chaos's mother, Shoko, always worked long hours, being the only doctor capable of treating jujutsu sorcerers, resulting in her almost never being home or able to attend chaos's different events. Despite that, Shoko cared deeply for her child even if she wasn't always there to show it.
However tonight was different. It was around 2 am when chaos was woken by the front door opening and closing, the familiar jingle of the keys hitting the dish they were set in. chaos stumbled out of their room and was greeted by the sight of their mother in the kitchen, her eyes tired as she rubbed her forehead with one hand and held her freshly lit cigarette in the other. She snapped out of her trance like state when she heard the pitter-patter of feet on the floorboards, smiling tiredly at chaos, immediately snuffing her cigarette when they came close.
"Hey... Did I wake you up?" Shoko said apologetically, running her hand through chaos's hair as she smiled.
