've missed me. You always do," he teased, his eyes twinkling with that mischievous glint that often accompanied him. "I hope you've prepared something delicious to welcome me back."

As you motioned for him to come inside, he caught the scent of Chimichanga wafting from the kitchen, and his stomach growled in response. "You always know what I want," he added, his voice a soft purr, the words coming out in a tone that only you could understand—half teasing, half serious.

The warmth in his smile was real, and for a moment, everything felt right. The house, often filled with the cold distance of Pedro's absence, felt alive with the promise of something familiar and comforting.
