I know, he had loved me and I had loved him, too.

He snitched my favorite Japanese butter cake. It was 2003 Chinese New Year holidays, I was spending just two days at my home. He was like waiting for my scolding and like being ready for run to be chased. I can never forget his roguish look at that time. He must not have had such eating desire, I mean, he was too weak. He acted like he could be still energetic enough to attract me. Actually he could not eat much and walk much then, but stood up with back legs as hanging on the table, then tried for fun as glancing up at me often. ...I did not run with him, but shared my favarite butter cake with him.

Just before he went too far away, he showed me his charm like as the way he had always given me. I had spent with him for 17 years with love. Such love will never be given to me except from him.
