One day, Mom was sewing a quilt (被子). I 2 sat down beside her. “Mom, I have a 3 here,” I said after a while. “Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.
Mom stopped her work and raised her head with 4 in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. She bent her head and continued to sew the quilt. I was 5 if I had hurt her.

“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day. “Susan, don’t worry shout me,” he said gently. “I just like walking with your mom. I like this kind of life.” Looking into his eyes, I 12 what they meant.
