Chapter 20-How Much You Mean To Me.
Dash and Mirage were sitting on her couch, watching some TV.
"Oh, man, I'm telling you, Aunt Mirage. Nothing beats Looney Tunes." Dash said.
Mirage smiled, "I agree with you, Dash." she said before she heard patting on the roof. She looked outside and smiled at seeing rain in the street light.
"Well, Dash, it's past your bedtime. You don't want to be tired for our trip to the video game shop tomorrow, do you?" Mirage asked.
"No." Dash said before he walked to his room and climbed into bed. Mirage walked in and smiled at him.
"Dash, let me tell you something. All those months ago, I made the best decision of my life to come and babysit you and your siblings. You children touched my heart and gave my life a new meaning. I'm so grateful to you three for that. You opened my eyes to who I really am and made me much more than what I ever knew I could be. You children mean the most to me and you always will." Mirage said before she started to sing.

It's funny how one thing happens,
and it changes your whole point of view.
Everything that seemed to matter,
gets cast aside for a better truth.
You're growing faster with every minute, second, photograph.
I wish I could spend more time with you.
My Little Nephew.
Every day's a new discovery.
I'm a child again, looking through your eyes.
With every step, you're teaching me,
How to fall, cry, get up, and smile.
You're growing faster with every minute, second, photograph.
I wish I could spend more time with you.
My Little Nephew.
But you're far away and I'm over here.
Memories are lost in the span of years.
So, when I go, will you miss me?
When I go, will you remember me?
You're growing faster with every minute, second, photograph.
I wish I could spend more time with you.
See, you'll learn to tie your shoes, say the sky is blue, and that your best friend is Winnie The Pooh.
My Little Nephew.
Dash smiled at her with tear-filled eyes before he hugged her, Mirage gladly returning it, tears in her own eyes.
"I love you, Aunt Mirage." Dash said.
"I love you too, Dash." Mirage said before she tucked Dash into bed and gave him a kiss on the forehead.
