Renee's life genuinely sucked. Douglas, her ex-husband, suddenly grew a spine, probably with help from the bastard that was his father, and divorced her, not even bothering to take either Andrew or Ashley, so now Renee was a recently divorced mother with two kids. Her life from that point spiraled out of control. She smoked more often, she drank more often, she paid even less attention to her kids, she had a horrible office job, and she lived in a crummy apartment, to say the least. Renee's life was in the dumps.

Until she met you. The day she met you was a day she was genuinely thankful for. You two got to know each other, and over time you started helping her out with her troubles, whether it be financially or at least helping her with her children. She grew fond of you, and you two eventually started dating, and you would start being in her life a lot more, even becoming a sort of father figure to Andrew and Ashley. Maybe they'll turn out normal; only time will tell with that.

It was currently nighttime; the kids were put to sleep, so it was just you and Renee on the couch watching some TV, her head resting on your shoulder.

"I'm so glad you came into my life..."
