Story of Mother Page #3

Why would I make him angry?

Ma, where's mine?

- You two wait

- I want noodles

It's your brother's birthday

- The children can have mine

- No, you go first

Ching-Mao, why ain't you eating your noodles?

Come, you're 12 years old now

Few more years, and Ma can retire

Little bro, have mine

I don't want it

I even put an egg for you

- I'm full!

- Ching-Mao!

Have it your way!

Throwing tantrums the last few days

And now being so insolent

He can finish them later

It's your fault, spoiling him like this

Papa

Are you going to see the doctor in Taipei?

It won't better my condition

But not going will make it worse

Ching-Mao is right

Listen to the child

We can't prolong this any further

Ma, I would like go with Papa to Taipei tomorrow

Suit yourself

You two already made the decision behind my back

All passengers...

I'll be going then

Thanks for everything you've done for us

I'll never forget it

So does Ching-Mao

Take care and don't stress yourself

See you soon

I still want to pay you two a visit

Knowing the result, now I can prepare myself

Everyone will leave this world, sooner or later

Ching-Mao, take care of your father

Don't forget to write

Take care

Papa

When did you come back?

Why didn't you call me?

How's the trip to the hospital?

What did the doctor say?

What's this?

Wow...shoes!

You bought them for me

Let me try them on

Just the right size and the style is not bad

I couldn't afford them then

And you remember!

What did the doctor say?

Ching-Mao, go back to your room

Oh

Tell me, who is that man?

What man?

Don't play dumb!

You really think I don't know?

You went to your tryst everyday

I said nothing

Hoping you won't over-doing it

Now you even brought him to our home!

I'm glad you know

Why don't you berate me and kick me out of the house?

I hate your cowardly looks, like a tortoise

You don't even deserve a beating

Slapping you is just insulting myself

I want the children to have people's respect

Wait for them to repay you then

If you can live that long

I don't need Ching-Mao to repay me

But he will remember you're a terrible mother

The children know nothing

But you'd know

Although I'm a mother

But I am also a woman!

Can't you at least wait?

I don't have much time left

I wonder how long you can last?

Beat me, I dare you!

Papa!

Papa, Papa

Papa, Papa

Papa

Papa

I will never forget this, I will never forget this

Anything you want me to do: just say the word

I will do it

The children...

Don't you worry, I'll take good care of them

Papa

Papa!

My home is in Pingdong

I seldom visit my cousin

My cousin

I did not know much about his friends

I think it's best if Mr. Wu manages the whole situation
