I was walking down the road one day when my cell phone rang. A child's voice on the other end spoke to me, “Dad, please come back soon. I miss you so much!” I thought that it was a wrong number. A short while later, the call came once again, so I 1 rudely, "You've dialed the wrong number!" and then hung up.
During the following days, I often got the 2 call. But I didn't care much about it.
Then one day she kept calling me, 3 I didn't answer. Finally I answered the phone and heard a weak voice, “Dad, please come back. I miss you so much! Dad, I'm in so much 4! Mom said you were too busy to take care of me. But, dad, please 5 me again, OK?” It was 6 to refuse the innocent(天真的, 无邪的) ask. I made a 7 kiss on the phone and heard the weak voice say, “Thank you…Dad, I am so……happy, so……happy.”
Shortly after this, I became curious(好奇）about 8 had been on the other end of my phone. So I called back, and a woman answered,“Sorry, sir. I am really sorry to have troubled you.

When she couldn't stand the painful chemotherapy(化疗), she would cry for her dad because her dad always 9her. I really don't know what to do, so I gave her a random(随意的) phone number.”
“How is your daughter now?” I couldn't wait to ask.
“She has died. You 10 have kissed her on the phone, because she died with a smile, tightly holding the cell phone.” Tears full of my eyes.
