I enter the hall with my high heels with a senior and another member. I’m feeling very awkward with my shoes because I rarely wore heel, not to mention I’m super sensitive about my minor disability - my legs are not equal in length. Heels in fact create more negative health impacts to my backbone.

However, that evening, I walk with pride, putting aside all those little whispers about my left leg.

It’s almost 7 pm. I look around in the hall and found mother and my friend who introduced me to SSEAYP sitting together. I greet them with a smile and return to my posting at the exhibition booth.

In some depth of my heart, I feel my inner self happy as it is very rare for my family members to support my cause. The sight of my mother there gives me pure joy. Somehow, I realized people cannot be real loner. No matter what, we all want to be with someone or having our existence being acknowledged by friends especially family regardless how poor the relationship is between members.

I’m very grateful for my friend giving mother a lift to the centre. This gives me a peace of mind the whole evening knowing mother is in good hand.

Tidbits: Another reason feeling awkward is I’m wearing skirt. You know… I have not been wearing skirt for 5 years? And my costume is a Chinese Samfu with skirt?!
