Question

  My mom only had one eye. I hated her.

There was one day during primary school where my mom came to say hello to me. How could she   30   this to me? I threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day one of my classmates said, “EEEE, your mom only has one eye!” I wanted my mom to just disappear (消失) from my life. I told her that day, “If you’re only making others laugh at me, why don’t you just   31  ?” My mom was silent… I didn’t   32   to think about what I had said, because I was full of anger.

I wanted out of that   33  , and have nothing to do with her. I studied hard and went to Korea.   34   I had my own family. I was happy with my life and my children.

One day, my mom came to visit me. When she stood by the door, my children laughed. I shouted at   35  , “How dare you come to my house and scare (惊吓) my children!’ GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!” My mom quietly answered, “Oh, I’m so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong   36  ,” and she went away.

One day, I came back for a school reunion (聚会). My neighbors saw me and told me my mom died. They   37   me a letter.

My dearest son,

I think of you all the time.... I’m sorry that I was an embarrassment to you when you were growing up.

You see….when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn’t   38   you having to grow up with one eye. So I gave you mine. I was so   39   of my son who was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye.

With all my love to you,

Your mother
