Soon Tommy’s parents who had recently separated (分居) would arrive for a meeting on his failing schoolwork and 　36 behavior. Neither parent knew that I had called up 　37 .

Tommy an only child had 　38 been happy cooperative and an excellent student. How could I make his father and mother 　39 that his recent failing grades 　40 a brokenhearted child’s reaction to his respected parents’ separation and possible 　41 ?

Tommy’s mother came in and 　42 one of the chairs I had placed near my desk. Then the father 　43 and was surprised to see his wife. They pointedly ignored each other.

As I gave a detailed 　44 of Tommy’s behavior and schoolwork I prayed for the 　45 words to bring these two together to help them see what they were doing to their son. 　46 somehow the words wouldn’t come.

I found a crumpled (弄皱的) tear-stained 　47 in the back of Tommy’s desk. Writing covered both sides a single 　48 scribbled (乱写) over and over.

Silently I smoothed it out and gave it to Tommy’s mother. She read it and then without a word 　49 it to her husband. He frowned. Then his face softened. He studied the scribbled words for 　50 seemed a future life.

At last he folded the paper carefully and 　51 his wife’s hand. She wiped the tears from her 　52 and smiled up at him. I also couldn’t keep back tears but 　53 seemed to notice.

In this way I used the words to 　54 that family. On the sheet of yellow copy paper 　55 with the painful outpouring of a small boy’s troubled heart it said “Dear Mother; Dear Daddy; I love you. I love you. I love you.”
