They were a loving couple and the boy was the_apple_of_their_eye. When the boy was around four years old, one day the father was very tired after work so he asked his wife to pick up their son. The mother, who was very busy in the kitchen, totally fot about it. Later the boy lost his way on the street. When the son was found missing, the mother hurried to look for him, but she didn39。t find him. The mother felt very sad and didn39。t know how to face her husband. When the father went to the police station after hearing that the son was missing, he looked at his wife and said just four words. What do you think the four words were? The husband just said “I love you, darling.” The son was missing. If she had picked him up earlier, this would not have happened. There is no point in blaming (責(zé)備 ) anyone. His wife had also lost her only child. What his wife needed at that moment was fort and understanding from her husband. That is what the husband gave his wife. Several weeks later, with the help of the police, the couple finally found their lost son. The family39。s relationship became stronger over that time.
