"Yes, I am Asteri, Panta's mother. You are the woman Isaac was cloned from?"
[i]Panta hugs her mother tightly with a wide smile and Asteri gently returns the hug.[/i]
"Isn't my mother great?!"
English
-
[i]Irina didn't speak as she held Panta tightly, allowing the girl to cry into her shoulder as she herself closed her eyes and rocked her, back and forth. She had never had to calm anyone in such a terrible situation before, so...this was quite new for her.[/i]
-
The little girl cries for several minutes, mumbling about her mother between sobs. When she's done she sits there in complete silence except for a few sniffles.
-
"...Panta, darling? ...I'm here. And I'll always try to be here, unless the time comes when I have to protect you, and my two children. What I find brace...is that you would tell me all of that, instead of keeping it bubbled up, allowing it to build up until it drives you mad...that's something that I respect."
-
"Thank you....You remind me of mom. You've done truly horrible acts, but you're kind and loving." Panta still speaks in a whisper. "Please don't leave me too...."
-
"I'll try, kiddo...and when I say that, I mean it. Even if something happens between you and Isaac... I'll be here, alright? And if I'm not, then Arianna will.."
-
"Thanks again, Irina. You're the best." Panta giggles lightly and nuzzles her face on Irina.
-
"You don't have to thank me." [i]Irina smiled, hugging Panta tightly. The girl reminded her so much of Arianna...well, if Arianna didn't know swordsmanship.[/i] "It's...getting somewhat late. Want to head off to bed?"
-
The little girl yawns as if on que and nods. "Sleep sounds good. I'm tired from running."
-
"C'mon, then." [i]Irina smirked as she lifted up Panta, carrying her to her apartment complex.[/i]
-
Panta giggles louder and clings onto Irina. "Weeee! You're awesome!"
-
"Me, awesome? You flatter me.." [i]Irina giggled, as the two reached her apartment.[/i] [i]Instead of knocking, Irina literally kicked the door out of the way, before entering her bedroom and plopping down onto her bed - with Panta in her arms, of course.[/i]
-
The girl cuddles up with the older woman and nods. "You're like a second mother to me."
-
"...And you're like a fourth child, to me.. Y'know. Other than Arianna, Isaac, and Mion...Mion, you wouldn't know her. Would you like to get something more comfortable to wear?"
-
"I'm..." Panta is inturrupted by a yawn. "...fine. Thank you, mom." Her eyes close and she starts to drift off with a smile plastered in her face.
-
"...Mom.." [i]For a moment, Irina went completely silent, before leaning down and kissing Panta's forehead. She sat upon the bed for a moment, as a single tear fell from her right eye.[/i] [i]Irina stopped crying as she rose up, leaving the bedroom in a much better mood.[/i] ((End?))

((End))
