My mom only had one
eye. I hated
her She was such an
embarrassment. She
cooked for
students and teachers to
support the
family.
There was this one day
during
elementary school
where my mom
came to say hello to
me. I was so
embarrassed.
How could she do this
to me? I
ignored her, threw her a
hateful look
and ran out. The next
day at school
one of my classmates
said, EEEE, your
mom only has one eye!
I wanted to bury myself.
I also wanted
my mom to just
disappear. I
confronted her that day
and said, "If
youre only gonna make
me a
laughing stock, why
don't you just
die?"
My mom did not
respond I didnt
even stop to think for a
second about
what I had said,
because I was full of
anger. I was oblivious to
her feelings.
I wanted out of that
house, and have
nothing to do with her.
So I studied
real hard, got a chance
to go abroad
to study.
Then, I got married. I
bought a house
of my own. I had kids
of my own. I
was happy with my life,
my kids and
the comforts. Then one
day, my
Mother came to visit
me. She hadnt
seen me in years and
she didnt even
meet her grandchildren.
When she stood by the
door,
my children laughed at
her, and I yelled at
her for coming over
uninvited. I
screamed at her, "How
dare you come
to my house and scare
my children!
GET OUT OF HERE!
NOW!!!"
And to this, my mother
quietly
answered, "Oh, Im so
sorry. I may
have gotten the wrong
address," and
she disappeared out of
sight.
One day, a letter
regarding a school
reunion came to my
house. So I lied
to my wife that I was
going on a
business trip. After the
reunion, I
went to the old shack
just out of
curiosity.
My neighbors said that
she died. I did
not shed a single tear.
They handed
me a letter that she had
wanted me to
have.
"My dearest son,
I think of you all the
time. Im sorry
that I came to your
house and scared
your children.
I was so glad when I
heard you were
coming for the reunion.
But I may not
be able to even get out
of bed to see
you. Im sorry that I was
a constant
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
couldnt stand
watching you having to
grow up with
one eye. So I gave you
mine.
I was so proud 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."
the son got into tears,
but it was too late.
