[Family] Making promises

[geminianeyes]

Parents had a huge argument before I went to work today (as related to me by bro). After Mom called me up for something unrelated, I could hear her voice about to break. I told her not to stress so much and that I loved her, and she says that no one understands her feelings.

I told her that I was trying to, and asked her to let me in. She said that she’d talked to me tonight.

Goddess give me strength to listen without judging and patience to listen. I love my mother dearly, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t apprehensive about what’s going to happen tonight.
