Everyone in the neighborhood was bust. Ben’s dad was putting pieces of wood over the windows while his mom was making sure the flashlights and radio were 37 . She also put some candles and matches on the table.

Ben couldn’t sleep at first. He finally fell asleep when the wind was39 down at around 3:00 a.m. When he woke up, the sun was rising. He went outside with his family and found the neighborhood in a mess. Fallen trees, broken windows and rubbish were everywhere.

It was back when I was 23 years old, I was about to graduate and began to find a job. My father talked to me about what kind of job I should look for. He wanted me to work for a big company and 41 me to take his advice. But I really hoped to be a teacher. We quarreled, even shouted and didn’t talk to each other. Even worse, I found it more and more42 for us to say sorry as time went by.
A week later, I decided to break the 43 and make the first move. So I dialed my father’s number, gathered all my strength and let out the words in a low voice, “Dad….i am sorry. I shouldn’t44 with you that day!”
There was a 45 at the other end. After a while, he replied also in a low voice, “Well, that’s all right, honey.”
I was unexpectedly 46 and raised my voice a little, “Dad, I understand why you don’t want me to be a teacher, but to be a teacher is my dr eam job. I hope you can understand me.”
From the other end of the line comes my father’s response, “Sorry, honey. I shouldn’t have forced you to accept my idea. You have your own dream. I should 47 you.”
On hearing this, I was so moved that tears were rolling down my checks. I realized that this special moment had taken our father-and-daughter relationship to a new level.
A few weeks later, I was told by my mom that my father had suffered heart attacks for half a year. He would get an operation. Fortunately, my father survived the surgery and narrowly escaped death.
Many times I feel lucky that I took the first step to talk to my father and make a/an 48 . I can’t imagine how I can live the cost of my life if my father didn’t survive the surgery.

I was 9 years old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1994, but I can remember my mother’s words as if it were yesterday, “Kernel, I don’t want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very careful when y ou are around him.”
AIDS wasn’t something we talked about in my country when I was growing up．From then on, I knew that this would be a family secret．My parents were not together anymore, and my dad lived alone．For a while, he could take care of himself．But when I was 12, his condition worsened．My father’s other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look after him.
We couldn’t afford all the necessary medicine for him, because Dad was unable to work．I had no money for school supplies and often couldn’t even buy food for
dinner．I would sit in class feeling completely lost. The teacher’s words muffled
as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage.
I did not share my burden with anyone. I had seen how people reacted to
AIDS. Kids laughed at classmates who had parents with the disease. And even
adults could be cruel. When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses
would leave his food on the bedside table even though he was too weak to feed himself.
I had known that he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret, I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days．Sad and hopeless, I called a woman at the nonprofit National AIDS Support. That day, she kept me on the phone for hours. I was so lucky to find someone who cared. She saved my life.
I was 15 when my father died．He took his secret away with him. Having never spoken about AIDS to anyone, even me, he didn’t want to call attention to AIDS. I do.
