Love

Becks: Do you love me?
Miffy: YES OF COURSE! Can't you tell from my regular daily hugs?
Becks: Do you love Travis?
Miffy: YES!
Becks: Do you love Gong gong?
Miffy: Yes, definitely too.
Becks: But I haven't seen you hug him before.
Miffy: .........
Miffy (a few seconds later): Love is expressed in different ways. There are also different kinds of love.

Becks' beloved Gong gong is my dad. How do I tell her that sometimes I wish love can be expressed in the same way, the most simple way but it would probably need the life outta me to do it?

Being Asian. Sigh.
