What's your answer?

Yes

"Yes," you say immediately and confidently.

"Are you sure?" The expression on her face is elation, but mixed with that devilish gleam rising in her eyes again.

"I'm sure." You are.

"Then that's not a good enough answer. We'll start as we mean to continue. Yes what?"

You don't even have to think about it. "Yes, mommy," you say, and it feels so right coming out of your mouth, like coming home.

She shivers slightly as half the muscles in her body seem to tense for a second. "Say it again," she orders.

"Yes, mommy."

"Oh god..." she pulls you close, arms clenched around you possessively. She kisses you deeply, her tongue exploring your mouth, and for a second you're utterly lost in each other. "Oh, Scottie," she says when she surfaces for air. "Oh, my little one. Oh, we are going to be so happy together."

You feel like you've flung yourself off that cliff, and you didn't fall or fly. Instead Sangeeta caught you, and she'll carry you from now on.
