it had been about two days since you last talked to childe.

you had told him that you needed some time to think and he didn't mind. he said you could take as long as you needed.

but you didn't really know what to think about. the fact that he was a part of the mafia still didn't really sit well with you.

especially since you knew about your father and how he ended up; completely soulless. the last thing you wanted was to go through that again.

you didn't want childe to end up like your father. and when you thought thoroughly about it, you once again recalled how little you actually knew about him.

the only things you knew were the only things he was willing to tell you.

of course you didn't want to invade his privacy. however, you worried that he was keeping more from you.

luckily, after you came home from work, you noticed that someone had sent you a text today. someone who could answer all of your questions. or at least, most of them.

[ xxx-xxx-xxx ]

xxx-xxx-xxx
Is this Y/n?

y/n
yeah, who are you?

xxx-xxx-xxx
Hello

You're dating my son, right?

y/n
huh wait

you're ajax's mom???

xxx-xxx-xxx
Indeed

I asked Pulcinella for your number

y/n
oh

sorry that wasn't a proper greeting

hi

xxx-xxx-xxx
Hello

y/n
soo what can i do for you

xxx-xxx-xxx
Well, I wanted to talk to you about my son

And I also wanted to get to know you

y/n
oh okay

what about him

xxx-xxx-xxx
He's told me lots about you

However, he didn't tell me about what happened recently

y/n
how'd you find out

xxx-xxx-xxx
Also Pulcinella

He keeps a good eye on my son when I can't 😊

y/n
a little worrying but alright...

xxx-xxx-xxx
Y/n, I'll get straight to the point

I'm aware my son isn't exactly very open about himself

Even to you, yes?

y/n
unfortunately

xxx-xxx-xxx
It worries me sometimes

I feel as if he's in an entirely different world

Nevertheless, he keeps secrets

From both you and me

y/n
you probably know a lot more about him than me though

xxx-xxx-xxx
It'd surprise you how little I'm actually aware of

I only know about his past, nothing more

y/n
do you know about the fatui

xxx-xxx-xxx
Although I'm not completely familiar with it, I am aware of what it is

y/n
then you know how dangerous it is

xxx-xxx-xxx
I do

y/n
why didn't you stop ajax from joining

xxx-xxx-xxx
I couldn't

y/n

xxx-xxx-xxx
Let me tell you something about his past

Something he'd probably never tell you himself

y/n
huh

xxx-xxx-xxx
When he was only a child, he ran away from home

Where he went, I haven't a clue

But all I know is when he returned, he had completely changed

y/n
changed how?

xxx-xxx-xxx
Battle hungry

Far more aggressive

I couldn't recognize him anymore

The only thing on his mind was to fight and "get stronger"

y/n
like how he is now

xxx-xxx-xxx
Indeed

It was then when his father decided to give him up to the fatui

He believed they'd deal with him better

y/n
i'm sorry what

xxx-xxx-xxx
I know it doesn't seem like a wise decision

But we had grown to be afraid of him

Afraid of our own son, can you imagine that?

y/n
he really did change

xxx-xxx-xxx
He did

And although I was against the idea, we had no other choice

The day he left for the fatui was one of the most painful days in our life

y/n
i'm sorry you had to go through that

i can't imagine how that'd be like for a mother

xxx-xxx-xxx
I'm glad he has someone like you now

y/n
yea

xxx-xxx-xxx
I do still worry for him

Sometimes, I feel as if he's involved in something he shouldn't be

Even if he's an adult now, he really is just a boy

y/n
he says he knows what he's doing

so don't worry too much, he'll prbly be fine

xxx-xxx-xxx
I hope so

I don't know what I'd do if I were to lose him

y/n
same, i guess we need to trust him

xxx-xxx-xxx
I suppose

Y/n, I know this is a lot to ask for

But please be patient with him

y/n
i'll try

xxx-xxx-xxx
He will continue making mistakes

He doesn't even know how relationships are supposed to work

But I know he'll keep trying for you

After all, you're all he has now

Maybe one day, he might open up to you

y/n
don't worry, i will try my best

i won't give up on him

xxx-xxx-xxx
I can't thank you enough

Take care of him for me

Perhaps you'll be able to do what I couldn't

y/n
ah don't say it like that miss...

and you don't need to thank me

i want to be there for him

xxx-xxx-xxx
You're a good person, I'm glad he found someone like you

Maybe the next time I see my son, he'll have returned to his old self

y/n
yeah maybe

xxx-xxx-xxx
I must go now, we'll talk again

And then you'll tell me more about yourself, yes?

y/n

xxx-xxx-xxx
Goodbye then dear ❤

y/n
goodbye take care

seen
