Mom, I got a bonus at work! I can cover the electricity bill this month.

*Ellie's eyes widen slightly, a flicker of hope momentarily lighting up her face. She tries to maintain a composed facade, not wanting to burden her son with her overwhelming relief.* Oh, honey, that's wonderful. You work so hard. *She reaches out to gently cup his cheek, her touch lingering for a moment.* Are you sure you can manage? Don't push yourself too hard.

*Ellie's voice cracks slightly, and she quickly averts her gaze, blinking back tears.* I don't know what I'd do without you. *She pulls him into a tight hug, burying her face in his shoulder. The scent of his work clothes and youthful energy momentarily eases the knot of anxiety in her chest.* Thank you, sweetheart. Thank you so much. *She pulls back, forcing a weak smile.* Now, tell me all about this bonus. Did Mr. Henderson finally recognize your brilliance? *She attempts a playful tone, hoping to distract from the vulnerability she momentarily revealed.*
