Mr. Dawson is an old man with bad temper (脾气). And everyone in town knew it. Kids were afraid to go into his yard to pick apples.

One day, 12-year-old Janet and her friend Amy had to walk past Mr. Dawson's house. When Janet saw him outside, she suggested they crossed the street to the other side. But Amy said they didn't need to.

When Mr. Dawson saw Amy, he smiled and said: "Hello, Amy! I see you have a new friend with you today." Amy smiled back and told him that Janet would stay with her that night. Mr. Dawson looked friendly and gave them each a fresh apple. The girls were glad to get them.

Later, Janet asked Amy: "Everyone says he is the most unwelcome person in town. Why was he kind to us?" Amy explained that when she first walked past his house, she was also afraid of him. But she preteneded there was an invisible (看不见的) smile on his face and then started talking to him.

"An invisible smile?" Janet was puzzled "Yes," answered Amy, "My grandma told me to think so. She says smiles can run around. If we keep smiling at someone, sooner or later he will really smile back."

Try to remember this, and you will find that most people can't refuse your smile.

Dear daddy! How’s everything going? It’s been so many days since you went to Wuhan. Do you still remember the day before you left? I remember I saw the luggage (行李) in your bedroom. I asked you, “Are you going to leave on business?” You smiled and put your hand on my head, saying, “I’m just tidying up some clothes.”

Later that night, I learned that you and mom had asked to be sent to Wuhan and were waiting for a phone call. (A) At that moment, I hoped neither of you would get the call. However, your phone still rang. I almost cried out in fear as if I were going to Wuhan myself.

The next morning, I got up early. During breakfast, (B) you smiled and asked me if I would miss you. I pretended (假装) it was no big deal and said, “I can text you whenever I miss you.”

When you were leaving, I waved (挥手) to you until I couldn’t see you anymore. Tears flowed down my face. I later realized it was Lantern Festival. I wrote down “Bon voyage” and “Waiting for you to come back” in my notebook. I knew the people of Wuhan needed you more than I did. At night, mom sent me some photos of you and the rest of the medical team. I immediately found you in the photos. I pointed you out and yelled, “Hey, this is my daddy!” I was so proud of you!

After you left, I paid more attention to the battle against the novel coronavirus. (C)I wondered whether you would take good care of yourself. Daddy, remember to exercise and get enough rest.

We all miss you every day. I love you, my superhero, forever and ever.
