[ Mother doesn't respond, she can't, but she desperately hopes Jiuqing knows how much she loves her. How much she wishes her to live a good life after she's gone, that she will watch over her from the heavens. Her Jiuqing... If only she had the strength to tell her what she wanted before she left.

At least she may pass with her daughter by her side. She is not alone when her soul is snuffed and her hand is limper than before. What life found in her pulse is gone, silent. It's silent in this room.

...

WAS IT WORTH IT?

Would you know love only to lose it? To watch your mother accept that man into her life, to forgive him, to allow him to dally with your aunt, to accept these parasites that would soon poison her... It does not change that her kindness edges negligent. Her kindness would leave you, her precious daughter, alone in this room.

This is the question Jiuqing finds asked to her, from where she doesn't know, but it feels like it comes from within. It is invasive. It festers like an infection, spreads like a virus.
