He behaves too calm. It is not too much to say he is a teenager in terms of his mental maturity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy dad is a soldier. He is great, guarding the frontier!\u201d The little boy&#8217;s eyes sparkle with pride as he speaks of his father. \u201cHe loves me so much and sends me presents every year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA soldier?\u201d whispers Lily, denying the answer in her heart.<\/p>\n<p>Daniel is not a military man, otherwise, how can he spend so much time back in Country Z to help Louis? But how can this little boy be so similar to Daniel?<\/p>\n<p>Is there another brother in Daniel&#8217;s family?<\/p>\n<p>Well, there are people in the world who look exactly the same. Didn&#8217;t there ever be a child who looks exactly the same as some big guy when he was a kid? But they don\u2019t have any relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Thinking it over, Lily touches the boy&#8217;s head and laughs, \u201cYou will be better than your father in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course, I have to protect my mother!\u201d The little boy looks up and says, \u201cI will work hard to make my mother proud of me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs it just you and mom living together?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The boy nods. \u201cYes,\u201d he says, \u201cmother is busy with her work, and the servants take care of me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>No sooner has the boy finished his words that the phone in his bag rings.<\/p>\n<p>He quickly takes out the phone to answer, and his tone becomes very soft, \u201cHey, mommy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe teacher didn&#8217;t come today, so I came out to train myself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wear a mask.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen I will send the location to you and wait for you to pick me up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When the little boy answers the phone, Lily remembers that she has an appointment and is getting late.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen you wait here for your mother. I have something to do, so I have to go first.\u201d She says to the little boy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLady, you can ride my mountain bike.\u201d The little boy knows that Lily is in a hurry, so he takes off his helmet and gives it to her. \u201cRide on the sidewalk; you will get there soon if you ride the mountain bike.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That mountain bike isn&#8217;t small and Lily can ride it too.<\/p>\n<p>Lily, thinking that she is pressed for time, nods and says, Then I will borrow your mountain bike. Do you have a WeChat? I will return the mountain bike to you when I am off work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After exchanging the WeChat, Lily leaves with the mountain bike. The boy insists on giving her the helmet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPut on the helmet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, I can&#8217;t.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTry it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The helmet looks so small that Lily perfunctorily tries it on and then gives it back to the little boy. Unexpectedly, it fits her, but it is a little tight.<\/p>\n<p>Does she have such a small head?<\/p>\n<p>The little boy grins with knowing, \u201cSee, I said you can wear it. Lady, be careful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, then let&#8217;s contact on WeChat!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a hurry, Lily pedals off the mountain bike.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour father is on the frontier&#8230;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIsn&#8217;t there a holiday?\u201d \u201cChandler asks, \u201cThere are so many festivals a year. Even if he doesn&#8217;t have any holidays, doesn&#8217;t he have any holidays every year? But dad never came back once.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stella is shocked by Chandler.<\/p>\n<p>She didn&#8217;t expect her son to be so smart, and she touches his face with relief, her eyes full of pride.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, this is her and his son. He is smart, of course.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChandler, if you want to see Dad, you have to work hard, you know?\u201d Stella gazes at him, saying, \u201cYou have to be more powerful than your dad and make everyone fear you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chandler is disappointed when Stella doesn&#8217;t give him the answer he wants. Chandler says, \u201cMom, I&#8217;m only four. Even if I am very smart, I am still a child and need the love of my parents. I have so much time, why can&#8217;t I try harder in the future?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can&#8217;t!\u201d Stella presses his hand, her voice cold.<\/p>\n<p>She could not bear to think of those humiliating moments of the past.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can act like a baby in front of me, and be self-willed, but when you have classes, you should study hard. Remember, you can negotiate with others, but you can&#8217;t let others step on you and trample on your dignity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChandler, mom is strict for your own good.\u201d Stella touches his face. \u201cWhen you get older, you&#8217;ll meet someone you like. Mom wants you to be with someone you like.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMom, don&#8217;t cry.\u201d When Stella&#8217;s eyes turn red, Chandler feels panic and wipes her tears, \u201cI don&#8217;t want daddy anymore. I&#8217;ll study hard. Don\u2019t cry, mom.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMama didn&#8217;t cry.\u201d Stella sniffs, trying to force a smile. \u201cMom promises you that daddy would come back to you this New Year, okay?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chandler exults, \u201cIs Dad really coming back?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, as long as you behave well.\u201d Stella says, \u201cMom will be very busy these days. Will you be good at home and watch less TV?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chandler nods vigorously.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2078","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2078","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2078"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
