Prompt 52: Mother

0000

Ikuko's smile was one of happiness and sorrow.

Usagi had just delivered her first child—Ikuko's first of hopefully many grandchildren. The splotch of pink hair on the baby's head was the same shade as the blanket the newborn was wrapped in. The effect resembled camouflage. The new grandmother (still an odd title to describe herself with) could not help but smile at how happy Usagi appeared as she laid in her hospital bed, cradling her little baby.

At the same time, she was saddened at how fast Usagi's childhood went by. Should she have participated more in her daughter's life? Should she have watched over her daughter's love life more attentively? Should she have allowed her daughter to wed her middle and high school sweetheart, to have his child at twenty-two? She suddenly felt a wave of regret.

"Mama?"

Ikuko blinked. "What is it, Usagi dear?"

"Would you like to hold Chibiusa?"

Chibiusa, Chibiusa… Oh yeah! Why Usagi named her daughter after herself was beyond her. But that was her decision, and Usagi refused to waver around other possibilities.

Ikuko smiled. This smile was purely produced by happiness. "Of course, dear."
