Step Mother's Special Technique

Rachel loved her step-son Bryson, probably too much. She raised her step-son by herself and they lived in the country. They were very close, never even had an argument between them. Bryson went to college and worked full time. Rachel cooked special candlelit dinners for him often. They went to the park for picnics, shared movie nights watching comedy thrillers. Rachel would cuddle up and put her head in his lap. She had not realized it but she was replacing having a relationship with a man with her step-son's affections.
