ANYWAYS getting back to the original topic...
Perhaps Ayu has realized why her mother was so distant about certain things - so that she can learn to take care of herself. A Song for XX was an album showing her anguish as a child, but lately none of her songs (since....LOVEppears/Duty!) have focused on her childhood. It is possible that they have reconciled (maybe after her Mother read A Song for XX).
Ayu's mother was a single parent working to support Ayu and her own mother (who passed away when Ayu was recording poker face) so she had very little time to nurture her since she had to bring food to the table and a roof over their heads.
And Ayu did not write Dearest for Mika, that was for Tomoya Nagase. Mika and Ayu's relation seemed to have sprang up over the past year x.x.
