I saw love today.

Having dinner as usual, we were all eating except dad.

I was having beef with rice.
Brother was having lemon chicken with rice.
Mom was having sweet and sour pork with rice.
Brother ordered additional bowl of mutton curry.

Dad: Ah there's curry, bread and curry will do.
Mom: No that definitely will not do. (Think she felt it was not nutritious enough)
Dad: - continues eating bread with curry -

I saw mom reserving 3 huge pieces of pork and about half a serving of rice.
I knew she liked "belachan", cause she asked my brother if he wanted his share and he said "yes".
But she reserved half the portion of "belachan" cause she knew dad loved it as much as she does.

-After dad finishes the curry and bread-

Mom: Here take it
Dad: - took it -

I could tell mom was not full from that dinner, but she gave dad the impression that she was too full so that he could finish her food.

I saw love.
What I saw today will not be the last.

Like they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.
But that scene, is worth a million.

Mom and dad, I truly love you both. And I love it when you two show love for one another.
