I always try to picture
in my mind what really happened...

:14:07
but she would never explain.
:14:10
She would only say by the time
she reached Chungking...

:14:13
she had lost everything.
:14:15
And I said,
"Wait, what do you mean 'everything'?

:14:18
What happened
to those babies?"

:14:23
There were so many things about
my mother I never understood.

:14:27
This is the only one
I never forgave.

:14:32
The babies.
:14:35
You know?
Two babies?

:14:38
The babies? We all thought
that the babies had died.

:14:42
- But last month at a church picnic--
- You know...

:14:45
two babies your mother leave
on the roadside, in wartime?

:14:49
It's miracle,
but we find them.

:14:53
Yes! Can you imagine?
They still alive!

:14:58
What are you saying?
They're alive?

:15:00
I think your mother
always want to find them...

:15:03
her long-cherished wish.
:15:05
So after she died,
we tried for her;

:15:07
- writing, writing, writing.
- "My--"

:15:14
- This is from them, those babies?
- Ah, no baby anymore.

:15:20
They're alive!
:15:24
Oh, what does it say?
What does it mean?

:15:29
It say--
See here?

:15:33
They are very glad--
No, no, no, no, no.

:15:36
Overjoyed beyond belief...
:15:39
at last find you,
their little sister.

:15:49
And they say--
See here?

:15:51
How sad, how very sad...
:15:55
too late to meet their mother...
:15:57
now she no longer in this world.
