#45: The Other Mom
Did you have an imaginary friend at one point in your childhood? I don’t remember I ever did, but it’s not uncommon for kids to have imaginary friends. This kid might have had an imaginary friend in the shape of another mother. They used to talk about this “second mom,” but whenever they were asked to elaborate, they just said she wasn’t around.
Maybe it wasn’t an imaginary friend. Maybe they did remember their past life, and they somehow remembered that other mother they used to have in that past life. I wonder if they thought about that other mother often or compared her to their current mother. And I can’t help but wonder how her mother felt about this.
