Three Sweet Kisses
The sky was bright, and sunlight streamed into the room, shining on the bed and onto Yaya’s face. Yaya opened her eyes. Wow! The sun was shining brightly—it was going to be a beautiful day.
“Good morning!”
Who was greeting her? Yaya looked out the window, but there was no one speaking to her!
“I’m right here.”
Yaya finally noticed her doll, Beibei, sitting beside her pillow.
Beibei used to stand in the cabinet. How did she end up beside Yaya’s pillow today?
“Yaya, I want to thank you,” said Beibei.
Yaya blinked, not understanding why Beibei wanted to thank her.
“Did you forget?” Beibei said, “It was on this day last year that you brought me home. That day, the autumn rain was drizzling down, and I was very cold. You were afraid I’d freeze, so you held me all the way home.”
Yaya seemed to remember now. That day, she had a cold, and on the way home from the hospital, her mother had bought her this doll. Since then, Yaya had cared for Beibei like an older sister.
Beibei leaned close to her ear and whispered, “I want to give you a sweet kiss.” Saying that, Beibei kissed Yaya on the cheek.
At that moment, Yaya’s mother came in. Yaya said, “Good morning, Mom!” Then she put her mouth close to her mother’s ear and whispered, “Mom, today I want to give you two sweet kisses.”
Her mother blinked, puzzled.
“Mom, did you forget? That day when I had a cold, you carried me to the hospital, and on the way home, you bought me this doll.” She held up the doll, Beibei, to show her mother, who then remembered.
“Mom, Beibei just gave me one kiss, so I want to give you two kisses.” Saying this, Yaya kissed her mother on her left cheek and then on her right.
Her mother touched her own cheeks and smiled, dimples forming, filled with happiness.
