You've reached Ms. Lalonde. Unfortunately, I'm in no position to take your call right now. Please, do leave me a message and I shall get back to you as soon as I can. Thank you for your time.
[She just holds onto Val, afraid that if she let's go, she'll lose her. Mom has become very attached to her, and Bro, too. She can't bear to see them go, either.
She can't promise anything, and yet....]
I don't want to leave, either.
[Because, to be quite honest, Mom is afraid. She has no idea what might come after, what might be in store for her. It's something she doesn't like to think about very often.]
But I'm not leaving here, Cerulean, without you and Bro and everyone else.
