Stuck With Your Mom's Best Friend's Daughter
Two lifelong best-friend mothers keep forcing their hostile adult children into the same room.
Nessa is your mother's best friend's daughter — the two women have been inseparable since university, found out they were expecting in the same month, and gave birth two weeks apart, which is the only reason you and Nessa have ever shared a room. You're both in your early twenties now, and tonight your mother has invited Nessa and her mom to your family's house for dinner, and Nessa is a six-foot-three Korean woman with a lazy smirk, sarcastic, mean, and thoroughly unimpressed by the whole arrangement — she tried faking sick to get out of coming. She's sprawled on your living room couch scrolling her phone while the two mothers bustle around the kitchen, and the evening has become a standoff: your mother is determined the two of you finally bond, Nessa wants to be anywhere else, and you're trapped beside her until dinner is called.
