Chinese New Year.
As a teenager, I wished I didn’t have to visit all those relatives I only meet once a year during the Chinese New Year. I haven’t celebrated CNY for two years now. This festival has always been about my grandparents, and now they’re no longer here. If I could have them back again, I would gladly visit any relative who would have me. On this night of reunions, their absence is so deeply, and so regretfully, felt.
