  One night I was sitting in my kitchen half-listening as my 15-year-old brother Tommy antagonized(招惹)my 12-year-old brother Kevin.I didn’t pay attention when Kevin   1   up the stairs with the hurt on his face.

  About 20 minutes later, I heard Kevin crying inside the   2  .I knocked on the door and asked, “Hey, Kev, do you want a talk?” No response.So, I grabbed some index(索引)cards and a pencil and wrote, “If you don’t want to   3  , we can write notes to each other.”

  An hour later I was still   4   on the floor outside the bathroom with two piles of index cards in front of me.One was   5   and one was cards from Kevin on which he had translated all his unpleasant feelings into words.  6   I read one Kevin’s notes, tears came to my eyes.It said,“  7   in this family cares about me.I’m not the youngest, and I’m not the oldest, and I’m not   8  .Tommy thinks I can do nothing and Dad   9   he had the other Kevin as a(n)  10   because he’s better at basketball.And you’re never around to even   1   me.”

  It was   12   what he had said about me.I wrote back “I really do love you and I’m   13   I don’t always show it.I am here for you and you are   14   in this family.”

  There was no   15   for a while, but then I heard a   16   sound coming from inside the bathroom.Kevin, who had   17   cards wrote on a torn-up paper cup, “Thanks.”

  Since then, I try my best to never   18   half-notice my family members anymore.Kevin and I have a closer   19   now, and sometimes when one of us notices that the other is   20  , we’ll smile and say “Write it on a paper cup.”

There was a time when I thought my dad didn’t know a thing about being a good father.

Some parents bought their kids cars when they got their driver’s licenses. Not my dad ---- he said that I’d have to get a job and buy my own.

So that is what I did. I got a job at a very nice restaurant and   39  every penny I could and   40  I had enough to buy my car, I did! The day I brought that car home, my dad was the first one I wanted to   41  to. “Look, dad, a car of my own. If you ever want a ride, I’ll only   42 you five dollars.” I offered with a smile.

“I see,” was all he said.

One day, there was something wrong with my father’s truck. So he needed a   43  to work. The sun wasn’t even up when we left the house ,   44  it was already getting warm out.

In that instant, it  49  to me that he actually got down on his hands and knees to sweat over hot concrete to make a living for his family. And he did this day in and day out,   50  hot it got. Never, not once, had I hear him   51  about it. To him we were “worth” it. And never once did he “charge” us for it.

When he closed the trunk, his tools set off to the side, he walked over to my window to   52  me five dollars. I rolled down the window and said “Good-bye, dad. Keep your five dollars. It’s my   53 . Don’t work too hard. I love you.”

His   54  met mine, then glanced away in the direction of his waiting tools, he   55  his throat and said, “Oh, and… me, too.”
