My Forever Valentine 我永远的“情人”

Valentine’s Day was the time my father chose to show his love for the special people in his life. Over the years I fondly (天真的) thought  1   him as my “Valentine man”.

My first recollection of the  2   he could bring to Valentine’s Day came when I was six. That morning at the breakfast table I found a card and a gift-wrapped package at my chair. The card was  3   “Love, Dad” and the gift was a ring with a small piece of red glass to  4   my birthstone, a ruby (红宝石). There is  5   difference between red glass and rubies to a child of six, and I remember  6   that ring with pride that all the cards in the world  7   not surpass (超越).

  8   I grew older, the gifts gave  9   to heart-shaped boxes filled with my  10__   chocolate and always included a  11   card signed “Love, Dad”. In those years my thank-you became  12   of a perfunctory (敷衍) response. The cards seemed less  13  , and I took for granted that the Valentine would  14   be there. I had  15   my hopes and dreams in receiving cards and gifts from “significant others” and “Love Dad” just didn’t seem quite  16  .

His final card remains on my desk today. It’s a  17   of how special fathers can be and how important it has been to me over the years to know that I had a father who continued a  18_      of love with simple acts of understanding and an ability to express happiness over the people in his life.

Those things never  19  , nor does the memory of a man who never  20   being my Valentine.
