Free Web NovelChapter 532: Chapter 484: Showing Off
4:20 PM, Dorami Kindergarten entrance.
Lin Weilin’s figure arrived here ten minutes earlier than usual.
The reason for arriving early was entirely due to his "gentle" wife anxiously urging him.
The reason was nothing else.
Just worry!
All of the children in kindergarten need to get vaccinated today, don’t they!
As parents, nothing is more concerning than their child’s small fears, especially their precious son, who used to cry loudly every time he got a shot, crying and fussing, and even after the shot, he’d stay in unease and fear all day.
The kind that wakes up startled in sleep!
Although Lin Weilin thought his wife’s worries were a bit excessive, he couldn’t resist her insistence, and a tiny bit of worry deep down in his heart made him decide to come early to pick up his son.
By now, several parents from other classes had gathered at the entrance.
Lin Weilin waited in his class’s designated area, listening to the faint sound of children’s chatter from inside the kindergarten, and only then did the string in his heart truly tighten, starting to worry about his son: "I wonder how that little rascal is doing today? Did he cry all day?"
Just then.
A familiar, friendly voice interrupted his thoughts: "Hey, Pengpeng’s dad, you’re here so early today! That’s rare!"
"Yes, Yuanyuan’s mom! You’re here too."
Upon hearing, Lin Weilin looked up and saw Li Xiuxian greeting him, so he smiled and said: "Today, the kids are getting vaccines, right? I’m worried about our Pengpeng, so I came early to check."
Li Xiuxian nodded understandingly: "Same here, I can’t shake off the worry in my heart."
At that moment, other parents from the class also began to arrive.
Upon seeing each other, they couldn’t help but gather around and start warmly greeting each other:
"Oh, did you all come early today too?"
"Haha, I knew it, on a special day like today, it’s impossible for me to sit still and come early alone, see, everyone cares about their kids’ matters!"
"How can we not worry! My Hanghang, every time he gets a shot, it’s like he’s fighting for his life. It takes both me and his dad to calm him down. This time I don’t know how he’ll act up; I feel both sorry and helpless. Just imagine how many little challenges the teachers must face today, probably busy until they’re running around constantly."
"Yes, yes, I feel the same. The group chat is unusually quiet today, and the teachers haven’t sent any messages, not even a photo. I don’t dare to disturb easily, afraid my questions become a burden to them, and I don’t want to seem overly anxious and cause trouble. But the concern inside my heart is really hard to let go..."
"Yeah, the teachers must be busy with all the hustle today. Three teachers taking care of so many kids, comforting them during the shots; just thinking about it seems hard. We should really give the teachers more understanding and support."
"Absolutely, today’s situation is special; the teachers must be working non-stop, calming and persuading. I guess we’ll have to wait until tonight for them to share photos in the group. So, let’s wait patiently, trusting that the teachers will take good care of the kids."
"I totally trust the teachers; they will surely take good care of the kids. I just hope my little rascal behaves and doesn’t become the school’s ’celebrity,’ or else I’ll have nowhere to show my face..."
"Indeed, just hope the kid doesn’t get famous for crying, or starting tomorrow, I’ll let his dad pick him up from school. I’ll wait until this blows over before resuming the pick-up duty."
"You really are a loving mother! But this strategy is spot on, 666! If my boy acts like that, I’ll do the same."
"I bet when my kid comes out of school, he’ll definitely have a face full of grievance, complaining to me."
"That’s for sure... how about we make a bet? I bet a dime that when they see us, they’ll instantly tear up and start pouring out grievances."
"Alright, bet it is, who’s afraid! I bet on that too..."
"..."
For a moment, the parents’ worries were quietly eased by this little "bet," even stirring up a subtle anticipation, looking forward to seeing the kids complain to them.
Hmm.
Just imagining that scene, the parents found it amusing and funny, and chuckled a bit, occasionally peeking toward the distant school building, wishing for the end-of-school time to hurry up.
...
"Mommy and Daddy (hmm, baby), if you love me, spend more time with me, if you love me, give me more kisses (hmm), if you love me, praise me more (awesome), if you love me, hug me more (huggy)..."
As the melodious dismissal song from Dorami Kindergarten began to play, it announced the end of the children’s day of learning, while also signaling the start of the pleasant reunion with family.
The children, under the gentle guidance of their respective homeroom teachers, put on their favorite backpacks, with a slung empty little water bottle on their shoulder, neatly lining up, their tiny feet stepping lightly to the rhythm, following the teachers’ pace, moving towards the kindergarten entrance.
Each small face was a glow of radiant smiles, happier than any other time!
