Question

My tears (眼淚) run down from my cheeks (面頰) when I talk to my parents on the phone. What are they doing when I call them? Dad works from seven o’clock in the morning to nine o’clock in the evening. My mum does all the housework, and she also has to work in the vineyard (葡萄). But I can’t do anything for them.

Every day she gets up around 4 o’clock in the morning. When I sometimes call her at 7:30 in the evening, she tells me that she is still in the vineyard and doesn’t have supper. I tell her I’ll study hard in the university. I also ask her to take care of herself and dad because I cannot live without them.

Mum says that the happiest time for dad and her is when my sister and I come back home. We play cards in the room, watch TV, or do anything we like, with dad and mum making delicious food in the kitchen. It is also the happiest time for me.

Love, sometimes, doesn’t need many words. Love your parents like they love you. Give them a call, and tell them you miss them.
