Question

    While waiting to pick up a friend at the airport, I had one of those life-changing experiences - the kind that sneaks up on you ____.

I noticed a man with two bags stopped right next to me to ____ his family. First he motioned to his younger son (maybe six years old), knelt down and gave him a long and intimate hug. As they ____ enough to look in each other’s face, the father said, “So good to see you son. I missed you much!” Smiling, the son replied softly, “Me, too, Dad.” Then the man stood up, gazed in the eyes of his older son(maybe nine or ten), “You’re already quite a young man. I love you very much.” They too gave each other an affectionate hug.

Meanwhile, a baby girl (perhaps one year old) was excited in her mother’s arms, never taking her eyes ____ the wonderful sight of her ____ father. The man gently took the child from her mother, kissed her face and held her close to his chest while ____ her from side to side. After moments, he handed the girl to his older son and declared, “I’ve ____ the best for last!” and proceeded to give his wife the longest and most passionate kiss.

Then they stared at each other’s eyes ____. For an instant they ____ me of newlyweds (新婚), but I knew ____ the age of their kids that they could not possibly be. I puzzled about it for a moment and then realized how totally ____ I was in the wonderfully display of unconditional love. I suddenly felt ____, as if I were invading something ____, but was amazed to hear my own voice nervously asked, “Wow! How long have you been married?”

“Been together fourteen years total, married twelve of those.” he replied, staring at her.

“Then, how long have you been away?” I asked. The man finally turned to me, saying, “Two whole days!”

I was ____. By their greeting, I had assumed he’d been gone for ____ a few weeks - if not months. I know my expression ____ me. To ease the ____, I said, “I hope my marriage is still that passionate after twelve years.” He suddenly stopped smiling, looking me straight in the eye and said something that left me another person.

“Don’t hope, friend…decide!”, and then his eyes ____ smile again.

I was still watching that exceptional man and his family walk out of ____ when my friend came up to me and asked, “What are you looking at?”

Without hesitation, and with a sense of ____, I replied, “My future!”
