Now that I was stepping foot on this land again, the city seemed to have changed a lot. The airport had been rebuilt, and the interior decoration was new. It looked very grand.
Her ears were filled with the thick Beijing accent of her hometown. Although it was a long time since she had last heard it and was unfamiliar with it, she felt very warm in her heart.
I was back. After eight years, I was stepping foot on this land again.
However, in my heart, there was a little uneasiness, but more than that, there was a deep sadness in my heart.
My mother had been waiting at the airport for a long time and had arrived early. She must have specially dressed up when she found out that I was coming back.
After eight years, when the mother and daughter met again, they didn't hug each other warmly like normal people. They only stood quietly and looked at each other. There was alienation and estrangement in their eyes. I think she must have sadly discovered the fleeting coldness in my eyes.
From her face, it wasn't hard to see how much she wanted to go forward and hug me tightly. She wanted to tell me how much she missed me as a mother for the past eight years.
How she wanted to tell me how worried my family had been about me since I had been away for so long.
Maybe she regretted what she did eight years ago … I thought.
However, all the words were stuck in her throat under my cold gaze. There were thousands of words, but she couldn't say them.
"Mom, I'm back."
Amidst the noise, I smiled and broke the awkward silence between us.
Only then did my mother come back to her senses. The corners of her mouth twitched with some difficulty. She laughed dryly and muttered, "It's good that you're back! It's good that you're back … "
As she spoke, she felt a little uneasy. As if to ease the awkwardness, she hurried forward to help me carry my luggage.
Out of the corner of my eye, I subconsciously avoided her hand. In a daze, my mother's hand froze.
"Mom, I'll do it myself."
As I said this, there was no change in my expression. I knew that my cold gaze must have made my mother's heart ache a little because I saw a sudden look of pain on her face.
I suddenly realized that these eight years, which was neither a long nor short period of time, seemed to have been like a great flood that washed away the dependence and connection between mother and daughter.
"Xiachun … Do you still hate me? Eight years ago … I had no choice but to send you out of the country! I … I'm doing this for your own good! "
A smile appeared on my face, but I said nothing.
After a long while, I sighed. "I know …"
I know, so you really don't have to explain so much.
She gave me a deep look.
"Xiachun, is the luggage heavy? Let Mom do it for you! "
Her mother's voice was very soft and even trembled slightly. She said carefully, "Let me carry it for you … Xiachun, I want to carry your luggage for you!"
I was bewildered. I lifted my head and saw that she was frowning. Now, she seemed a little humble.
I pursed my lips and nodded silently, allowing my mother to take the luggage from me.
As we walked out of the airport, my mother tried to hold my hand.
This time, I didn't avoid it. Mother's eyes were filled with comfort!
