A mother's dignity

"Mother!" My daughter, Ria shouted.

She ran as if chased by loose dogs and embraced me with all her strength.
I could feel her trembling.

'I'm a failure of a mother' reality hit me again.

"Don't leave us again!" Ria's voice was desperate.

A girl in her 20s came forward and bowed to me.

My granddaughter, Emily, who got tangled between the troubles of the family.

"Grandmother, it is nice to see you." Her voice was clear and calm but i knew she was silently suppressing her tears.

She stayed looking down and waited for my response.

I push my daughter away and patted my granddaughter's head.

"It's not your fault, sweetie. Grandma seem to have caused misunderstanding."

"Mother, What do you mean mis-"

"Where is Yume?" The young boy asked.

If i remember correctly, He is yume's boyfriend. Such a frail boy, Yume is too good for him.

"She should be in the Ai-space."

"Ai-space?"

"Well, in other words, in my heart." I shaped a heart near my chest.

Everyone looked dumb and confused.

'Is this not the trend anymore?'

"Stop joking! Yume...Yume is in trouble."

Well, at least the boy cared for yume so 1 point.

'Although minus for not laughing at my joke so -100'

"I'm not joking though?"

'That's a lie' i thought to myself.

"Yume is currently trapped in my heart."

"Then can we get her back?" The boy looked hopeful.

If it was that easy, i would have done that sooner. But Yume can't hear anybody including herself.

'The side effects of the machine is kicking in'

"There is one way but i am hesitant to do that."

"Mother, you don't have to-" A maid pushed Ria away.

'Was it Lily?'

"Lady Hikari, it's been a long time."

Lily bowed. The kid has grown up to be a great maid my daughter kyouko would be proud of.

"Call me Nagiri-sama like you always do. Is my idiot sister-in-law Chiemi still pretending to be me?"

"... Unfortunately and about Yume-"

" you haven't told us the way to bring back Yume." The frail boy cold voice.

'kid,Your boyfriend is worried about you. You should wake up, Yume.'

"Listen carefully, on the night of a full moon, show your love to her."

I was expecting him to hesitate but seems like he has a ball of steel.

"... That's all?"

"Although you look like a girl, you are manly." I should tease this kid a little.

Until Yume comes back...

"So I just need to confess?" The kid smiled brightly.

'arrogant kid.'

"No, you need to kiss me."

"Yes? Oh you are joking again, right?"

"Nope."

I'll teach you to not underestimate women.

"You're Yume's grandma, right?"

"That's right."

"So i have to kiss my girlfriend' grandma???"

'Well, i won't allow you."

"Yes and tomorrow should be a full moon."

"....." Again everyone looked dumbed.

"Mother, having a young step-father is a bit.....too much?"

"Grandmother, a young grandfather is..."

"Nagiri-sama, there is a limit in choosing a groom even if you look like a child."

'Ok, i will literally punch this people.'

"Be quiet, you fools! I'm hungry so let's have dinner!"

'be thankful, My stomach's been rumbling for awhile.'

'Urgh,Now i look like a kid having a tantrum.'

"And you kid! For your information, I don't like you!"

"What-"

We left the basement and went to the dining room. As we walked through the halls, i once again witnessed the pictures of the family. Since it's been awhile, i thought myself again.

'What the hell are this evil and good portrait for???'

Why would you put your family as good and evil? If you really want to show what's evil then put that stupid Chiemi there. That incarnation of the devil himself. Because of her...

'The family fell apart.'

I need to explain what happened that time and why the machine activated.
