As I look back on it now, I realize it was kind of silly of me to be so worried when Daddy was really just late. I waited every night for Daddy whom I followed around everywhere.
That day, I stood at my
place by the door, waiting for his return from work.
After standing there for a while, I began to
where Daddy was. I ran into the kitchen and asked Mummy
,“When is Daddy coming? ”
“ Soon, honey, ”Mummy replied distractedly (心不在焉的) because she was following a difficult recipe(cookbook) for dinner.
I ran back to the door for I knew that Daddy was coming and that I wasn’t standing there for nothing, I began to read the words from my favorite books.
Tired of that, I went back to the kitchen to ask Mummy again but
I could open my mouth, she handed me a My little Pony coloring book. She said: “I’m busy, Daniel. Go and
a pretty picture and I’ll hang it on the fridge. ”
I went back to the door, put my book and crayons (蜡笔) down, then went to get my mini chair to sit in. After a while, the
became a pink-and-purple artistic wonder.
Soon I
with relief (放心) as I heard the sound of the garage door
and Daddy’s car driving in. I heard him turn off the engine and open and close his car door. The next thing I knew was that the door opened and there stood Daddy. I stood up and
my arms . I hugged him tightly and whispered, “I love you”.
As I sit at the computer finishing this story, I know Daddy will be home soon. I still
when he’s late. I still go to greet him when he arrives. And I still tell him I love him.
