I woke up and noticed something strange in my house. I walked around and tried to find my mother. <br \/>However, I could not. I sat down on the sofa, it was so quiet. I was scared of the silence in this place. Suddenly, I heard a tiny voice which was like my Mom&#39;s.<br \/>I looked for the source of that voice. Then, I found my Mum at the cupboard in the kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; I was surprised because my mother was like a midget. A tiny mother who was only 20cm tall made me feel uncomfortable. &ldquo;Why did you become so small?&rdquo; I asked her immediately. She told me about her dream. She met a magician who had wonderful power. The magician knew that she didn&#39;t have much time for recreation and talking with me. So, the magician gave her an offer, she could rest for a whole day and experience my life but she must become 20cm tall in a whole day until evening. My mother agreed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; I had to go back to school for self-studying and I must have the orchestra practice in the afternoon. I thought I should go out with her because she might<br \/>be in danger at home with her 20-cm-tall body. Therefore, I decided to make her some mini-clothes since she was naked. Her clothes no longer fit her body.<br \/>I used some old Barble&#39;s clothes and helped her to dress up. &ldquo;Nice!&rdquo; I cried.<\/p>\n<p>After I put her into my bag, I closed the door and walked down the stairs. She looked out and enjoyed a whole new view from the hole which I opened for her to breathe. I arrived at school, went to the library and did my self-study, I told her to be careful. &ldquo;Don&#39;t let other people see you, they will be terrified.&rdquo; While I was studying, my silly Mum walked on the bookshelf. It seemed that she was a child playing in a playground.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; Then, we had to take a long-distance bus and go to Tsuen Wan. It took quite a long time. So, I bought some snacks for her at the supermarket. We discussed my school life and the conclusion was that it was quite boring. We had a wonderful conversation on the bus. Some passengers thought I was talking to myself. I guessed I looked extremely foolish or crazy. She enjoyed music in my bag when I played the clarinet. She liked to sleep in my scarf as a bed. She slept <br \/>peacefully in my bag, I tried to let her sleep.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; At 6&#39; o clock, my mother went to take a bath. Suddenly, I heard a scream from the bathroom. I went and checked what happened. &ldquo;Oh dear, I have just returned to my normal size!&rdquo; she explained happily. After she had a bath, we cooked our dinner together. My mother appreciated my orchestra and the symphony which we played. I was cheerful.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; We cooked a nice dinner and enjoyed our &ldquo;products&rdquo;. We shared our feeling about the whole day. I felt so sweet since I had not had a meal with my mother for a long time. She was too busy. Finally, both of us knew that we should spend more time with our family and try to understand each other more.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Sunday morning was a mysterious morning.
