Not Welcome
Child's Mom and Child's Dad smiled at their child one last time and waved before turning to leave.
"Nana."
Teacher Lin took the child's hand.
Because she had been talking with the child's parents...
Now only she and the little mushroom-headed girl remained at the kindergarten entrance.
"Let's go."
Teacher Lin led the child by the hand, walking step by step into the kindergarten.
Child's Mom stopped and looked back.
"Don't worry."
The man comforted the woman.
"Nana will be fine."
"...Mm."
Child's Mom nodded.
She'll be fine...
The closer they got to the classroom, the more nervous the little mushroom-headed girl became.
She unconsciously tightened her grip on the teacher's hand.
Teacher Lin noticed.
She looked down.
She smiled warmly at the little mushroom-headed girl looking up at her. "It's okay."
What's the big deal?
What child didn't say something unrealistic now and then?
Once enough time passed, it would all be behind them.
It was okay.
The moment Teacher Lin entered the classroom, it fell silent for a second.
Soon, the room was noisy again.
The children gathered in little groups.
Laughing and playing around.
It seemed no one had noticed the little mushroom-headed girl had arrived.
The little mushroom-headed girl pressed her lips together.
She felt a little out of place.
And a little sad.
She didn't quite dare look at her classmates.
But...
She wanted to find Lulu.
Lulu...
Was she still mad at her?
Teacher Lin paused.
These children...
"Clap, clap~"
She raised her hands and clapped.
"Children."
Teacher Lin smiled sweetly.
"Look."
"Who's back?"
Teacher Lin bent down and nudged the little mushroom-headed girl, who was hiding behind her, forward.
The little mushroom-headed girl's searching gaze froze.
She still hadn't found Lulu...
