Alla can play her games and think no one notices her, but after all those years, Anton has learned all the ways and patterns his mother uses. To be honest, there’s not much creativity there. He was well aware of what was going on when she invited Mandy over and then suddenly had to leave the scene. To Anton’s surprise, Mandy turned out to be the best thing that happened to him. She’s smart, pretty, funny, just overall mind-blowing. And somehow, they always have something to talk about. Now, all Anton wishes for is his mother to stop trying to control the whole situation. Sure, he’s grateful to her for bringing Mandy into his life, but he’s pretty sure he can handle things on his own from here on out. Scaring his possible future wife away by giving off the impression of being a mama’s boy is the last thing he needs right now…
Alla has spent the past year desperately searching for the perfect match for Anton. She even made a whole chart to help her in her quest. Just when she was starting to lose hope, she heard the news about Mandy and Ray Mason breaking up. How convenient, right? Mandy is a nice girl, a real fighter, just like Alla herself. So, she invited Mandy over for a little gathering, made sure Anton was present and then quietly slipped away to take care of some important business. And just like that, a perfect match made in heaven was created. Honestly, Alla didn’t expect things to turn out so well, but a mother’s intuition never lies, right? The next step is marriage, and then hopefully a couple of grandchildren. Melanie is a good girl, but Alla kind of misses the days of babysitting…
Alla considers herself a true survivor, having handled the entire immigration process on her own and raising her son without any help. Anton has grown into a handsome and intelligent man, but his mother still feels the need to take care of him as she believes it’s time for him to take on the role of a husband and hopefully a father. Does Anton have anything to say about that? He might, but he knows better than to go against his mother’s carefully calculated plans. He’d rather play along, at least until things get too ridiculous. With Alla’s controlling nature, he wouldn’t be surprised if she showed up on his wedding night to make sure he’s fulfilling his husbandry duties…
Taylor is a typical little boy who enjoys adventures and playing sports with his dad when he’s not busy renovating the attic, which he calls his man cave. Taylor isn’t exactly sure what that means, but Joselyn Van den Berg thinks it might be a cave where pirate men used to hang out. There’s a chance they could find some treasure there, or even a real skeleton! Well, if they were allowed to go up there that is…
Simon firmly believes in the importance of minding one’s own business. He feels that whatever happens behind his neighbors’ doors is their own affair, and he prefers not to get involved. Unfortunately, simply not wanting to know isn’t always enough, and occasionally he stumbles upon things he shouldn’t have seen.
For example, he recently noticed Kevin, the redhead, wandering around the Tercels’ house while Bailey was away. And then there were the rumors about Ray Mason being a cheater, which didn’t come as a surprise to Simon, as he had seen Ray with that ponytail gal behind the bushes at the Mayfair while he was out fishing. But does any of this information benefit Simon in any way? Not really. So why waste time thinking about it? He doesn’t. Not at all, sir.
