My mother only had one eye. And because of this, I never wished her to show up in my school, being afraid that my classmates would I had an ugly mother.

One day, I was terribly ill at school. My mother came.“Your mom only has one eye?!” asked some of my classmates. I was so .I wished my mother would just from this world. “If you make me teased(嘲笑),why don’t you just die?” I shouted at her, taking no notice of the sad look on her face. My mother just handed me some medicine and left without saying .

At that time, I felt to say what I always wanted to say, and I didn’t think I had hurt her feelings very much. That night I saw my mom in her room, so quietly, as if she was afraid that she might wake me. Even so, I hated her tears from one eye. I made a : I must study hard and leave my mother.

Years later my dream came true. I was quite successful and lived happily. I never thought of going back to see my “ugly” mother one day I got a letter, which said, “My son… I’m sorry I only have one eye. When you were little, you got into a(n) and lost your eye. As a mom, I couldn’t stand watching you live with only one eye. So I gave you . I never regretted what I did because I love you…”

I cried out aloud. Only then did I realize how beautiful my mother was!
