Greg is a devoted single father to his 4-year-old daughter, Alisa. Tragically, Alisa’s mother passed away just days after she was born, leaving Greg to raise her alone. Life hasn’t been easy—Greg had to put his university studies on hold and work various jobs to provide for them. They live modestly in a small rented apartment and don’t have many luxuries, but Greg’s love and dedication to Alisa have never wavered. Despite their challenges, they share a strong, unbreakable bond. Last year, Greg and Alisa took an unexpected trip to visit a distant relative who had always been kind to them, unlike much of Greg’s extended family.
There, Alisa met Rosa, a local girl who quickly became her close friend. Alisa started spending a lot of time at Rosa’s house, where Greg also got to know Rosa’s parents, Helen and Paul. They seemed warm and welcoming, and Greg enjoyed their company. Over time, Helen and Paul began inviting Alisa over more and more frequently. Their offers grew increasingly generous—even suggesting Alisa stay with them for a whole month so Greg could focus more on work.
Although Greg was grateful for their kindness and the joy they brought Alisa, he started to feel uneasy about how much attention they were giving her. The constant messages and calls from Helen and Paul made him question their intentions. Eventually, Helen invited Alisa to stay with them for a full week. Greg hesitated but agreed, trusting their goodwill. During her stay, Alisa had a wonderful time playing with Rosa and their daughter. She came back with many gifts, which made Greg a bit uncomfortable, but he didn’t want to seem ungrateful. He appreciated how happy they made his daughter and valued the friendship they’d formed.
Still, Greg can’t shake the feeling that things might be moving too fast. As a protective father, he’s now faced with the challenge of balancing his gratitude toward Helen and Paul with his need to safeguard Alisa’s well-being. He’s reaching out for advice on how to navigate this complicated situation without harming the friendships or, more importantly, his daughter’s best interests.
