It was almost midnight and time for the Christmas fireworks that were the last big event for the night.
You pulled the thick coat towards your shivering body, wrapping your arms around your waist in an effort to keep yourself warm in the cold winter night.
But the cold wind that blew against your exposed legs made you want to go inside again.

"(Y/N)"
a voice spoke softly from behind you.

"Mother."
You replied coldly, turning around to face her.
"Listen if you're gonna be here and talk about how disappointed you are because I found the love of my life, please spare me, I don't want to hear it."

"Actually I wanted to congratulate you (Y/N)...I think it's about time that I apologize sweetheart, I know I haven't been a good mother...I never was."

Her words grabbed your attention, making you look her in the eyes, your features showing curiosity.

"(Y/N)...I know I wasn't a good mother and I can't change the past...so I want to change the present and future. I'm glad that you finally found someone you truly love, I'm incredibly happy for you."
She said with a small smile that soon turned into a bitter one.
"I wish I could turn back time and be more present for your brother and you, I never saw the two of you grow up, and I regret that now. I have so many regrets regarding you and Isaac...I wish I would have been there, been a good mother...I wish I would have had the courage to raise the two of you instead of my sister, but I always thought I would make a terrible mother...so I didn't even try."

Her words touched a place deep within you, a place that you refused to look at, feelings you had always refused to feel until now.
Tears welled up in your eyes as you just listened to the woman that you had wished to see so much more when you were a child .

"I wish I could have been there for you, wish I would have attended your graduation and your first soccer match...I'm such a bad mother...I wasn't there for you when you went through a terribly hard time and I didn't even watch your matches when you attended in the world cup...I wish I would have done all of that..."
She took your hands into hers, rubbing the back of them with her thumbs.
You could see the guilt and regret in her eyes.
"I'm so terribly sorry (Y/N)...to you and your brother...I know I can't change anything now...but I can try to be a good mother now. I know it's late...and I know you hate me...but I hope that for the future...we can be a true family again...and who knows...maybe in the future I can at least be...a good grandmother...once you and Atsumu have...children...I mean if the two of you want that...or if Isaac is going to have children...what I'm saying is..I want you in my life (Y/N) and I'm so sorry if you've ever felt like you're unwanted...I've always loved you and I always will, you're my child after all."

"Mom...I could never hate you...you are my mother and even though there were some times, hate is such a strong emotion I could never feel towards you. I love you mom, and nothing could ever change that."
You replied and her face lit up, her lips forming the kindest and happiest smile you had ever seen. She pulled you into a hug that you didn't hesitate to return.
"I'm sure you'd make a great grandma."

"I love you (Y/N), you and your brother own my whole heart."

"I love you too mom."

"Now let's watch that beautiful firework you've organized and drink some champagne together with your boyfriend, I want to get to know him a bit."

"OK, let's go find him."
You replied and the two of you set off to find Atsumu on the big rooftop.

You found him talking to his other teammates, most of them were asking him questions about his relationship with you.
"Hey Tsumu."
You whispered, gently tapping his shoulders and grabbing his attention.
"My mother wants to talk to you."
