Seeing her mother like that, Luong seemed embarrassed but still asked and talked normally. When I got back, she hummed and told me to postpone the wedding.
I am the child of a single mother, growing up in the objections and criticisms of those around me. But that doesn’t make me feel inferior, but on the contrary, I love my mother and become stronger. It was not until I was in 10th grade that my mother told me about my father – the man who abandoned my mother and me. Mom said, Dad broke up after learning that she was pregnant. He thinks that I am not his son, he has not looked for my mother and children for many years, and I have never known his father’s face.
Mom apologized to me, because of me she didn’t come to anyone. Fortunately, grandparents loved the mother and daughter, so they helped a lot. Over the years, my mother worked hard and worked hard to earn money to raise me up. My mother never forced me to do anything she wanted, she always respected my decision. Because I love my mother and want to make up for her better life, I try to study well.
After finishing university, instead of choosing to work in the city, I decided to return to my hometown. I apply for an IT job in an industrial park about 20km from my house. It’s a bit far, but it’s good to be close to my mother at night. Going to work, I know and love Luong – a colleague 1 year younger than me. Luong is a gentle, hardworking girl. She understands me, always knows how to make me feel secure about our relationship.
The two of us dated for 3 years, I decided to get married because I wanted to settle down soon, then give birth. My house is anchored, I want to have children for my mother to be happy. Luong agreed to that suggestion of mine. So I took her home to meet her mother and grandparents. Everyone was very happy to see me bring my girlfriend back, everyone loved her. Until I took her to my mother’s room, my mother had been suffering from back pain for more than half a year and could not walk much, almost lying in one place.
Seeing her mother like that, Luong seemed embarrassed but still asked and talked normally. When I got back, she hummed and told me to postpone the wedding. I asked her why, or did she see my mother sick and was afraid to serve her? She sighed and told me: “The two of us are still young, so let’s wait until we get married, if your mother is so sick, focus on taking care of her, she’s healthy and then we’ll figure it out.”. I was silent before Luong’s words, did not expect her to think so thoughtfully.
The next day, she urged me to arrange the work of taking my mother to the city for medical examination and treatment. She confided that she would take care of her mother with me, because I only have her as a relative. I also planned to take her to the doctor a long time ago, but she kept regretting the money, afraid of bothering me, so she refused to go. A few days my mother was bedridden and I was very worried. My mother took care of me all her life, now that she is sick, I have to take responsibility.
No matter how I persuaded my mother, she did not listen, but I did not understand what Luong said, but my mother agreed to go to the doctor. After that, she often came over to my house to play and take care of her mother. Mom also loves and loves her future daughter-in-law. I don’t have many relatives, I just hope that my mother and my wife will get along well in the future and consider each other as family.
