Chapter 691 - Dealing with the Problem (1/2)
Kyle and Sayuri continued to discuss the matter over the night. They knew that it would Kyle Junior would inevitably be hurt, and hurt badly. The only question was, how to deal with the hurt?
The next morning, when Junior was coming out of dreamland, he felt that the bed he was on was rather lumpy. Yet, for some strange reason, it was quite comfortable. Slowly blinking his eyes open, he gasped and quickly clasp his lips tightly together.
He was sleeping on his father.
They were still on the sofa, though this time, his father was lying down while he was sprawled on his father's chest, and had used the crook of the arm as a pillow.
”You're awake?” came his voice from above.
Junior slowly looked up, to see him looking down on him kindly.
He felt ashamed.
Last night, he had actually thrown a tantrum upon seeing the cozy apartment. An apartment for a nice, small family. There was even a bedroom for a child, which hit Junior quite badly.
His dream of his father getting back together with his mother shattered then and he was very upset. He had always tried to be a big boy, like what his grandpa told him to be. To take care of his mother but he had utterly failed this time.
Junior nodded.
Kyle patted the boy on the back and slowly got up, cradling him a bit until he got to his feet.
”Go and wash up,” Kyle instructed, ”Your change of clothes and toiletries are all in the bathroom.”
Junior didn't answer and went to do as instructed.
Inside the bathroom, he saw a T-shirt, underwear, and pants. There was also a small-size toothbrush, obviously for him. A step-stool at the sink, as well as one at the toilet. There were anti-slip mats all over.
Tears started forming on Junior's eyes and his chest felt painful.
He knew that these things were placed here for him. He had been to other people's houses before and it had always been difficult for him since everything was adult size. When he thought about it, it had already been here when he came over last night and used the toilet.
But he had been too upset to notice.
He had felt like he was an outsider, and an unwanted child. All his life, he had been looking forward to meeting his father. His mother always told him about his father and how great he was.
He would get his mother to read the Financial Magazine that detailed his father's life to him every night. He would watch John Wick 4 over and over again, and got his mother to tell him how they met.
It was his ultimate dream to be just like his father.
