One day, I was so angry with my parents that I left home, saying I would never return. I was upset because my parents refused to buy me a bike. But in anger, I didn't even realize that I had taken both my father's shoes and his wallet. As I made my way to the bus station, I felt some pain in my foot. I noticed that the shoe had a hole in it.
There were no buses around. Not knowing what to do,I looked at my dad's wallet. To my surprise, there wasn't any money inside. I also found a note from his manager. He asked him to wear nice-looking shoes to the office.
I remembered my mother asking him to buy a pair of new shoes, but he said that his current pair of shoes should last another SIX months at least.
I started to walk home. I then realized that when I left, my dad's motorbike was not there. I started feeling weak in my legs and wanted to cry. I ran home as fast as I could. When I got home, my dad was there waiting for me. I couldn't help crying. I hugged him tightly and said, "I'm sorry, Dad. I don't need a bike. "
That's when I realized just how much pain and hardship our parents go through sometimes and how great their love for us is. Everyone should do a better job of remembering these from time to time.
