The day we have


It happened about three years ago when I was still in senior high. That year, my parents decided to go to China for work, and my little brother would go with them. My parents asked me if I want to transfer to other schools in China. That really confused me. I didn't want to leave my family who I love so much, but I didn't want to leave Taiwan, my friends, either. Besides, I had so many plans to work on which I dreamed of. After two days, I made up my mind to stay in Taiwan for my last year in school to finish my class. For the oncoming separation, my family chose Lamey island as the last trip for that year. We spent all day long with each other, jumping, screaming, laughing, watching sunset,etc. That was my first time to see my parents acting like kids. They told me even though we won't be together physically, I will always be in their minds. I was really moved to hear that, because I never thought that my parents would say something so touching. My family left to China a week later. I just looked at the pictures that we took at the island. I know we will never forget the happiness we have, we still live in the same world, watching the same sky.
