This is Tachibana Makoto. I'm sorry that I didn't make it to the phone in time. If you could leave a message, I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Take care
A little. She was in Italy so I didn't have enough time to actually see her, but I called her up. Mostly trying to see if she was happy, if she was sick at all, just things about her life. I never got to know her that well.
[Actually he worried the hell out of her because he talked with her on the phone for like six hours straight and sounded near crying the whole time.]
Apparently she was never sick in that world, so when my dad proposed she married him. I was actually a legitimate kid in that world.
Yeah. It was weird, but nice. When - uh, back in my world... the universe I'm from, I wasn't allowed to know she was my mom. Mafia family, bastard children from mistresses is kinda a big no-no. 'Course, she was half Japanese, so the whole 'hey you're an illegitimate kid' thing was a shocker to only me.
Yeah. It was ... it was nice. She played the piano for me a little. She taught me how to play when I was younger. [he sighs, taking the cigarette out of his mouth briefly and looking at it, then putting it back in.]
Sorry to unload all this on you. I just... you're the only one I really feel comfortable talking to about this.
I would have gone with 'less angry at the world like it owes you something'. [He's not ENTIRELY without self-awareness. Still, he smiles a little.] I dunno, I always thought that - that if I had my mom, things would have been different. I would have been different. But ... it seemed like I was still pretty much the same, just for different reasons.
... You know, it'd probably be better if I didn't find you back on my world, I bet you're some legendary hitman with a heart of gold. It's always the nice ones.

Did you ask her anything that you've wanted to ask her?

It sounds like it was a valuable time there. Do...you feel like you got closure?
[And now he knows more about Gokudera. Some very precious information.]

[It sounds rough from what he was hearing. He doesn't know how to respond, really. Other than just listen to him]
I'm glad that you got to talk to her.

I don't mind listening to what you need to say.
[He looks a little embarrassed.]
I just...don't know what to say half of the time.
I'm very happy that you got to experience that. I know that if I ever lost my mother, well, I don't know what any of us would do.
It also explains why you seem a little more...hmm...how to put it...?
Subdued. Yeah.

And there's nothing wrong with that.
