Dear daddy，

How's everything（1） ？ It's been so many days since you went to Wuhan． Do you still （2） the day before you left？ I remember I saw the luggage （行李） in your bedroom． I asked you，"Are you going to leave（3） business？" You smiled and put your hand on my head， saying． "I'm just tidying up some clothes．"
Later that night， I learned that you and mom had asked to（4） to Wuhan and were waiting for a phone call． At that moment， I hoped（5） of you would get the call．（6） ， your phone still rang． I almost cried out，as if I were going to Wuhan myself．
The next morning， I got（7） early． During breakfast， you smiled and asked me if I（8） miss you． I pretended （假装） it was no big（9） and said，" I can send you a message whenever I miss you．"
When you were leaving， I waved （挥手） to you（10） I couldn't see you anymore． Tears flowed down my face． I later realized it was Lantern Festival． I wrote down "Waiting for you to come back" in my notebook． I knew the people of Wuhan needed you （11） than I did．
At night， mom sent me some photos of you and the rest of the medical team． I found you in the photos（12） I pointed you out and shouted， "Hey， this is my daddy!" I was so proud of you!
After you left， I paid more attention（13） the battle （战役） against the new coronavirus（冠状病毒）．I wondered whether you would take good care of（14） Daddy， remember to exercise and get（15） rest．
We all miss you every day.1 love you， my superhero， forever and ever．
