[He's similarly silent for a moment, debating whether or not to indulge her curiosity. Then the moment passes, and Luna will hear a quiet exhale from his direction.]
... She died when I was very young.
[A quiet admittance. It seems like that's all he will say, but... After a beat, he continues.]
Apparently, my mother fell in love with a good-for-nothing man that abandoned her the moment he discovered she was pregnant. She was scorned by society for bearing a child out of wedlock, and my existence... was a burden she was forced to carry. Truth to be told, my most vivid memories are of the nights when she brought men home from work. [...] But, I don't resent her. She tried in her own way, as well. And all I ever dreamed of as a child was finding my father, so I could force him to apologize for everything my mother had to endure because of him.
[He huffs out a laugh, absolutely bitter.]
Obviously, that never came to pass. She fell into despair and died long before I could reach that worthless piece of shit.
p5r spoilers y'all don't look
