【原文】

Dad just didn’t know how to show love. It was Mom who held the family together. When I was 5, I stole a candy from Mr. Green’s Store. Dad made me take it back. But it was Mom who understood I was just a kid. At my birthday parties, Dad seemed to be busy blowing up balloons, setting the table and taking photos all the time. It was Mom who prepared the cake with the candles on it for me to blow out. When people looked at my family photos, they always asked, “There’re few photos of your dad. Why?” “He was always holding the camera,” I answered. In the photos, people could see a tall woman and a handsome boy. At seven, Mom and Dad taught me to ride a bicycle. I fell and Mom ran to pick me up, but he asked her to leave. I was so mad that I got right back on that bike and rode it myself. He just smiled then.

Dad just doesn’t know how to show love. Is it possible he showed it but I didn’t realize it?
