After that incident, Tommy's mother always blamed him for his father absent. She couldn't stand the thought that he forced her to sign the divorce paper. The home that was previously full of warmth became desolate and full of anger.
"Mother, I'm home," Tommy always said it when he got home. Seeing his mother crouched on the floor, he was startled. "Mother, are you alright?"
Tommy's mother looked towards Tommy with reddened eyes. She yanked the hand that Tommy used to touch her.
"Don't touch me with your filthy hand!"
Hearing the yell, he was startled. His feet brought him back several steps. His mother was still looked distraught with dirty clothes and so on. However, it was not the most important point as he realized that his mother was still staring at him with hatred.
"Mother…."
"Don't call me 'mother'! I hate you!"
