Always having a grudge against my stepfather, I broke down in tears when I accidentally listened to his advice to my mother
My biological father died because work accident when I was in 2nd grade. Since then, more than 10 years, my mother lives alone, doesn’t know any more man any more. My mother used to whisper, telling me to wait until I got married to find someone to rely on for the rest of my life. But each time, I vehemently protested. Because I can’t accept that my mother has someone else to replace my poor father.
However, earlier this year, my mother brought a real man home. Plus, it’s still my 18th birthday. When he walked into the house with a cake, I was extremely angry. Mother gently explained that she had studied very carefully and that he loved me very much. They’ve been together for almost 5 years now. Every month, he gives money to my mother to pay for school, buy an electric bicycle, buy clothes for me. Moreover, now that I am an adult, she also wants to live her life.
I couldn’t accept my mother’s thoughts and actions, so I overturned the cake and ran away from home. I went to my grandfather’s house and cried with my grandparents there. My grandparents advised me to open my heart and accept the other man. After all, my father passed away too long ago, my mother cannot live alone when she is old. Grandpa also said the man was very good. When I was in the hospital, it was he who cooked porridge, brought it to the hospital door, and then called my mother to come down to get it. So everyone knows that man, except me.
I returned home, feeling hatred for both my mother and the other man. I took a picture of my father and placed it on my desk, whispering to him. I don’t forbid my mother anymore, but I avoid my mother and stepfather. I don’t want to face the two of them.
Until last night, because I studied late at night, I went to the kitchen to get a drink. Through the half-closed door, I heard my stepfather’s voice telling my mother: “Or you go vasectomy. It is said that it does not affect men’s health. But let you go for surgery, I’m not sure. And we shouldn’t have children anymore, lest we blame little H. She’s already very disadvantaged, I don’t want her to feel pushed out of the family anymore.”
My mother whispered something. Uncle continued: “He’s still young, why don’t you blame him. Slowly, I’ll open up to you too. Both you and I need time to understand each other better.”
I went back to my room. Dad was still looking at me smiling, but I was so bitter that I cried. I love my father. But I also loved my mother and began to feel the sincerity that my uncle had for her and me. A man is willing to suffer losses just because he does not want his beloved to suffer. But I still can’t open my heart to accept him. How am I supposed to face him?
