Early one morning, I witnessed romance at one the least-expected places in the world—a room in a rest home. At the time, my father  36  a room with three other gentlemen.
Before my daddy lived in the rest home, an elderly  37  was sent there. Since there wasn’t a double room  38  , they were forced to separate the couple. The gentleman, Mr.West, was  39  in the bed beside Daddy. His wife, Mrs.West, shared a room with several other ladies down the hall.
When I went to see Daddy that morning, I  40  Mr.West. Three employees were working with him. He hadn’t eaten a bite of food  41  he was sent several days earlier. I could  42  by the expression on the nurses’ faces that they were worried about him. Mr.West  43  to open his mouth for any of them.
“Go and get Mrs.West, ” the nurse told her helper. “Maybe Mr.West will eat  44  her. ”
In a few minutes a kind-looking lady was  45  into the room. Her smile was contagious（传染的）and Mr.West smiled  46  . I felt as though I was intruding（侵入）on a  47  moment, but I couldn’t take my eyes off the couple. The love between them was obvious, as Mrs.West patted Mr.West’s hand.
With a soft voice, Mrs.West tried to 48  Mr.West to eat. To everyone’s surprise, Mr.West  49  his mouth and began to enjoy the  50  and his wife’s company. While the nurses fed him, he stared at his sweetheart with a smile on his face. Mrs.West began singing a song for him. The  51  on his once solemn（严肃的）face became even brighter.
Tears  52  my eyes. The nurse then  53  the curtain around the couple to give them some quality time alone. I discovered that  54  doesn’t only exist when we’re young and in love. Romance  55  a lifetime and grows stronger with age.
