Yang Du, a writer based in Taiwan, shared: “I wrote about how my mother used to wait for me when I was a child. When I left for university in Taipei, she would always say at the station, ‘Make sure you come back. Don’t make me wait like a cat, always watchful.’ Even after I grew up and traveled abroad for work, she continued to wait for me—always like a vigilant cat, longing for me to return and massage her. After she passed away, the roles reversed, and it became my turn to wait like a cat—for her to visit me in my dreams.”
