"But Harmony,
there's something you need to know."

It's Mother,
she strides into my room
with a tray of milk and biscuits.

I look at her warily.

"We have to go visit Aunty Aoi
on Saturday..."

My eyes widen,

"Tomorrow? We have to?"

"Yes, have to."

Mother huffs and looks exhausted.
Yet her grey eyes still shine as she
sets the tray on my desk and
pulls in into her arm to
stroke my hair softly.

"It'll be okay, my sweetheart.
I'll be by your side forever, okay?"

I'm lost for words

She's on. . . my side?

She'll stay forever?
