Someone isn't here and you miss them: how do you say it in Chinese? It's easy: "我想你." You can also say: "我想你了."
Cao Yun is five. This week her mum has gone to Beijing for work, so she isn't home.
On Monday evening, Cao Yun phoned her mum: "Mum, I miss you!"
Mum was very happy: "Mummy misses you too."
On Tuesday evening, Cao Yun said: "Mum, I really miss you!"
On Wednesday evening, Cao Yun said: "Mum, I miss you so, so much!"
On Thursday evening, Cao Yun asked: "Mum, when are you coming back?"
Mum said: "Go and open the door and see."
She opened the door. Mum was right outside!
At bedtime, Mum asked: "Do you still miss me?"
Cao Yun said: "Miss you?" "You're home!"
Mum laughed: "All right, then Mummy will go back to Beijing for work tomorrow."
Cao Yun said: "No, no!" "Mum, I miss you already!"
