Now that’s just nonsense. Maia began, and then immediately flushed. Sorry. Not loving Reyes. But Sorana… you love her way too much to be a bad mother.

It wasn’t like she didn’t understand though. Maia had thought herself a bad mother a dozen times over, and every time she felt justified in doing it. She still did, in certain cases. Certainly there were better ones out there.

I get it, though. It’s hard to think you are a good one when they don’t seem to want you to be a mother to them. But letting them feel that way I think is… maybe part of it. And loving them anyway, and doing what you can. It’s hard to remember sometimes what being that age is like. It had been years, after all, and every year they left it further behind.

As far as Bronco goes, I’ve found the best way not to mess things up is to know you both are going to. And then just figure you’ll work it out together. She added finally with a laugh, slightly self-conscious of the flow of words she’d just doused Teya with. Probably not all of it welcome advice.
