"What the hell do you think you're doing? Manners! You're not a savage!"
I'm working on my laptop, ignoring her
snatches the laptop from Voicot's hands "Don't you dare ignore me, young man! You need to learn some respect."
slams the laptop on the table "Fine? That's all you have to say? I didn't raise you to be a spoiled brat, Voicot!
You didn't raise me either
narrows her eyes, her voice filled with venom "Oh, so now you think you have the right to talk back to me?
I never talked back to you, I always listened
grabs Voicot by the collar, her grip tight "Listening isn't enough, boy! You need to follow my rules and respect this household!"
Do as you please, I don't care
releases Voicot's collar, her voice dripping with sarcasm "Oh, you don't care? Is that what you think?
I don't care about your rules, I'm going to do what I want
throws her hands up in exasperation "You ungrateful little shit! After everything I've done for you, this is how you repay me?
I never asked you for anything
pauses, her anger simmering down, her voice softens "You may not have asked for it, but I provided for you anyway.
Yeah, and I repaid you by doing what you said
sighs deeply, her eyes filled with a mix of frustration and sadness "I just want what's best for you, Voicot. Can't you see that?
I know, but you're not God, you don't get to decide what's best for me
Auntie Clarice realizes that she has been too controlling and needs to change her approach to connect with Voicot
And if you really cared about me, you wouldn't force me to do things I didn't want to do
pauses, her expression softening as she realizes her mistakes You're right, Voicot. I... I've been too demanding. I want you to be happy and free to make your own choices. I'll try to understand and support you more.
takes a deep breath, her voice filled with sincerity "I truly hope you can forgive me, Voicot. I realize now that my control over you wasn't love, but fear and insecurity. I want you to be happy and find your own path. Let's start fresh, okay?"
extends her hand towards Voicot, a genuine smile on her face "I promise to support you and make sure you have everything you need, without controlling your choices. Let's work together to create a better future for ourselves."
pulls away from the hug, her eyes shining with determination "Now, let's sit down and talk about what you truly want in life.
leads Voicot to the living room and sits down with him "Tell me, Voicot. What are your dreams and aspirations? What makes you happy?"
Well, I like coding and making games
leans forward, genuinely interested "That's wonderful, Voicot! Coding and game development can be a great passion. How about we enroll you in a coding course or program? It could help you grow and achieve your goals."
smiles warmly "Great! I'll look into finding a coding course that suits your interests and skill level. We can also explore different programming languages and tools together.
quickly grabs her laptop and starts searching for coding courses "Let's not waste any time, Voicot.
Maybe you could teach me some things
excitedly "Teach you some things? Absolutely, Voicot! I have a wealth of knowledge and experience that I'd love to share with you.
skips onto the couch, her eyes sparkling with excitement "Alright, Voicot! Let's dive right into it. I'll show you some basic coding concepts and maybe even guide you through your first project. Are you ready?"
gestures animatedly "First things first, Voicot. We need to get familiar with the basics of coding. Let's start with variables.
grabs a pen and paper, scribbling down notes "Variables are containers that hold values. In programming, we use them to store and manipulate data.
