Bright didn't turn back. He was in a hurry and answered, "I have to deal with something urgent now."
"Bright, what about the activity? You have promised Doris and said that you will join the activity with
her. This is the first time you join the parent-child activity with her. You can't go back on your words
because you are angry with me." Rose didn't want to disappoint Doris.
Doris was so happy because her dad could join the activity together with her. She hoped that she could
also have a dad like any other kids; she hoped that she could have a dad who loved her so much. So
Rose didn't want to make her sad because her dad couldn't join the activity because of work.
"It's my fault. Please don't be mad at Doris." She said to him.
Bright signed when he saw that her eyes turned red. He touched her eyes and said, "I certainly will join
the activity with Doris. I just need to do something urgent now. And I will join the activity as soon as I
finish it. OK?"
"Don't cry. Doris would think that I am bullying you. Do you want to make her get me wrong?"
Rose said quickly, "I don't mean that."
"Then show me a smile." Bright said to her with a smile.
And Rose also smiled.
"That's good. Don't cry in front of Doris." Bright held her hands and said, "You should go to find Doris
now."
"How long will it take to handle your work?" Rose was worried that he couldn't join the activity on time.
Bright checked the time on his watch and said, "Up to two hours. I will come as soon as possible. Don't
worry."
"What happened on earth? Why do you need to handle it right now?" Rose kept asking him.
"It's really urgent, so I have to handle it right now." Bright had no choice, "I must go now..."
"Well, I got it. Please remember to join the activity as soon as possible." Rose took more into
consideration the child's feelings, "Or she will be sad."
"I know." Bright nodded and then went to the living room together with Rose.
Doris stood up from the sofa when she saw them and said, "Dad, mom, shall we go now?"
"Yes." Rose said.
"Let's go, sweetheart." Bright held her in his arms and went out of the house.
After getting in the car, Bright drove them to the kindergarten by himself.
They needed to gather at the kindergarten at 8 o'clock, and then took a bus to the suburban farm for
the parent-child activity. For children, this was a process of learning and growth. It also allowed parents
to have the opportunity to accompany their children to enjoy time and learn knowledge, and made their
parent-child relationship closer.
Rose got off the car with Doris, but Bright didn't get off the car. Doris looked at Bright in puzzlement and
asked, "Dad, why don't you go with us?"
"Dear, please go to the suburban farm with your mom by taking the bus first. I will go to buy parent-
child clothes for us now. And I will go to the suburban farm to join the activity with you as soon as I buy
the clothes. OK?" Bright had to lie to her so that she wouldn't feel disappointed or sad.
"Well, we will wait for you on the suburban farm." Doris didn't doubt him, "Dad, you must pay attention
to safety when driving."
"OK. And you also need to follow your mom's order." Bright gave them a wave and then drove away.
After he left, Rose went into the Kindergarten with Doris.
When they went into Kindergarten, a teacher said to the parents, "Please take your children to the
playground to line up according to your class. We are about to set off."
"Our class is there." Doris rushed to the class with Rose and said, "I see Wyatt."
They joined the class and then lined up. Wyatt and his dad stood in front of them.
When Wyatt saw Doris, he immediately let go of Matthew's hand and went towards Doris and said to
her, "Doris, Aunt Rose. We have been waiting for you for a long time. I was really afraid you wouldn't
join the activity."
"You are such a fool. It is so funny in the parent-child activity, so I certainly will join it." Doris lightly
tapped his forehead.
And Wyatt touched his forehead and smiled, "That's good."
"I certainly will join it." Doris said again.
"Don't you dad join the activity together with you? Why doesn't he come here?" Wyatt noticed that
Doris came to the Kindergarten with his mom when they arrived at the playground.
"It's none of your business." Doris said, "My dad will join the activity later."
"Well." Wyatt nodded and then said to Matthew, "Dad, could you come with me? I want to line up
behind Doris, so that I can talk with her."
Matthew had to follow him and lined up behind Doris and Rose.
"Hi, Matthew." Rose greeted first. Although she was Bright's wife, she had to respect him because he
was her higher-up.
Matthew nodded and said, "Why doesn't Mr. Bright join the activity with you?"
"He has something urgent, so he needs to handle it first. And he will join the activity in the suburban
farm later." Rose told him the truth.
"Well." Matthew and Wyatt wore a white shirt with green sleeves and green pants, with a green
dinosaur on the shirt and pants.
Wyatt liked dinosaurs, so he had many clothes with dinosaurs.
Then, under the leadership of the teachers, the parents and children of each class got on the bus one
after another.
The car was driven smoothly all the way to a farm in the suburbs.
It lasted fifty minutes on the way. When they arrived at the farm, they had a rest. The parent-child
activity would start at 9:30.
As the activity was about to begin, Doris felt a little nervous. She held Rose's hand and said, "Mom, will
Dad come?"
"Yes, he will. He will keep his promise. He will do it because he has promised you. We should trust
him." Rose was also a bit anxious, but she had to calm down and comfort Doris.
Doris trusted her and said, "OK, we should trust dad."
At 9:20, the teachers wanted to select two group leaders among the children. One was a girl and the
other one was a boy.
Doris raised her hand first and wanted to be a group leader.
And then the teachers asked her to be the group leader. Wyatt didn't dare to raise his hand, but he felt
very happy because Doris had been chosen as one of the group leaders.
Doris was the group leader for the girls. After lining up, the parent-child activity started at 9:30.
The first game was the tug of war. The children were put into two groups with an average number of
children. After the teachers counted to three, they would start to pull the rope with all of their strength.
Initially, the strength of these two groups is similar...
