Sometimes I really wonder whether there is love between my parents．Every day they are very busy trying to make money．They don't act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV．They never say "I love you"．It's not their style．
One day, my mother was sewing(缝)a quilt(被子)．I silently sat down beside her．
"Mom, I have a question to ask you," I said after a while．
"What?" she replied, still working．
"Is there love between you and Dad?" I asked her in a very low voice．
My mother didn't answer right away．
I thought I had hurt her．At last I heard my mother say："Susan, look at this thread(线)．Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt．It makes the quilt strong．If life was a quilt, then love should be a thread．It can hardly be seen anywhere, but it's really there．Love is inside．"
The next spring．At that time, my father suddenly got very sick．My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month．
After they got back, my mother helped my father walk slowly down the road every day．My father had never been so gentle．
“Dad, how are you feeling now?”I asked him one day．
"Susan, don't worry about me．" he said．" I just like walking with your mom．
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses．Now, I know that love is a thread in the quilt of our life．Love is inside, making life strong and warm．
