"Welcome to the family," Nina Winchester states as I grasp her refined, manicured hand. I respond with a polite smile, surveying the marble corridor. This job represents my final opportunity to begin anew. I can assume any identity I choose. However, I will soon discover that the secrets of the Winchesters are far more perilous than my own...
Each day, I meticulously clean the exquisite home of the Winchesters from top to bottom. I pick up their daughter from school. I prepare a delightful meal for the entire family before retreating to my small room on the top floor to dine alone.
I attempt to overlook how Nina deliberately creates a mess just to observe me tidy it up. How she fabricates bizarre stories about her own daughter. And how her husband Andrew appears increasingly shattered with each passing day. Yet, as I gaze into Andrew's striking brown eyes, filled with sorrow, it becomes difficult not to envision what it would be like to inhabit Nina's world. The expansive walk-in closet, the luxurious car, the ideal husband.
I only try on one of Nina's immaculate white dresses once. Merely to experience it. But she quickly discovers my secret... and by the time I realize that my attic bedroom door can only be locked from the outside, it is far too late.
Yet, I comfort myself: the Winchesters remain unaware of my true identity.
They are oblivious to my potential...
