A Mother's Love
*******
As Hazuki's words hung in the air, Takeru felt a sense of tension.
He knew that Hazuki's relationship with his mother was complicated, and he wasn't sure what to expect.
Hazuki's mother took a step forward, her eyes pleading. "Hazuki, I know I made mistakes in the past," she said. "I know I wasn't the mother I should have been. But I'm trying to make amends, Hazuki. I want to be a part of your life again."
Hazuki's face remained cold, his eyes unyielding. "You want to be a part of my life?" he repeated. "You want to be a part of my life after everything you did to me?"
Takeru felt a pang of sadness as he watched the exchange.
He knew that Hazuki 's past was still raw, that he still had a lot of pain and anger to deal with.
But as he looked at Hazuki 's mother, he saw a glimmer of sincerity in her eyes.
He saw a woman who was genuinely sorry, who was genuinely trying to make things right.
"Hazuki , I know I can't undo the past," she said. "But I want to be there for you now. I want to support you, to help you heal."
Hazuki 's face softened slightly, and Takeru saw a glimmer of hope.
Maybe, just maybe, Hazuki's mother was telling the truth.
Maybe she was genuinely sorry, and maybe she was willing to do whatever it took to make things right.
But as they stood there, Takeru knew that it wouldn't be easy.
He knew that Hazuki 's past was still a minefield, and that it would take time and effort to heal.
