I was walking down the road one day when my cell phone rang.   36   voice on the other end spoke to me, “Dad, please come back soon. I miss you so much!” I thought that it was a wrong number. A short while later, the call came once again, so I   37   rudely, “You’ve dialed the wrong number!” and then hung up.

During the    38    days, I often got the    39   call. But I didn’t care much about it.

    Then one day she kept calling me,    40    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 in so much    41   ! Mom said you were too busy to take care of me. But, dad, please    42    me again, OK?” It was     43    to refuse the innocent(天真的, 无邪的) ask. I made a    44    kiss on the phone and heard the weak voice say, “Thank you…Dad, I am so…happy, so…happy…”

    Shortly after this, I became curious(好奇）about    45    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    46    you. My daughter has had bone cancer since she was born. And her father…died in a car    47    two weeks ago. I didn’t want to tell her the news. Poor baby. When she couldn’t    48    the painful chemotherapy(化疗), she would cry for her dad because her dad always    49    her. I really don’t know what to do, so I gave her a random(随意的) phone number…”

    “How is your daughter now?” I couldn’t wait to ask.

“She has died. You   50    have kissed her on the phone, because she died with a smile, tightly holding the cell phone…”   Tears full of my eyes….

"Do you like my dress?" she asked a stranger. "My mum made it just for me," she said with tears in her eyes.

"Well, I think it's very pretty, so tell me, little girl, why are you crying?"

The little girl answered in a low voice, "After mum made me this dress, she went away. My dad says that she's up in heaven (天堂) now with Grandfather."

Finally the woman realized why she was crying. She felt very sorry for the little girl and gently held the child in her arms.

Then suddenly the little girl did something a bit strange. She stopped crying, walked back from the woman and began to sing. She sang softly. It was the sweetest sound the woman had ever heard, almost like the song of a very small bird.

After the child stopped singing, she said to the lady, "My mum often sang that song to me before she went away, and she asked me to sing it whenever I started crying and it would make me stop."

"See," she said loudly, "it did, and now my eyes are dry!"

Just before the lady wanted to go, the girl showed her a spot (印迹) on her dress, and said, "Right here is where my mum kissed (吻) my dress, and here," pointing to another spot, "and here is another kiss, and here, and here. Mum said that she put all those kisses on my dress so that I would forget my sadness."

Then the lady realized that she wasn't just looking at a dress, no, she was looking at a mother. The mother knew that she was going away and would not be there to kiss away her daughter's hurts any longer.

So the mother gave all her love to her beautiful daughter and put it into this dress. Now her child was wearing it so proudly.

The lady no longer saw a little girl wearing a simple dress. She saw a child wrapped (包) in her mother's love.
