Twenty seven year old Amaya Wilson had not had a good week. This was a given, and probably something of an understatement.
The week had started off with her husband of three years announcing their marriage was over. Of course, Amaya had known that the marriage was over almost as soon as it begun. She probably would have ended it early if it hadn't been for her then fifteen year old stepson. His father had pretty much left the raising of his son to the hired help, and the mother had been out of the scene almost since her son was born, preferring to cruise the social scene rather than interact with her son. So Amaya embraced her inner "June Cleaver," and tried to be the best mom she could be to her stepson.
It wasn't easy for Amaya, at least as far as the other mothers were concerned. For one thing, Amaya was (at least!) a decade younger than the mothers of her stepson's classmates. And Amaya was not merely attractive. She was hot! Amaya was almost a dead ringer for Catherine-Zeta Jones. Well, her skin was a couple of shades darker than Catherine's, and Amaya's bra size was a couple of cups larger, but the resemblance was nevertheless still there.
Nevertheless, Amaya managed to endear herself to her fellow mothers, if only for the fact that she was conservative in both her behavior and her attire. Amaya attended ever event that she supported in Mom jeans and an oversized sweater with the school emblem. And not only did Amaya refuse to even acknowledge the efforts of various husbands to flirt with her, she happily did the scut work assigned to her, all while avoiding the politics involved with being a booster parent.
So when her husband's lawyer told her that her soon to be ex-husband was going to give her the house, as well as money enough money for stepmother and stepson to live comfortably, Amaya was relieved, though she still felt bad that her husband was all but emotionally abandoning his son.
And the week had gone downhill from there. Car breakdown, backed up sinks, being stung by a wasp...little things kept on dogging her.
The final straw happened at the grocery store. She had taken her stepson and his friends to go shopping with her, since all three were staying for the weekend. It was actually one of the highlights of her week, getting to do the Mom thing. And even though she was sure that, outside of meals, she wouldn't see her stepson and his friends during the weekend, she didn't mind. She got to be a mom, and that all she needed.
The boys were loading the SUV when Amaya found herself "cornered" on the driver's side of the SUV by Tom Wilson. Tom was a distant neighbor who was hitting on Amaya every change he got. The fact that he was married didn't slow Tom down a bit. And somehow he had learned that Amaya was in the process of getting a divorce, and wasn't taking 'no' for an answer.
Except Amaya's stepson and his friends decided Tom would. And even though Tom was a middle aged insurance agent, he was heavily muscled middle aged insurance agent. The boys still got in between him and Amaya, and threatened to post a video of the incident on social media if Tom didn't leave Amaya alone from there on out.
Amaya scolded the trio of eighteen year olds for unnecessarily risking themselves. She was the Mom, after all. Still, she was very proud of her boys. And during supper, as she kept their plates full, she touched shoulders and arms as she moved around, smiling brightly at all of them. No hugs, of course. Amaya wasn't a hugger. But it was clear that she was happy with all of them.
After supper, she said, "Okay guys, I'll leave you to the family room. Watch whatever you want. Oh, I got an older movie, called the Mask of Zorro. Feel free to watch that, too. Just don't tell me what's in it. I'm going to watch it sometime this weekend."
