After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father   41  on the country road．

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

“Susan, don’t  42  me.” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.”  43  his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.

Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and  44 . But from this experience, I understand that love is just  45  in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.
