VelvetDarkness said:Anyway, Vixen has been respecting my need for space and letting me get on with it but her Mum came and sat beside me. She didn't say anything or attempt to interact at all and she wasn't staring at me or making me feel uncomfortable in any way. We sat there together for nearly two hours in total silence. She wasn't reading or knitting or anything at all, just sitting with me. I started to cry but it wasn't even for my mother. It was the sympathy and love that this woman was radiating towards me, her determination to sit with me even if there was literally nothing else she could do for me, her devotion to easing my pain in any way that she could, to the exclusion of all else on earth.
Yep, that's my mother, she's very intuitive. She's been praying for you as well my darling. You know she's been itching to adopt you since your own mother began to become ill and now you've left her no choice. You WILL be assimilated into the Johnston hive mind, resistance IS futile.
It made me think of Vixen and how ridiculously unselfish she has been. She has a tiny one bedroom flat and I've been under her feet being bereaved for weeks. She travelled to the town Mum was buried in with me and stayed there as long as I did. She has been determined at every turn to do everything in her power to help me through this. There aren't enough words to express how close we have become, even more than soulsisters. I owe her and her family so very much, a ludicrously astronomical, unpayble debt of love, time, patience, understanding and peace.
SLAP!
As other posters have said, you owe me nothing whatsoever. You've been cleaning up like the maid and cooking almost every night. In fact, I may not allow you to leave when you're better. I've always wanted a live in servant Seriously, anything I can do to help you eases my own pain over this. I've known your Mum since I was 13years old and you've been like family to me for years.
So I sat there with Vixen's Mum and cried over how incredibly fortunate I am to have these wonderful people in my life. My first happy tears, my first feeling of joy since Mum passed. It felt like a huge turning point and for a moment, all the weight inside me lifted. It was the first time I truly believed I might come through the other end of all this one day.
Bitch.
You just made me cry.

Love you too my beautiful soulsister, always and forever, no matter what happens. I have no doubt that our roles will reverse again, just as they always have. That's how good karma works.
