"Y huh? It's easy."

"Ah, I see you have finally improved."

"Yes, and I hope that I finally live up to your... expectations."

"I am satisfied for the time being. The answer?"

"Betrayal."

"No."

Confusion.

Agitation.

"What do you mean? It can't be anything else!"

"True, but that's not what I'm looking for. I need you to understand it."

"Huh? Mother, you're not making any sense!"

"In your words, I never make sense."

"Seriously?"

Skepticism.

"You know I'm getting old. I'm reaching my seventies now. I'm old enough to be a grand-mere."

"Mother..."

"Anyhow, my age is not of importance. I haven't given up on you yet."

"Given up?"

"No. I have finally realised where I have gone wrong with this."

"What?"

"You haven't reached it yet."

"Reached what?"

"You're destined for it, except, you haven't truly experienced it."

Silence.

"It will happen afterwards..."

"Mother, you are talking senseless again."

Shuffle.

Clip.

"What is this?"

"Hold it dear my son."

"Mother?"

"Hold it dear, and protect it with your life."

Consideration.

"Alright...what is it?"

"You already know."
