She clenched her teeth, forcing a bland smile to remain on her face the whole time, staring hard at Tetsushi. Though it didn't show, anger was rising like bile at the back of her throat and she was possessed of a powerful urge to thoroughly throttle the little worm. And she was related to him?
"You sit here, and try to convince me that you aren't selfish, but you've never even asked what you do. You've never even tried to understand me. It isn't a child's responsibility to understand the actions of their parent. I am not obligated to do anything for you, least of all believe that you have nothing but my best interest in mind."
She inhaled deeply, forcing herself to calm, knowing that if she wasn't careful, she'd make a scene. Much as she liked fighting - an urge tempered in her later years - she had no wish to cause a commotion at the party.
"And then, after all of this demand for pity and perspective, you turn it around and go out of your way to guilt trip me, saying you leave if its what I want, because clearly I'm the big bad villain, making your life suffering, running you off from your friends. Leave my life. Act like you died. Oh yes. These are clearly the words and actions of a loving parents desperate for the love an understanding of their child. If you want to leave so badly and free yourself from you guilt then go Tetsushi. Go. But know that you do so without my blessing and without my forgiveness."
She turned then, waving a hand dismissively, expression one of barely contained contempt. She was not interested in talking to him any further, and departed immediately to find somewhere else to stand in peace.
