confidential information:
M is tense.
on our way to pick up H,
I let M pour out everything thats on her mind.
M cried.
I couldn't.
I think she felt better after she did.
she does this every now and then..you can't blame her.
I said everything i could,
no lies.
sincere.
she has been the backbone to not only us, but to them.
M, you can always count on me.
I told her,
"he says, mental health is first M,"
and she agreed.
i told her,
"we're living these days, that we will never get back"
i told her,
"time is the best medicine,
along with really great people supporting you and
maybe some chocolate"
then M says,
"I used to worry about you so much,
but you're such a good kid.
and you're growing more responsible,
and independent everyday.
i've raised you well"
I replied with,
"dont be so full of yourself M"
with a laugh-
what I really meant to do was thank her and tell her I love her,
that everything she has done for me has made me who I am,
...
but during the minute of silence that followed,
no music playing,
no cars passing,
it just felt right not the say anything at all,
because
I knew,
that she knew,
what I was thinking.
