A scar that never heals (Ralph X Daughter reader story) - Detroit: Become Human

A new father, finding a new home (Day 2 with Ralph)

It's the next day. It is now 8 AM in the morning. Yesterday was a great day for you, despite that you got emotional. You get emotional everyday anyway. You were still asleep but Ralph was already awake. He saw that you were still asleep, he kissed your forehead and puts more of the blanket on you, and then he waters the succulent he picked for you and he opens the curtains at the window to give the plant some sunlight. The sunlight came into your face and you were waking up.

Ralph: *he smiles as you wake up* "Good morning, (your name). How did you sleep?" *he walks to you, kneels down and pats your head as he strokes your hair*

(Your name): *you smile at Ralph* "Hey there Ralph! I slept well. By the way, thanks for humming to me and rocking me when I had that nightmare. I felt safe with you as you comforted me." *you stretch and you take off your braid*

Ralph: "Anything for (your name). Ralph had to comfort (your name) because she looked scared."

(Your name): "I'm sorry, I was though... I had a nightmare and bad memories about what happened before. I hope it wasn't too much of a bother."

Ralph: *he lays his hand on your cheek and he moves your head up to look at him* "No, of course not! If (your name) ever feels scared or sad or anything like that, she can come to Ralph and he will give her a hug and make her feel safe, okay?"

(Your name): "Okay, thank you so much, Ralph!" *you hugged him*

Ralph: "You're welcome!" *he hugs you back tightly, he strokes your hair while hugging you and he kisses you on your cheek*

(Your name): *you smile at Ralph as he kisses your cheek, you look at your backpack for a second and then you notice a corner of a book you've always carried with you* "I forgot I had it in there..."

Ralph: "What is it?"

(Your name): *you go to your backpack, you open it and you pull out the book, it was a book of memories of you and your mother and old photos* "This is mine and my mother's memory book. This is where we keep our photos from the past. Would you like to look at them with me, Ralph?"

Ralph: "Ralph would love to look at the photos with (your name)!" *he smiles*

(Your name): "Come here, sit by me." *you leave a spot for Ralph to sit*

Ralph: *he sits next to you*

(Your name): *the title of the book says 'The memories of (your mother's name) & (your name), like mother, like daughter', you open the book to the first page to where it's filled with photos of your mother when she was born and also her birth certificate* "This was when my mother was a baby. And this is her birth certificate."

Ralph: "Ralph bets that it was a long time ago."

(Your name); "I bet it is too!" *you turn the page, the page is filled with photos of your mother when she was a little girl* "These photos are of when my mother was a little girl."

Ralph: "Ralph thinks that she was adorable when she was a little girl." *he smiles at the photos*

(Your name): "I agree!" *you smile at Ralph, you turn the page and it's filled of photos where your mother was a teenager* "This was when she was my age and younger, also a couple years after she graduated high school."

Ralph: "She really did grow up."

(Your name): "I agree with you, Ralph. She did..." *you turn the page, the next page shows photos of when your mother was pregnant with you and some photos of when she had her baby shower for you, you gasp and you were about to cry and emotional* "This was when my mother was pregnant with me, I was in her stomach. I'm her first and only child."
