Oh, that face Of a mother Her mother And that grin And the voice that never spoke aloud, only whispered “Oh, look at you, dear. You think you’re grown up? You think you’re ready to leave? Abandon your dear mother? Go start your life with the fool who got you pregnant? Oh, please. Can you get any more ridiculous than this, I wonder? Ah, dear, you’re not gonna have a happy life. I tell you what you’re gonna have. An abortion and the duty to turn that fool away. You’re not leaving here. It’s not your destiny, dear. Besides, he’s not gonna love you. Not after he finds out about your... problem. Ha-hah-haa!” Yes, eight years later the words still echoed in her mind They were the opening theme before every episode of seizures in the show of life with epilepsy It turned out to be a self-fulfilling prophecy but only by half The fool was driven away, indeed but the child remained He was a good boy who always stood by his mother’s side
Indeed friend mother means everything,the symbol of shade and benign-ness,have a good day..

It’s nice to have a few happy endings every here and there.
