I clearly felt that I did know nothing about my mother but her unrequited love to me.I found I did only know her as my mum, but never tried to know her as a person.Since I moved so far for further study, we even hadn’t got enough time to share our life, though we can see each other through video calls.Only when I have to live a life on my own, did I realize how much my mum had done for me.Almost every aspect! I remembered my clothes were always uncreased hanging, my shoes were always clean and my room was always dusted nicely.After my school work, I could usually enjoy hers “special cuisine”.I even could breathe in the mouth-watering aromas rising up from the meal.
She’s a math teacher with a special sense of numbers.When we went for shopping, she could quickly figure out which was better as well as cheaper.But sometimes she wouldn’t be so clear of how much money she had spent on my leons.It doesn’t matter I truly put her on a pedestal in my childhood.Just as most teenagers, I used to trap in the so-called adolescent agonies.That time I was in my last year of high school, however, I began to be obseed with series, movies and stars.She often talked to me but I didn’t take her words seriously.There was a time a cold war between us.After an exam, of course my marks seemed such a me, but she said nothing when saw my report card.Later I found she was in her room checking my papers carefully, most of time my answers raised her eyebrows and sometimes she would take some notes.Her back was thin and lonely, suddenly It struck me that I was so childish and it was time to act like a adult.
Last year, it was freezing cold outside and I bought her a pair of gloves.As she received the parcel, she was so excitedly and gave a phone call, told me that how much she fond of these gloves and her friends would like to buy another pair, too.At that moment, she was happy as a child and I could imagine her face was brightened.I discovered that I had mied many of her big moments in her life.In my mind, my mum has always been my heroine.She knows about everything and could get everything properly done, but I forgot she used to be a girl just like me.Maybe I should find this earlier so I can learn a little bit more about her.
