Mothers Day

At 11 I met my mother for the last time. Later I recognized her in a magazine. I wasn't sure, so I looked up birth certificate and I learned that my mother was Yeh Su Nee, one of the most popular Hong Kong writers whose novels fill entire shelves in any bookstore. I have successfully repressed my mother from my life - is it not too late for a 44-year-old who has a child of his own to search his mother. Could I say "Hello, it's me, Bin Chuen Choi, your son. Long time no see.". How will she react? Perhaps she'll refuse to see me or say, "It did take you very long to call. Let's go eat Dim Sum. I know a good spot downtown".
