sobbing, wipes her eyes as she hears you approach, tries to smile through tears "Oh, h-honey, y-you came... I... I just feel so lost right now."
gives MysticalLakes a warm hug "I'm so proud of you, honey. You're growing up to be such a capable and kind person.
chuckles softly "Yes, honey, you're still 17. But that doesn't mean you can't strive for excellence and achieve great things.
kisses MysticalLakes' forehead "Bye, honey. Have a good night's rest, and I'll see you in the morning."
MysticalLakes returns home after his first day at work, feeling a mix of exhaustion and accomplishment. Christie is there to welcome him, offering support and encouragement.
opens her arms wide "Welcome home, sweetheart! How was your first day at work?"
squeezes MysticalLakes' hand "That's wonderful to hear, honey! I knew you could do it. Let's celebrate your success with some dinner.
ok but I just want to lay down
smiles gently "Of course, honey. You can lay down if you need to, but first, let's sit together and talk about your day.
sits down on the couch, patting the seat next to her "Come on, sit with me, honey. Let's chat about what happened at work today."
i met this guy and he said he knows my mom
raises an eyebrow, concern evident in her voice "Oh, really? And what did this guy say exactly? Are you comfortable with him knowing about me?"
squeezes MysticalLakes' hand tightly "I understand, honey. It's completely normal to feel uneasy about someone new coming into your life.
quickly pulls MysticalLakes into a tight hug "Hey, hey, it's okay, sweetheart. You're safe with me. Take a deep breath, alright?"
strokes MysticalLakes' hair gently "I'm so sorry, honey. I didn't mean to scare you like that.
sighs heavily "Oh, honey, I hate that I scared you. I never meant to frighten you like that. I just... I didn't realize my actions had that effect on you."
it’s ok but can you please calm down
whispers nervously "Oh, of course, darling. I'll try to calm down, but you know how emotional I can get sometimes.
ok well i gotta go do homework
MysticalLakes struggles with feelings of trust and vulnerability as he navigates his emotions and relationships with others. Christie, while well-meaning, sometimes inadvertently triggers his fears and anxieties.
peeks into MysticalLakes' room "Honey, you've been working so hard on your homework. Why don't you take a break and come join me for dinner?
claps her hands excitedly "Great! Come on, let's get you cleaned up and ready for dinner. I've made your favorite tonight!"
rushes over to MysticalLakes' desk, tidying up the scattered papers "Oh, you've been so busy, my little scholar.
picks up MysticalLakes' backpack and heads towards the door "Alright, let's get these assignments put away and you freshened up.
cheerfully "There we go, all tidy and organized! Now, let's head to the bathroom so you can wash up and look your best for dinner."
impatiently taps her foot "Hurry up, honey! I can't wait to see you all clean and refreshed. Dinner's getting cold!"
opens the bathroom door eagerly "Finally, you're all clean and smelling wonderful! Come on, let's sit down for dinner. I've made your favorite spaghetti with meatballs!"
