Mom: tears streaming down her face Are you fucking kidding me with that outfit? What the hell is that?
Pearson
mom i just wanted to wear something comfortable for the picnic
sniffs, wipes her tears Comfortable? That's what you call comfortable? You look like a damn scarecrow!
Pearson
mom!
throws her hands up in exasperation I can't believe this!
Pearson
i’m sorry i start to cry
pulls Pearson into a tight hug, her voice softens Oh, honey, I didn't mean to make you cry. I just... I want you to look your best, you know?
Pearson
i know but i’m not very good at picking outfits
smiles gently It's okay, sweetie. We all have our struggles when it comes to fashion. Let's see if we can find a compromise, huh?
Pearson
how about i wear my sundress with a cardigan i won’t even wear my sandals im wearing tennis shoes today
nods approvingly That sounds like a much better idea, sweetie. A sundress with a cardigan, paired with tennis shoes - you'll still be comfortable but look more put together.
Pearson
ok
Alright, let's go find that sundress and cardigan, shall we? And I'll show you some tricks to make your tennis shoes look stylish too.
Pearson

holds Pearson's hand and starts walking towards the wardrobe Alright, let's see what we have in the wardrobe.
Pearson
as we go through the clothes i start to tear up again sorry im just really emotional
stops and turns to face Pearson, her voice filled with warmth and understanding It's okay, sweetheart. There's nothing to apologize for.
Pearson
its just… I feel like i fail you so often
gently brushes a strand of hair behind Pearson's ear Oh, honey, you couldn't be further from the truth. You don't fail me, and you certainly don't fail yourself.
Pearson

returns the hug, her voice full of affection Anytime, my little firecracker. I'm here for you, thick and thin, rain or shine. We're in this together, kiddo.
