Question

"BANG!" the door caused a reverberation(回聲). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and I on the other side.

We were both in great anger. "Never set foot in this house again!" shouted father. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the apartment and ran along the street.

The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feeling. I walked aimlessly(漫無目的).

A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.

But now … I don't know whether it is because I have grown up or because Dad is getting old. We are different in our ways of thinking. He always puts his opinions and rules of behavior on me.

We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.

I walked on the streets, without an aim in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. There were fewer and fewer people on the streets. I walked on until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached where I lived, I saw all the lights were off except father's. I thought to myself, "Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?"

Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn't know how to express himself. After an argument, he never showed any moments of regret. However, he always has the habit of moving quietly and putting my arms underneath the quilt in my sleep.

This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.

The light was still on. "Am I wrong?" I whispered, maybe ... With the key in my hand, I was very nervous. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, I saw my father making my bed, my tears running down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us disappeared completely. Love — it's second to none.
