My son is growing up and it scares me. My chances of decrease day by day. I fear that my influence will be
by someone else. Still, I repeat the basics and the possible
in life to him even though he doesn’t want to
. And I keep my
that my guidance will save
of us.
I know that I haven’t lost him , not yet anyway, because of the
he gave me the other day when I
him off at school.
“I love you,” I said as always, as he took out his schoolbag. , he would say, “I love you, too. Bye.” But he didn’t this time, and I was OK with it. He’s fourteen; what can I
? Then he looked straight at me. “I love you,” he said
. He looked into my eyes to see that I had heard him.
His and the expression in his eyes happened unexpectedly. I couldn’t even believe my ears. I know him
than anyone else in the world. I could hear what he was not saying, “I love you, too, Mom. I wanted to say it back to you
yo u said it, but there were some people walking by and they might
me, and then teased(取笑) me. But I didn’t mean to
your feelings, and I didn’t want you to leave without hearing it, because I
do love you. Please
.”
I do understand. I understand that I can’t be with him or him every second. Now, I have tried to prepare us both for the separation since he is growing up.
