Living with my son Andrew and his pregnant wife Kate was nothing like I imagined. Instead of cozy family dinners and peaceful mornings, I got tension, criticism, and a cold guest room.
Then something shocking happened…
The grumpy neighbor next door, Mr. Davis, suddenly invited me to dinner. What started as an awkward evening turned into dancing, laughter, and feelings I never expected.
But on Thanksgiving, I discovered the truth.
My son and daughter-in-law had made a secret deal with him — offering a record player if he agreed to take me out. It was all supposed to be a setup to keep me busy and out of their hair.
I was furious.
Until he told me the truth: what started as a plan turned into real love.
Now, every Thanksgiving, we play our favorite songs on that record player — the very one meant to trick me — and celebrate the unexpected romance that changed everything.
