"Happy Mother's Day. Forgive me for not being in Hong Kong, for making you worry. Forgive me for not being able to give you a proper Mother's Day."

HKers in exile write notes to their mothers, via Aegis, a restaurant providing them with work permits.

"To all parents:

Thank you to all those in Hong Kong who continue to support us. I know you have not forgotten us in Taiwan. Even though we are separated by the sea, we hold Hong Kong close to our hearts. The movement is not over.

"Every time there is a holiday, I feel especially sorry for my family. Mom, this is my first Mother's Day apart from you––I'm sorry.

Everything is fine in Taiwan. Even though I'm not near you, you have to take care of yourself. Don't worry about me.

I hope I can see you soon."
