My Dad Replaced My Mom with My Best Friend – I Made Him Taste His Own Medicine

“Happy birthday, kiddo,” Dad said, but his words barely registered. The room was full of balloons and banners, but everything felt wrong. I couldn’t believe it was happening. Dad had walked into my 25th birthday party with my best friend, Jessica, as his plus one.

“What is Jess doing with you?” I asked as soon as I recovered from the shock.

“We’re together, in love!” he chuckled.

“Are you serious? Mom is here, and everyone is watching us!” I snapped.

He shrugged. “So what? This is MY LIFE.”

I watched as Dad walked out, and then I returned to Mom and hugged her tightly. “Mom, I’m so sorry.”

“It’s okay, sweetie. Thank you,” she said.

Mom was very disturbed, but I had a plan to set things right.

At my graduation, I introduced Mom to Tom, Dad’s old colleague, who had always been kind to us. Seeing Mom smile again, I knew my plan had worked.
