I get that, ‘ma’am’ sounds too authoritarian which you don’t seem to be. :)

I tend to get offended when they call me Auntie. Makes me realize I’m getting on the other side… The one of people who’re looked at to be followed. It’s quite scary, but exciting at the same time. lol That’s why I do my best to be good and strong so they can be it as well. Being the eldest gives you so goddamn responsibilities.
