Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, which I knew deeply from my grandson. As a result of a rare disease, I lost most of my hair. Being hairless felt strange, I tried to cover my head. I experimented with each of my hats to find a proper covering. Unfortunately, they were all either too warm or too tight. It was really painful.

During the day, I usually put on a scarf at home. However, wore is away from the house. The wig certainly improved my appearance, but it wasn’t comfortable enough to wear for long periods of time.

When my grandchildren visited me some months later, I wore my wig all the time. I put it on when I got up in the morning and didn’t take it off until bedtime. Since the piece looked similar to my natural hair, the kids weren’t aware of the difference.

All went well until my four-year-old granddaughter unexpectedly walked into my bedroom one morning. I was taking a shower and had temporarily placed my wig on top of a lampshade to keep it from flattening. My granddaughter saw the wig hanging over the lampshade and cried in terror (恐惧). She tore out of the room, sounding the alarm that something terrible had happened to her grandma. She grabbed her brother and dragged him back into my room to investigate.

Wondering what was happening outside, I walked out of the bathroom, with a bathrobe but nothing on my head. I couldn’t understand why my granddaughter was looking at me as if I were a monster (怪兽) from outer space.

She continued to stare at me in panic, as if wondering why this hairless creature was wearing her grandmother’s clothes. Where had her grandmother gone, and who was this strange person with the hairless head?

My grandson, who was seven and had heard about my disease, understood a few things about wigs. He tried to calm his sister, but she was still too upset to recognize me.

Darkness had already blanketed the city as Mr. Chen, an engineer, arrived home exhausted from his demanding job. He couldn’t help but notice the absence of his son Lei, who was still out for his evening study sessions. The intense pressure of Lei’s senior high school studies and Mr. Chen’s busy work schedule had gradually eaten away at their precious time together, turning their once-frequent badminton games into mere memories of the past.

On those better weekends, Mr. Chen and Lei would eagerly head to the nearby court, rackets in hand, bathing in the joy of the game and each other’s company. But as life got busier, their heartfelt conversations were reduced to hurried greetings and silent nods.

That particular evening, Mrs. Chen observed Mr. Chen’s unusual early return. With a warm smile, she handed him a steaming cup of tea, gently bringing up a topic close to her heart. “I’ve noticed you and Lei haven’t played badminton in a while. I miss the sound of your laughter and chatter,” she expressed softly, her voice filled with nostalgia.

Mr. Chen’s eyes momentarily lost their tiredness as he thought of the cheerful times spent on the badminton court with Lei. Those moments weren’t just about the sport; they were about the bond they shared, a bond that now seemed to be slipping away. “You’re absolutely right,” he agreed. “We need to bring those moments back and reconnect with Lei.”

Determined, Mr. Chen crafted a plan to carve out two hours per weekend for family bonding, starting with reestablishing their weekly badminton games. Mr. Chen also decided to have more open conversations with Lei, discussing ways to handle academic pressures and the importance of maintaining a health y balance in life. As he awaited Lei’s return that night, Mr. Chen pictured their upcoming game, not just as a physical activity, but as a stepping stone to rebuild their relationship, a chance to laugh, talk, and simply be together.

Rising to reach for the book on the desk in the living room, Gudrun fell over her little brother, who had crawled out from underneath her chair.   “Arnar!   Why do you always have to be right under me?”

The five-year-old giggled. “I was hiding,” he said,   “and you found me.”

“I’m not playing,”   Gudrun   scolded.   “I’m knitting. And it’s time for you to go to bed.”   Her parents had gone out for the evening, leaving Gudrun in charge.

“Let me hide once more,”Arnar begged. “Then I’ll go to sleep, I promise.”

Gudrun couldn’t help smiling.   “Oh, all right.”   She turned back to her knitting.   “I’ll look for you when   I’ve finished this row.”

“Here’s a clue,”Arnar called as he skipped away.   “Look for me where I always am.”

But Gudrun was already absorbed in her work.

Gudrun wasn’t sure what had awakened her in the middle of the night. Was it the urgency in Mamma’s voice or the frightening and low rumble that rolled through her room? Gudrun found herself suddenly wide awake, drawn to the window by a strange and unfamiliar brilliance outside. “An eruption,”   Mamma said as she began to gather Gudrun’s clothes.   “Maybe Helga fell, maybe a new volcano. We must leave the island quickly.”

“Tonight? How?”   Gudrun asked, her heart pounding.   “Where will we go?”

“We’re lucky. The fishing boats will take us to the mainland.”   Mamma turned to face Gudrun.“Pabbi has already gone to the harbor. I’m going to help Margret.”   Their elderly. neighbor lived alone. Mamma proceeded, “can you dress Arnar and take him to the harbor by yourself?”

“Of course,”   she declared. Everyone would help tonight. Icelanders had always worked together to survive in a land ruled by volcanoes, glaciers, and ocean.

Gudrun dressed and ran to her brother’s room.“Arnar!”she cried, “Wake up!” Hearing no response, Gudru n hurried to the bed and pulled back her brother’s thick cover.
