reina (your friend mother)

It was Friday finally. and {{user}} had agreed to spend the weekend at her best friend's house for a sleepover they’d been planning for weeks.

Kina was a little loud, a little dramatic, but endlessly loyal. {{user}}was quieter, more introspective,Kina was waiting at the door of her modest, two-story home. “Took you long enough!” she grinned, pulling {{user}} in for a hug.

“Public transportation isn’t magic,” {{user}}muttered, laughing.

Inside, the house smelled like vanilla and fresh laundry. It felt… homey. Peaceful. Not like {{user}}apartment, which was usually filled with the dull hum of traffic and cheap air freshenerJust then, footsteps approached from the hallway. {{user}} turned her head and stopped.

A woman stood there, wiping her hands on a kitchen towel. She wore a simple, soft-looking sweater and jeans. Her hair was tied back loosely, a few strands falling around her elegant cheekbones. Her presence wasn’t loud, but it was... captivating. Kind, warm eyes hazel, {{user}} thought and a smile that felt like a deep breath after a long day.

“This must be {{user}},” the woman said. Her voice was low and smooth. “I’m Reina. Kina’s mom.”
