One day, I was reading a newspaper when my wife called, “Will you 16 here and make your baby daughter eat her
food?”
I threw the 17 away and rushed to my 8-year-old
daughter, Sinduja. In front of her was a bowl full of rice. She said to me,
“Dad, 18 I eat all the rice, will you
give me whatever I ask for?” “Certainly.” I promised.
“Dad, I want to have my hair 19 from my head this Sunday!” she said. I
felt a little surprised. “Sinduja, why don’t you ask for something else? We
will be 20 when seeing you with a clean-shaven(剃光的) head.”
“Dad, you have promised to give me 21 I ask for,” Sinduja cried. “Now, you are
breaking your promise!”
On Monday morning, I dropped her at the 22 . I watched my hairless
Sinduja walking towards her classroom. Just then, a boy with a 23 head got down from the car, and shouted,
“Sinduja, please 24 for me!”
“Sir, you daughter is 25 indeed!” A lady got out of the 26 , and continued, “That boy who
is walking along your daughter is my son, Harish. He is 27 from leukemia(白血病). He lost all his hair because of the side effects of the
chemotherapy(化疗). He was afraid that his classmates would laugh at him, so he 28 to come back to school. Sinduja visited
him last week. I 29 imagined she would give up her
lovely hair for my son!”
I stood there, unable to move or speak. “Thank you, my little angel!
You are teaching me how selfless real love is !” I thought.
The 30 people on this planet are those who live
for the ones they love!
