Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to 36 in order to pay the high tuition (学费) for my brother and me. They don’t act in the 37 waya that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is 38 luxurious (奢侈) for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the39 .
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I sat down beside her. “Mom, I have a question to ask you. Is there 40 between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice. She didn’t answer immediately. She 41 her head and continued to sew the quilt.
I was very worried because I thought I had hurt her. I was 42 and I didn’t know what I should do. But at 1ast I heard my mother say the following words:
“Susan,” she said 43 , “Look at this thread. Sometimes it is 44 , but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt 45 . If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen 46 , but it’s really there. Love is 47 .”
I listened carefully but I 48 her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly49 seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked 50 . It seemed both of them had had a serious illness. After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother supported my father 51 on the country road.
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.
“Susan, don’t 52 me.” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.” 53 his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and 54 .But from this experience, I undentand that love is just 55 in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.
