Childhood Memories: Mom

She was not around too much. She had to travel lots for missions. When she was, we were very close. She loved to be among people, to know what made them who they were. She was also a counsellor and a storyteller. Some called her a shaman or priestess. I never knew for sure if she really was either. But she traveled off planet often. My dad didn't even know the reasons. But they trustes each other implicitly. My dad told me she loved many people, but that he was first in her datapad. I didn't understand that then. Now I know it to mean she was polyamorous. She cared for me very much, though... and love me and my dad dearly. I could remember that feeling.
