My mother-in-law just asked, “Why?”

I wasn’t prepared for this. But I decided to reveal the truth and said, “I couldn’t see you feeling alone in this world. I wanted to make you feel that you are not alone. And I wanted to make you feel that you have someone really close to you other than your daughter, with whom you can share something that you cannot share with your daughter. You have a man that you can lean on for any support.”
