I was walking down the road one day when my cell phone rang. A strange 31 on the other end spoke to me, “Dad, please come back soon. I miss you so much!” I judged that it was a 32_ number. A little while later, the call came once again, so I rudely 33 , “You’ve dialed the wrong number!” and then 34 .

　 During the following days, I got the same 35 now and then. But I didn’t care much about it.

　 Then one day she constantly called me 36 I didn't answer. Finally I answered the phone and heard a weak voice, “Dad, please come back. I miss you so much! Dad, I’m 37 so much pain! Mom said you were too busy to take 38 of me. But, dad, please 39 me again, OK?” The innocent(天真) 40 was difficult to refuse. I made a 41 kiss on the phone and heard the weak voice say, “Thank you．．．Dad, I am so…happy, so…happy…”

　 Shortly after this, I became 42 about who had been on the other end of my phone. So I called back, and a woman answered, “Sorry, sir. I am really sorry to have 43 you. My daughter has suffered from bone cancer 44 she was born. And her father… died in an 45 a short while ago. I dare not tell her this sad 46 . Poor baby．When she couldn’t bear (忍受) the painful chemotherapy (化疗), she would cry for her dad, who had always 47 her. I really couldn't bear it, so I gave her my phone number…”

“How is your daughter now?” I couldn't 48 to ask.

“She has 49 . You must have kissed her on the phone, because she went with a smile, tightly holding the cell phone…”

50 filled my eyes and I was so sad to hear that.

After my husband died suddenly from a heart attack，my world crashed around me. My six children were all under 10，and I was burdened with the responsibilities of earning a living，and caring for the children. I was fortunate to find a wonderful housekeeper to care for the children during the week，but from Friday nights to Monday mornings，the children and I were alone.
One Friday evening I came home from work to find a big pretty German Shepherd（牧羊犬）on our doorstep. This dog seemed to intend to enter the house. The children liked “German” immediately and begged me to let him in. I agreed to let him sleep in the basement. That night I slept peacefully for the first time in many weeks.
The following morning we made phone calls and checked lost-and-found ads for German’s owner，but with no results.
On Sunday I had planned to take the children on a picnic. Since I thought it best to leave German behind in case his owner came by，we drove off without him. When we stopped to get gas，we were amazed to see German racing to the gas station after us. No way was he going to be left behind.
Monday morning I let him out for a run. He didn’t come back and we were all disappointed. We were convinced that we would never see him again. We were wrong. The next Friday evening，German was back on our doorstep. Again he stayed until Monday morning，when our housekeeper arrived.
This pattern repeated itself every weekend for almost 10 months. We grew more and more fond of German. We took comfort in his strong，warm presence，and we felt safe with him near us. As German became part of the family，he considered it his duty to check every bedroom to be sure each child was cozy in bed.
Each week，between German’s visits，I grew a little stronger，a little braver and more able to handle; every weekend we were no longer alone and enjoyed his company. Then one Monday morning we patted him on the head and let him out for what turned out to be the last time. We never saw German again.
