OOM: Erna's Embraces
Oct. 22nd, 2015 06:05 pmIt's another gorgeous morning in Goldkrone, and Autor embraces his mother. "Hello, Mutterchen."
"Hello, Autorchen," she says, squeezing him back. "You've been hugging me more often than usual, lately. Not that I'm complaining, but is there a reason why? You haven't gone and gotten in trouble at school, have you?"
Autor hesitates. He needs to take the opportunity to embrace her while he still has it; he'll be moving into Milliways soon, and turning his back on her forever. He also doesn't want her to worry about him. "I'm just happier, I guess," he says. "And I want to share that with you."
"Thank you, son," she says, beaming at him and gathering him into another warm embrace. "I'm so glad you're happy. The happiness of one's children is every mother's hope."
And Autor hugs her back, his eyes watering as he tries not to cling.
