My mother despised me because I was the unintended consequence of a one-night stand. She poured all her love and attention into her students, treating them as if they were her own flesh and blood. One day, when her favourite pupil confessed his feelings for me, she flew into a rage. She slapped me hard across the face and called me a whore. Years later, as Alzheimer's clouded her mind, she forgot I even existed, yet still remembered every single one of her precious students. The irony was that not one of them ever came to visit her in the nursing home. They all loathed her just as much as I did.

She couldn't accept that the reason she had hated me for all those years was based on a lie.In an instant, she visibly aged. The next time I saw her was at the airport.She stood at a distance, watching me leave.I pretended not to see her, saying goodbye to Miss Hudson instead.No, now she is my Hudson Mummy."It is very dry in winter there. Remember to moisturize often.""Don't try to save money. Make sure to get along with your classmates..."Only when Annette arrived did Hudson Mummy reluctantly say goodbye.I saw my mother again when I went back to visit Hudson Mummy.This time, I was leaving for a study abroad program.I came back to ease Hudson Mummy's worries.Over the years, I had earned good money working on projects with my advisor.I learned from the internet to hide a gold necklace in a Pringles can as a gift.Hudson Mummy's eyes were red.I happened to make eye contact with my mother standing by the window.She had lost weight and aged considerably, lookin

I saw my father for the first time sitting nervously in the reception room, occasionally wiping his sweaty palms on his pants.It was the first time I'd seen him with a smile.As soon as I entered, he handed me a box of milk he had bought."Quincy, Dad wants to discuss something with you. Your sister is struggling with math. I was wondering if you could tutor her if you have time."I looked up, confused.Wasn't my father a math teacher? Why would he need me to tutor my sister?Father awkwardly ran his fingers through his thinning hair."You know how it is with family. I can't teach your sister well. I can't bring myself to be strict with her."My heart sank.When I was little, Father had chased me out of the house with a broom.He'd thrown rocks at me and hurled the vilest insults.I knew if I hadn't won that gold medal, he wouldn't even call himself my father.Miss Hudson was right. After I won the gold, everyone suddenly became nice.I declined Father's request. Perhaps

After the league competition, Miss Hudson arranged for me to stay at a secret location that only she and I knew about.My education transitioned to online learning.I couldn't afford to have any more accidents.When the results were announced, it was inevitable that my mother would discover I was left-handed.Sure enough, on the day the results were announced, teachers in the office congratulated my mother.Of course, she didn't believe it."Nonsense. Quincy's right hand was broken. How could she write? You must have misread," she said to the teachers.A teacher immediately led my mother over, comparing details from school to other specifics."Look, did I misread anything? Your Quincy is truly a genius," the teacher said.My mother swayed unsteadily, muttering, "No, no, that's not right."She approached the education bureau and officials again, this time reporting suspicions that Miss Hudson's institute had bought placements.After a period of investigation, the institute wa

The sensation in my right hand was fading, and I struggled to push my mother away before stumbling forward. Weak from blood loss, I collapsed onto the ground face-first. Step by step, my mother approached with a brick in hand, a disturbing smile on her face. Just as I thought my right hand was beyond saving, a group of passing college students noticed my predicament. Seeing them, my mother stopped, pretending nothing had happened. She walked back to her bike and quickly fled the scene. Fortunately, these students happened to be medical students and quickly called 911 while providing me with basic first aid. Thanks to their efforts, my hand was saved, but it would take some time before I could use it again.Miss Hudson rushed over, her eyes turning red at the sight of my cast. However, she held back her tears, knowing that I would be devastated to miss the competition I had worked so hard for. The anesthesia had not yet worn off, making speaking difficult for me. "M

The line of students doing their mathematics worksheets came to a halt, as all eyes darted between my mother and me.I stepped out from the crowd. How could my mother ever allow me to study math? How could she stand to see me win math awards?"Miss Anderson, have you forgotten? You were the one who kicked me out of the house!""It's normal for mothers and daughters to have friction. Let bygones be bygones. Don't make a scene."Deflection was my mother's go-to tactic.With those words, bystanders would start trying to mediate, as if our rift was due to my disobedience.No one knew how hard it had been for me just to survive all these years.And no one knew that only at times like this would she call herself my mother.But this time was different.Miss Hudson, out of breath, ran from the front of the line and shielded me behind her."Quincy, you ungrateful wretch! I'm telling you, if you don't come back with me today, you'll never be able to take the examination!""I won't giv

"Am I really a winner?" I asked, still in disbelief.Miss Hudson nodded. "Congratulations, Quincy. You've qualified for the national competition!"News quickly spread throughout the school.On my first day back in class, My mother burst in, ignoring the teacher mid-lesson, in front of everyone."You barely pass math tests. Tell me, how did you cheat your way into nationals?""If you have doubts, you can report me to the officials," I calmly replied.The teacher attempted to calm her: "Cheating? Maybe Quincy just got lucky."Of course, how could they believe a student who had barely passed math for years?"Quincy, you should have told your mom about this good news. We all heard from the school. No wonder she's upset.""I don't want a cheating daughter!" My mother spat.After leaving, my mother reported me for cheating to the school board and competition officials.I always knew she wouldn't be on my side.But I never thought she would try to destroy me.If I had cheated, sh

After years of being called ungrateful, what difference would it make to truly be ungrateful for once?I was determined to become a champion in the state competition, take first place in the nationals, and join the Olympic training team. I wanted to leave this place and go somewhere I truly belonged. Unfortunately, fate had never seemed to favor me.The state competition was held in the capital city, which would take hours to travel to from our small town. Even if I hadn't spent the hundred dollars Dad gave me, it wouldn't be enough.My fingers touched the locket on my necklace, a keepsake from Grandma.On her deathbed, Grandma had pressed the locket into my hand."All the money I've saved over the years is in here. My precious Quincy, when you need money, pawn it. Don't hesitate to use it. I won't be able to see you become a mathematician, but I'll watch over you from heaven..."Grandma... Grandma...Tears blurred my vision.I murmured her name over and over.My grip on t

The closet was stuffed full of garbage.I looked at them, but they only rolled their eyes at me.Then a bucket of cold water was poured over my head.The bucket was slammed onto my head, and they rushed forward to attack me."That's what you get for being that old hag's daughter! Serves you right!"So it turned out that all the students my mother adored actually hated her.I found it laughable. My mother treated them like her own daughters, and in the end...They were mostly privileged girls who had never truly suffered.Except for me, who had fought to survive since childhood, like a wild child.They were no match for me at all.I straddled them and fought back.But I was caught by the dorm supervisor.My mother rushed over.As soon as she arrived, she slapped me."Who gave you permission to touch my students?"The girls, with messy hair and pitiful faces, huddled behind my mother."Miss Anderson, we were just trying to help Quincy unpack. We didn't expect her to sudde
