Sometimes, I wonder whether there is any love between my parents. Every day they are busy trying to_1_ money. They don’t act romantic the way couples do in books and on TV. They never say, “I love you.” It’s not their _2__ .

One day, my mother was sewing a quilt (缝被子). I sat down beside her. “Mom, I have a question to ask you,” I said after a while.

“What?” she asked, still working.

“Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her __3__ a very low voice.

She stopped her work and _4__ her head. Then she bowed her head and went on sewing.

I thought I had hurt her. At last I heard my mother say: “Susan, look at this thread (线). Sometimes it _5_ , but most of the time it disappears in the quilt. It makes the quilt __6__ . If life is a quilt, then love should be a_7_ . It can hardly be seen anywhere, but it’s really there.”

I listened carefully but I didn’t understand her __8_ the next spring. My father suddenly got sick. My mother had to stay with him in the _9__ for a month.

After they got back, she helped my father walk slowly down the road every day. My father had never been so weak.

“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.

“Susan, don’t worry about me,” he said gently. “I just like _10__ with your mom.“

Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. Now, I know that love is the thread that holds a family together.
