Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the   1   tuition （学费） for my brother and me. They don’t   2   in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. My father has a bad temper; it’s easy for him to lose his temper.

One day, my mother was sewing a quilt （缝被子）. I   3   sat down beside her and looked at her.

“Is there any love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very   4   voice.

My mother stopped her work and raised her head with   5   in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt.   6   at last I heard my mother say the following words:

“Susan,” she said   7  . “Look at this thread. Sometimes it appears, but most of time it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable （耐用的）. If life is a quilt, then love should be a   8  . It can   9   be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there. Love is   10  .”

I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next  11  . At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. After they were   12  , every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk   13   on the country road. My father had never been so   14  . Along the country road, there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees. The sun softly shone through the leaves. All of these   15   the most beautiful picture in the world. The doctor had said my father would   16   in two months. But after two months he still couldn’t walk alone. We were all worried.

“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.

“Susan,” he said kindly. “To tell you the truth, I just like   17   with your mom. I like this kind of life.”   18   his eyes, I knew he loved my mother deeply.

Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this   19  , I understand that love is just a   20   in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.
