October 18. COVID-19 fiction short story - New Norm of Hugging
Written in both English and Chinese
I opened the door. To my surprise, an astronaut stood in front of me. I stepped backwards.
A familiar voice said, “ It is Mom.”
She was fully covered from head to toe.
“Take this and change. “ She handed me an astronaut uniform and waited outside.
I went inside and changed. As soon as I came out in my new fit, she hugged me tightly and said, “Darling, I miss you and I need a hug.”

我需要一个拥抱 ...
門鈴響了,我打开门。一名太空人站在我面前。 嚇我一跳,我退后一步。
一個熟悉的声音说:“是我,媽咪。”
她从头到脚被太空裝完全遮住。
“改裝穿上這套衣服。 “ 她递给我一套太空衣服,站著在外面等。
我改了裝出來,她急不及代紧紧地拥抱著我,说:“我很掛念你,需要一个拥抱。”
