"Why?" he asked, __3__.

He kept __5__, seeming to be in deep thought, with a lighted cigarette in his hands. Finally he asked, "What can I do to change your __6__?"

He answered, "I will give you my answer tomorrow."
I __8__ the next morning, finding a piece of paper on the dining table, which read: "My dear, I would not pick that flower for you, but please allow me to __9__."

Thus, my dear, __17__ I am sure that there is someone who loves you more than I do, I could not pick that flower yet, and die."
My tears fell on the __18__ and I continued reading: "Now that you have finished reading my answer, if you are __19__, please open the front door for I am standing outside __20__ your favorite bread and fresh milk."
