On my way home I knocked into a stranger as he passed by. “Oh. I'm terribly sorry,” I said. “That’s all right. Please excuse me too. I wasn't even
15 you. I wish I didn’t hurt you,” said the man.
We were very
16 . We said good-bye and went on our way.

23 you anyway,” she said.
I suddenly realized what a clever way it is to explain the word
24 like this: Father And Mother, I Love You!
