For a moment, the world 51 , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn"t understand what he was saying. All I was 52 of was the stubble（短须）on his chin as his face pressed 53 mine. What I had said to Daniel was 54 . It was nothing. And yet, it was 55 .
