It was a glorious Equestrian morning, and Twisted Visions was on her way to see her Ex Marefriend and Her young colt. Ex was a loose term, as the only reason they weren't together was because her Marefriends parents and family had a small... issue with Twisted. She worshipped Discord... And her Marefriends family didn't like that... So they were forced in this odd sense of limbo, as neither of them could at the moment afford a place for both of them to stay. It was tough, but Twisted was happy that she could see her colt and Marefriend.

All in all she was in a good mood, it was mothers day, first mothers day actually and she was going to spend it with her child. She had everything planned too! First they were going to go out for something to eat, and then maybe a walk in Canterlot Park. She really didn't care what they did as she knocked on the door. Patiently she waited until her Marefriends mother answered the door.

"Oh... It's you... I'll go get Sapphire" She said in a cold tone, closing the door once again. She was able to ignore the disdain, waiting once again for Sapphire to open the door. Twisted smiled happily, reaching out and giving her beautiful partner a kiss. "Hello love, are you ready for mothers day?" She asked. Sapphire just looked at the floor "We aren't doing anything Twisted... Me and Tumble are going to some of my relatives house for a big Mothers Day party" She said, looking away.

Twisted tilted her head "Well ok, that's fine Darling. When are we leaving?" She asked curiously.

Sapphire sighed. "Your not going Twisted... Your not allowed too..." She said, looking back at her. Twisteds looked at Sapphire, unable to figure out why. "It's Mothers Day though... We should be together... We are both tumbles Mom, and it's our first mothers day with him..." She started. "We should be together..." She said once again, her hears falling back in upset.

Sapphire just sighed "It's... It's our Family Tradition Twist... I have to go" She said looking at the tall mare. Twisteds heart dropped at these words, tears welling up in her eyes. "Family... Am I not a part of your Family Sapphire? We had a child together and we may not live together but don't I deserve to spend this day with you and Tumble?" She asked, choking up slightly. "After everything I have done for you... Everything that I have given up to be with you? Practically ruining my relations with both my own family and all but totally giving up my faith for you so that your family can be happy? This is our day... our day to spend with Tumble. That's what's important about this day." She finished, looking at Sapphire.

Sapphire was silent for a long time... Obviously trying to find the words to say. Her thought was interrupted though by her mother calling out to her. "Sapphire! It's time for us to go! Please finish up at the door!" The older mare called, making Twisted flinch. Sapphire sighed "We will spend time together with Tumble on Fathers day alright? Just for you" She said with a weak smile. "I have to go Twisted... I will talk to you later..." She said before softly closing the door.

Twisted just stood there for a long moment... before she finally turned away. She felt as if her heart had just exploded, and had no idea how to pick it up and put it back together. This was the FIRST Mothers Day where she could call herself a mother... And she was alone... She walked down the street, her head hanging down as she tried to block out the sights and sounds of other families enjoying this day.

Her brain was in a whirlwind... Nothing made sense in any way at all. Chaos at it's worst and even she was unable to decipher.   She was not Family it seemed... Despite being half the reason Tumble even existed... How could Sapphire allow this to happen to her? How could she so willingly let Twisted be secluded from her own son on this day.

She walked into the park, finding a secluded bench and finally allowed herself to burst into tears. A family party where her partner and her child could go, but she couldn't. Was she not a part of her family? Was she not important? Was this Sapphires way of saying it was over? If it was how could it have not waited until tomorrow? So many possibilities crossed Twisteds mind and each one hurt more then the last. What was one to do in a situation like this? How did one cope? Not being able to be with there family on such a day... Whatever it was, Twisted didn't know... And she was content to stay where she was and cry

This is actually a true story about what happened to someone I know, and I felt a need to write about it. They aren't a mare of course, but even as a father, Mothersday is an important day to spend with your child and there mother, and being discluded is just wrong... What would you do in this position, and what would you think? How would you deal with it? What would you say and who would you go too? They are all alone today because they actually did cut all relations with there family, and tried to convert from Wiccan to Christianity to appease her family, and his girlfriend has never once stood up for them. She just lays low and lets him take this abuse without so much as a finger lifted in his defence. He adores her, and I don't know how he could ever bring himself to leave her. Would you?
