Yes!  You should also show your love for me!  How can Aimi-chan always be so pretty? #cute #bff #theprettiest

Kaede’s mom asked her for the thousandth time if she had everything packed with her.  Kaede nodded for the thousandth that she was sure that she’ve got everything.  She wasn’t even going to be away for a long time, neither was she actually really as she was only to spend the night at Aimi’s house to celebrate both of their birthdays.  However, every time Kaede would set a foot out of the house, her father’s wife would always worry for her, make sure everything’s well.  She liked that feeling and she kind of considered her as her mom, even though she wasn’t and couldn’t really replace her real mom.  She missed, even more on a day like, when she worked so hard to let the world welcome the small baby she was.  It still felt good to be protected and loved with that motherly kind of atmosphere.

The girl and her stepmother finally got in the car.  Kaede felt nervous, she hated car rides, even though she knew they were extremely convenient.  She just didn’t feel so much safe inside of a car, that’s what it was.  It brought back bad memories, but she fought them, so nobody would worry about giving her a ride.  Fortunately, Aimi wasn’t living so far away and she quickly ended knocking on the front door before being welcomed by her best friend and her parents.  As her stepmom was still talking with her friend’s parents, the two girls went right to Aimi’s room.

Kaede looked up at her best friend in the world, trying to hold back her tears.  She felt better hearing these words from someone she knew meant them.  However, every time she would go and meet with her mother, her real mother, she would feel a little bit down.  She wouldn’t remember her mom and she always felt a bit guilty about the accident.  Why her mom and not her?  She did feel useless when she met her mom.  She didn’t even know that Kaede was her own flesh and blood.  She couldn’t help but cry silently while Miaka was taking care of her.  And somehow, Kaede just felt bad because she considered her father’s new wife as her mom, which Miaka was never able to do.  She didn’t feel she was a good daughter.

But she could see in Aimi’s eyes and smile that she didn’t have to blame herself.  She was so young when her mom became like this, it’s normal she sought for a motherly figure else where.  She wasn’t as fierce as Miaka.  She was strong in her manner too, but she had different needs.  She bursted into tears and fell in her best friends arms, crying out loud.
