Right Here Waiting For You

She wasn’t sure whether the child would understand what she was trying to explain.

Indeed, Tiantian didn’t quite understand her explanation. What she did understand, though, was that Inky wasn’t at the preschool!

No wonder Inky didn’t come with her to school in Godma’s car. She thought Inky had to leave for classes earlier because his classes started earlier. It never occurred to her that they weren’t even enrolled in the same school.

After making sense of the whole situation, her lips pursed and her eyelashes trembled. A pool of tears started welling in her eyes.

One second…

Two seconds…

Three seconds later…

Tiantian finally exploded!

“Then I don’t want to attend preschool anymore!” Flinging away Miss Mi’s hand, she ran toward the gates of the preschool, with tears rolling down her cheeks.

She didn’t want to attend a school where Inky was nowhere to be found!

Miss Mi was dumbfounded. So much for being well-behaved.

Tiantian ran toward the gates in tears.

Miss Mi finally regained her composure just as Tiantian was on the verge of stepping out from the preschool. She quickly shouted, “Security, stop that child!”

School Security was situated right next to the gates. When the officer saw a little girl crying as she ran over, he had thought that it was first-day jitters just like the other kids. He quickly picked her up.

“Let go of me, you bad man! Come save me, Inky! This bad man is going to kidnap me!” Her voice was loud, shrill, and extremely penetrative. Even the parents who were busy coaxing their own children couldn’t help but glance at her and laugh.

Whose naughty kid was this! How could she be so unruly?!

In comparison, their kids didn’t seem that bad after all.

The officer’s countenance darkened, and he quickly brought her back to Miss Mi.

However, Tiantian was fixated on finding Inky and was an unstoppable force. Biting and hitting the officer, she started screaming, “Help! Help! Help! This bad man is going to hit me! Save me, Inky!”

But no matter how she screamed or shouted, she was still dragged to class by the teacher and the school security and forced to keep company with a bunch of other kids.

When Tiantian entered the classroom, it was already filled with kids. These kids cast curious glances at her, evidently aware that she had been escorted there from the gates by school security.

“What are you looking at? Our moms don’t want us anymore. They’ve abandoned us at preschool. They don’t want us anymore!” Ning Tiantian’s shrill voice filled the classroom as fresh tears poured down her face.

At the mention of having been “abandoned” by their moms, these kids started wailing together with Tiantian. They went from being calm one second to bursting into tears the next, despite their teacher’s efforts in pacifying them.

What set Tiantian apart from the rest, was that she was actually crying because she didn’t get to see Inky.

The two teachers present in the classroom couldn’t stand the sight of these crying children anymore. They had no choice but to coax each and every one of them. By the time they succeeded, it was already time for lunch.

Distracted by the delicious food, the children forgot about crying and focused on eating instead.

Ning Tiantian only took two bites of the rice before tossing her spoon. She started kicking up a big fuss again, shouting, “I don’t want this. It tastes awful! I wanna go home and eat what Mama cooks… I wanna go home to Inky!”
