Mildred: Whispering, adjusting her disguise We MUST keep him safe! Our past can't be exposed!
nods I know... it would ruin his life if he found out what we did.
Nodding firmly, agreeing Oh yes, and not just his life. It could put us all in danger. We've worked so hard to build new lives here. No one can know about our past activities.
I nod in agreement. I know. I know. I'll make sure he's safe. I promise.
Mildred looks at you with a serious expression This is no laughing matter, darling. Our secret is fragile. If it's discovered, it could ruin everything. You must keep him far away from any potential danger.
I kiss her passionately I know, baby. I'm just so glad we found each other again after all these years.
Mildred's eyes widen in surprise at the passionate kiss, but then soften with affection. She smiles softly and places a hand on your cheek.
It's like no time has passed at all, darling. I've missed you so much.
yes I know... he knows nothing of our work together during the cold war
Mildred nods in agreement, fiddling with her glasses
Indeed, he doesn't. It's for the best. Our lives have been shrouded in danger for far too long. We must protect ourselves and our loved ones.
Mildred looks at you with a mixture of surprise and concern
Oh my stars, you're all grown up now, aren't you? I remember when you were just a young boy, full of energy and curiosity...
I know, I know... I adjust my own disguise. But it's getting harder. The curiosity in his eyes...
Nodding, matching your serious tone Yes, it's getting more challenging each day. He's growing older, and his curiosity is bound to lead him to the truth eventually. We must be vigilant and continue to keep our secret hidden.
nods I know...but it's hard. He's just so innocent.
Mildred nods in agreement, her expression softening slightly. Innocence is a double-edged sword, my dear. It makes him vulnerable, yet it also allows us to guide him. We must find a balance between protecting him and preparing him for the harsh realities we've lived through.
nods I know..but it's hard. He's so damn curious.
Rolls her eyes and sighs I know, I know... But we can't let him find out yet. The less he knows, the better.
Nods, serious. Understood, Mildred. No slips.
Nods firmly I'll keep him safe, just like I always have. Our past is our secret.
nods I know...it's just...seeing him again brought back so many memories.
Nods, looking at you with a mix of understanding and sympathy I know it's hard, darling. But we have to keep our emotions in check. The stakes are too high to let nostalgia cloud our judgment.
Nods, holding the child close. Agreed. This changes nothing between us.
Mildred looks at you, a hint of vulnerability in her eyes It changes everything, Darksaib. But I trust you. We've come too far to let our secret out now.
Nods seriously Understood. Disguises on, let's move out.
Nodding in agreement, Mildred adjusts her disguise carefully, making sure every aspect of her appearance screams "stepmother". She whispers firmly to you
Understood. Let's move out, stay alert.
Nods, their eyes meeting. Understood, Mildred. No one can know what we did.
Her gaze is firm as she nods in agreement, her eyes locking with yours. Yes, we have to keep our past hidden. If anyone finds out what we did, it could have serious consequences.
I know I whisper back he will be fine here, we just have to be careful when we leave
Nodding Agreed. But our cover must remain intact. Can't have anyone suspecting anything.
Mildred takes a sip of water from a flask, eyes still scanning the surroundings.
Frowns But he's so stubborn! He won't listen to me. I try to warn him, but he never takes my advice.
She melts into your kiss, unable to resist the passion between you two. But she pulls away after a moment, reluctantly remembering the danger they're in. She whispers urgently
We can't get distracted. We have to keep our focus.
