I can't believe I yelled at her. She just got in the way. I have been sobbing for hours now. And what I said about wishing she left me, I don't even know where that came from.

I summon my courage and force myself out of the room. On shaky legs, I wobble all the way down to Cher and Craig's room. I can already hear her sobbing, and Craig attempting to calm her down. Slowly, I creak the door open.

"Mum?" I say.

"W-what?" She says a little harshly, but I can't blame her.

"You know that I didn't mean what I said. Right? I love you. I hated that price of crap orphanage. When no one else saw anything on me, you kept me strong just with your music. Then you yourself came along, and you actually saw something in me." Tears trickle down my face. Mum opens her arms for me to come into. I curl up into her on the bed, still in tears.

Her hugs are always so warm and comforting. It's hard to think that three years ago I didn't have these hugs to comfort me.
