    Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are busy trying to   36   in order to pay the high school cost for my brother and me. They don’t act in the   37   ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too   38   for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Lovers’ Day is even more out of   39  .

    One day, Mom was sewing a quilt (缝被子). I sat   40   beside her. “Mom, I have a question. Is there   41   between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.

Mom stopped her work and raised her head with   42   in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. She    43   her head and continued to sew the quilt.

    I was very worried because I thought I had   44   her. I was very regretful and I didn’t know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words:

    “Susan,” she said   45  , “Look at this thread. Sometimes it   46  , but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and long-lasting. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can    47     be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there. Love is   48  .”

    I listened carefully but I couldn’t   49   her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned home, they both looked   50  . It seemed both of them had had a serious illness. After they were back, every day in the morning and sunset, my mother helped my father walk   51   on the country road.

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

    “Susan ,” he said kindly. “To tell you the truth, I just like   52   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 understand that love is just    55   in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.
