Chapter 1,349 Warmth and Despair(2/2)
But he couldn't bear to reject his son, so he chose to remain silent.
Little Mike is also expressing his dissatisfaction in his own way.
He put the cookies in the bowl on the table. Even though his father said not to play with food, he still continued to do it!
John was helpless.
This scene looks very loving and warm, but I don't know why, but it makes people feel inexplicably sad, and they feel sad for this father.
On the way to take little Mike to school, John taught his three-year-old son, little Mike, to press the traffic light switch before crossing the street.
Not only that, while waiting for the traffic light, little Mike playfully switched his left and right feet, danced, and imitated his father's walking. The cute steps made John couldn't help but chuckle.
But in a single-parent family, John, as a father, is destined to face some problems with his son.
At the gate of the kindergarten, when he heard other children saying goodbye to their mothers, little Mike asked his doubts: "Where is my mother?"
It was obviously not the first time Mike had asked this question, but John still replied: "I told you, Mike, she left!"
"Going far, far away?"
"Yes, very far away!"
"Kiss me!"
Mike kissed his father's cheek, then said goodbye to his father and walked into the school.
His children are as well-behaved as many single parents, but also as inexpressive as his silent father.
His time is running out, so he must find a new home for Mike before he leaves.
The first family was very wealthy and lived in a villa in the suburbs. They were a relatively well-educated couple. Mike was very satisfied with them at first.
Until the man of the couple started to say: "Of course, we will give our son the best education, which is your son!"
He said that his wife was a preschool educator, and Mike could go to her school. When he was older, he could be sent to the boarding school he had attended.
What bothers John is that his husband said he hopes his children can enjoy the childhood he once had, not play games, and be able to hike and climb trees. He will not let his children become empresses.
What John cares more about is that Mike is happy at his current school and has many friends.
Because Mike was going to lose him soon, and he didn't want him to lose his friends and happiness again.
But the couple, especially the husband, obviously didn't care about Mike's likes and dislikes.
After leaving the family, John took Mike home. On the overpass, the father and son stood there and watched the cars passing by.
John said to Mike: "Think about these trucks, delivering a lot of things to many places. These trucks carry people to far away places, to work, or to find friends. Mike, do you want to live somewhere else in the future?"
"Like a different city, a different home?"
Apparently John was trying to start telling Mike about his upcoming adoption, but he was very torn, and he wasn't the kind of person who was good at talking.
I can only use this metaphor, which seems inappropriate.
But the three-year-old son said: "I love our home!"
Obviously, although he is small, he is very smart.
His son's answer made John's heart feel like a knife. If he could, why would he want to leave?
But he can't, he doesn't have much time!
At home, Mike looked at the tattoo on his father's arm and drew on his own arm with a crayon.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Obviously, he also wants to be like his father.
Seeing this scene, John couldn't calm down in his heart. This was his son!
But he has to push him to other families with his own hands, to call other people father and mother!
But he had to do this.
At the adoption agency, he got angry for the first time because the people at the adoption agency suggested that he prepare a time capsule that he could leave to the eighteen-year-old Mike at that time. Maybe at some time in the future, this would be a time capsule for someone who misses his father.
thing, he has the right to know who his parents are.
But John didn't want his young son to understand the relatively heavy meaning of death now, and he didn't want to know that he had a father who was a window cleaner and a mother who abandoned him after he was adopted and grew up. He hoped that Mike could
Just forget about him, why do you have to let him know that he was adopted?
He hopes that his son can have a complete and only home! There is no need to add the trouble of having both adoptive parents and biological parents to Mike. Moreover, his biological mother abandoned him, and his biological father died when he was three years old.
He died when he was young. For a child, such a childhood was too cruel.
But people from the adoption agency told him that even if Mike didn't need to know now, he always had the right to know who his biological parents were.
This matter made John extremely entangled and painful.
But he had to pretend that everything was business as usual.
Early in the morning, his son came to wake him up, brought him a storybook, and asked him to tell stories.
Although he was still very sleepy, he still patiently told stories to his son, took his son to the park to play, to eat ice cream, to watch the excavator digging soil...
Everything is so warm and intoxicating that you can't help but smile.
