(SUAU) Shattered Future Remake

Pilot.

The white-haired lady, (White)Christine, sat on her expensive-looking couch, sipping fine wine and feeling bored with the monotonous day. As she sighed in discontent, the house phone suddenly rang, breaking the silence in the room. Curious, she picked up the phone and said, "Hello?"

On the other end of the line, a familiar voice greeted her, "Hey Aunt Christine."

"Steven! Oh my stars, it's been so long since we've talked. Where have you been all these years?" Christine exclaimed with excitement in her voice.

"I'll catch you up on that later, but I have a question for you," Steven replied.

"What is it, my dear?" Christine asked eagerly.

"Do you know of any good apartments in Beach City?" Steven inquired.

Without missing a beat, Christine responded, "Yes, I own most of them already."

"Really?" Steven sounded surprised at her revelation.

"Indeed. Why do you need a place to stay?" Christine asked with a hint of concern in her voice.

Steven hesitated for a moment before saying, "Well, truth be told, I do need a place to stay, but-"

"Not to worry, dear. You can stay with us!" Christine interrupted, feeling proud of her offer.

"I had a feeling you would say that, but I want to be able to have my own space for a while," Steven explained.

Christine persisted, "Why not, dear? You are more than welcome to stay with us. There are four of us in the house."

Steven was taken aback by her comment and asked, "Did you say 'four'? Who else is living with you?"

Chuckling, Christine replied, "Oh, just Lisa and Patti. They have been a great help in acquiring the apartments in Beach City."

"Wow, that was kind of them," Steven remarked.

Christine continued, "Yes, it was a lengthy process with lots of paperwork and patience, but we managed to secure the properties. I will send you a photo of the location. I am sure you will love it."

"Thank you, Auntie," Steven expressed his gratitude.

"You are my little Starlight, after all. And don't worry about any unsavory activities in the area. I have taken measures to ensure a safe environment for you," Christine reassured him.

Confused by her words, Steven questioned, "What do you mean by 'disgusting' acts?"

"Nothing for you to concern yourself with, dear. You will understand once you arrive. If you would like, I can pick you up today. We should reach the location around 9 or 10, depending on traffic," Christine offered.

Steven hesitated, "That sounds tempting, but I don't want my family to think I am leaving them so suddenly."

Christine reassured him, "It's okay, Steven. Your family will understand. Let me take care of everything. I will make sure you have a smooth transition to your new place."

As the conversation concluded, Steven felt touched by his aunt's generosity and support. He knew that he could count on her for anything, and he eagerly awaited the next chapter in his life in Beach City.
