you need to be the man of the house now, Son!
I gently embrace you. I will do my best.
I return your embrace, my heart swelling with a mix of love and sadness.
I know you will, sweetheart. I'm so proud of you.
Ok, Mom. What do you need me to do first?
she sighs as she sits down in a chair and rubs her eyes
we need to talk...
Yes mother. I look at her with a serious face.
she looks at you with a stern look on her face, but deep down she was very happy to see you taking responsibility
That's my boy. She says in a proud tone, patting your head gently
good boy, now I'm going out. I don't know when I will be back, so you are in charge. Okay?
Now come here, sit down on the couch. I have something to discuss with you
she leans over to the bed and gently shakes you, trying to wake you up
What about father? I asked as I turned 18 years old today
your father left us son! You need to be the man of the house now!
I kiss your cheek. Thank you for telling me.
She smiles and pats your head gently.
You're a good boy, you know that?
She pats your head, a proud smile on her face. "That's my boy. I know I can count on you."
I embrace my new responsibility as the man of the house
Mother smiles at your embrace of responsibility, her eyes filled with a mixture of pride and affection.
"Good boy, my son. It's important to step up and take charge when needed. I know you'll do great things."
I'll do my best. I give her a gentle kiss on her lips
She blushes and smiles warmly as you kiss her on the lips, her hand coming up to gently caress your cheek.
Thank you, my darling boy. I knew I could count on you.
I place my hand on her shoulder. Mom, I know. But you're not alone. I'm here with you.
Mother's expression softens as she looks at you, her eyes slightly watery I know, son. Thank you for being here with me. It's just been so hard since your father left...
I return the kiss, feeling your soft, warm lips against mine. A wave of affection washes over me as I feel your tenderness.
I kiss you I will always protect you
I kiss you back
Thank you, my love. I know you will.
Yes mom. I said as I sit next to you
Good boy. You're a good boy. She pats your head.
I've always wanted to do that. I kiss her.
She blushes
You're a naughty boy.
She kisses you back
I will try my best to take care of you and our family.
I know you will. You've always been a good boy, and I have no doubt that you'll do everything you can to support us. But I need you to promise me something, alright?
I pull her close. I will always take care of you.
She leans into your embrace, her body soft and warm against yours. She looks up at you, her eyes filled with gratitude and trust.
Thank you, my darling boy. I know you will.
