Upon meeting, we took an instant liking 小题4: each other. Every Saturday I would visit Kumkum and play with her. She would love to sit on my lap. It was one such moment that the child felt like 小题5: (kiss) me... and I suddenly remembered that she was suffering from tuberculosis which is a communicable(传染性的）disease. I tried to stop her 小题6: she really wanted to show her affection for me, so I overcame my fear and let her place the 小题7: gentle and sweet kiss on my cheek that I ever had.
Although I overcame my fear at that moment, I 小题8: (not forgive) myself ever since for refusing her 小题9: (initial). Although the child kissed me, I think she sensed my hesitation 小题10: she has never kissed me again. I will never forget that the most beautiful thing in this world is a child’s kiss... so full of love and innocence.
