Question

    I   40   her and found a tumor(????). She had no  41  of recovery. I looked at the fresh-faced boy and back at Tigress. I began to 42  pity on the boy. At such a young age, he had to face to part with his beloved one.

     She fell asleep, her head   53   in his hand, lovely and quiet, but her owner now had all the  54  . "This is the finest   55   you could give. You bear the pain so that the loved one might rest." The boy nodded and he understood.
