After a glance, Kyle ignored Sofie and her present.
“Did you not hear her, Kyle?” asked Evan as he stared at Kyle who remained silent and was showing them both that he had no intention of responding to Sofie.
Sofie reached out to pick Kyle up but he quickly evaded her and walked out with his schoolbag on his own.
Acting like it did not bother her at all, Sofie smiled as followed behind and left Hillside Villa.
Two-face hypocrite!
“You… I’m not going to do that. In order to be your stepmother, I’m going to take ‘good’ care of you.”
Turning his head to glare at Sofie, Kyle told himself that he would take ‘good’ care of her too.
At Grant Kindergarten, Kyle’s classmates laughed at him the moment he walked into his classroom.
“Do you always ask your mom to fight for you?”
“What a loser!”
After putting his bag down on the desk, Kyle challenged them, “Who wants to fight me first? We’ll see who the loser is!”
“Why would we want to do that? So you can ask your mom for help again?”
“You’re a loser and your mom’s a madwoman!”
The part about his mother got Kyle all riled up as he raised his fists to hit the one who insulted her.
But that boy was too fast for Kyle.
Then Kyle chased those who continued to call his mother a madwoman all the way to the teacher’s office. There, a teacher just so happened to walk out and saw what was happening.
“Kyle is hitting us!”
“He kept chasing us!”
“You have to do something!”
“Kyle Seet! What do you think you’re doing?” scolded the teacher harshly.
When he turned to look, Kyle was surprised to see the person who has the same face as he does.
“Juan, why are you here?”
“You didn’t reply to my text last night, so I came to see you myself. How’s the kindergarten life treating you?”
Kyle lowered his head in frustration because it was definitely not what he imagined it to be.
“Cheer up, Kyle. Maybe we should swap. There are a lot of classmates you can play with at my kindergarten.”
When Kyle heard that, he was once again filled with hope.
He was just wondering what Juan’s kindergarten was like, but then he got his chance to find out for himself.
“Do you think anybody will notice?”
“Nah! Come on. Let’s find a place to switch our clothes.”
