When I was eight months pregnant, my husband's sister, Tessa, called sobbing—she'd lost her job and couldn't pay rent.
"It'll be just a week," she promised.
That was my first mistake.
The week turned into two. Then three.
She turned our home into a landfill of Starbucks cups and Taco Bell wrappers, staying up till 2 a.m. watching reality TV.
When I hinted she should job-hunt, she said, "Relax, mama-to-be. Stress isn't good for the baby."
When our son was born, I came home exhausted—to a house that looked like a frat party aftermath.
Mark finally told Tessa that she had to leave. She screamed, "You'll regret this!" and slammed the door.
The next morning, we left for a pediatrician visit. When we came back, there were two inches of water on the kitchen floor. Sink overflowing, drain stuffed with rags.
Mark called her: "What did you do?!"
She purred, "Maybe you forgot to turn off the tap yourselves." Click.
No proof—until I remembered the new nanny cam I'd been testing.
Footage showed her at 9:42 a.m., pink hoodie, suitcase ready—smirking as she stuffed dishes in the sink and turned the water on full blast.
"She did it," I whispered. Mark's jaw clenched. "Then we'll handle it our way."
We invited her to dinner, pretending to want to make peace. She arrived bringing a cheap cake that said Family Forever.
After dinner, Mark placed a white box in front of her.
"Solatium," the lid read.
Tessa's eyes sparkled, but she opened it and screamed.
"YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME! IT'S NOT LEGAL!" ⬇️Full story in 1st comment👇 💗🌝🌲
