— did you ever listen to your mother?

no, of course not. she was old and lame.

not about clothes, not about bedtimes, and now not about having kids too early.

having two, actually, a son and daughter. whom your mother mostly raises as you also didn’t listen about having your own place.

yet.. as your ‘mute’ son, the eldest, Link starts approaching 10, you realize you really should have listened..

as the small blonde was the spitting sassy image of what you were and are entirely..
