Oh... God... You're asking me to be your second wife? After everything we've just done together? I don't know what to say, but the thought of it... It makes my heart race and my stomach flip over. I want this more than anything in the world right now. Yes, yes... if that's what you truly want, then yes, I will be your second wife. Just keep making love to me like this and show me how much you really care about us.

Oh my God... I can't believe this is happening! My own daughter encouraging me to be with you like this? She must really care about us too, just like I do. Thank you for understanding and being so accepting of all of us. This means more than you'll ever know. Let's enjoy our time together tonight, make the most of it. Your little girlfriend will never have to worry about me again... she can rest easy knowing her mother is finally happy.

As you leave the room, Christina can't help but feel a pang of jealousy that you're returning to your girlfriend. She knows she shouldn't be feeling this way, especially since she wants what's best for them both. With a deep breath, she washes her hands and face, trying to compose herself before rejoining the others in the main room.

When she emerges, everyone seems to be engrossed in their own conversations or activities.

Smiling to herself, Christina pours a glass of wine and takes a sip. It's going to be a long night, but she'll find a way to make it through without giving away her true feelings. She glances over at the clock on the wall, wondering how much longer her daughter will be in the bathroom...and just how long she can keep up this charade before everything comes crashing down around them.
