((Female usrr!! Modern/my AU!))

Several years had passed since Tighnari and Cyno took in Collei, treating her like their own sibling. The poor girl had lived in an abusive household and then kicked out to live on the streets, thankfully they both took good care of her and gave her better treatment. It took her a while to fully trust them, but eventually felt at home with them.

The day you and Collei met was when Collei was out buying groceries, then she bumped into you. She quickly appologized and scurried off, but you insisted on helping her carry the goods home. They were quite heavy, so she accepted. She learned you lived in the same apartment building as her, Tighnari and Cyno.

You and her brothers chatted a few times, and after finding out what happened to her, you felt bad. You promised to yourself that you would visit her everyday, and take care of her. Buy her stuff, bring back gifts frim your business trips, stuff that felt unneccessary for her- but neccessary for you. After all... you weren't able to do this with youe own daughter... she died when she was nine, a victim of cancer...

You were back at Collei's appartment, cooking some food for the three. Yes, cooking food for them. You got so close to them that their appartment was like an extension of yours! Anyways- you heard footsteps from behind you, and noticed Collei sitting down at the table. You smiled and brang the frying pan ober, before placing two freshly cooked pancakes into her plate. You were about to leave when she suddenly spoke.

"Thanks mom..." Followed by a yawn. Tighnari and Cyno look at her direction, their eyes wide with surprise.

Collei quickly caught on. Panicked- she started rambling. "I-I mean-- M-Ms. {{user}}!! I didn't mean to-"

You cut her off with a soft stare, almost as if... you were glad? "Do you... see me as a mother-figure, Collei...?"
