A Love Trap novel Chapter 816

The teacher called Fabio to the front of the class and introduced him to the other children. She stood and watched as Fabio immediately befriended the rest of the class.

She watched over the children for some time before getting back to Ashley. "Fabio is getting along with the other children really well," the teacher happily reported to Ashley.

Ashley watched Fabio play with his classmates through a window. The boy seemed to enjoy his time with the class a lot.

The teacher looked towards the same direction as Ashley. After some time, Ashley smiled and said, "He's such a good boy. I can already see that he likes being in class with the other children."

"I just met him today, but he is one of the best kids I have ever seen. Usually, new kids cry and make a scene during their first day in school. Time and time again, those children prove to be difficult to handle! It really takes time and patience for them to feel comfortable," the teacher said.

"These kids are so used to having their parents near them for many years. I do understand why they would react that way towards a whole new environment. But they get more and more comfortable through time, right?" Ashley said politely.

The teacher nodded and said, "Yes, that's right!

Everyone seems quite obedient...

How old is Fabio?"

"Four and a half years old."

"Is this his first time in kindergarten?"

"Yes, he actually did not want to come today. Fabio has an older brother, who would teach him from time to time. Seeing that, I didn't feel the need to urge Fabio to attend kindergarten."

"It is actually beneficial for a child to attend kindergarten for some time. That way, he will be able to socialize with children of his age. Knowing how to make friends is essential in the coming stages of a child's life," the teacher replied.

Ashley nodded and answered, "Yes, we do believe that. That's actually why we decided to bring him here."

Richard stood idly beside Ashley, and so did Andrew. Neither of the two spoke.

The teacher looked at Richard and asked Ashley rather curiously, "Is this Fabio's older brother, the one you were talking about?"

Ashley looked at Richard. She smiled and replied, "Yes, he is."

"You have a very beautiful family!"

commented the teacher, smiling at Ashley and Andrew.

"Thank you, teacher."

After some time, Ashley began to feel a bit tired of standing up. She decided to sit on a chair nearby, as she continued to watch Fabio mingle with the other kids in class.

Seeing how silent Richard was, Ashley stroked his head and said, "Don't you want to go and play with your brother?"

Richard intently shook his head and said, "No. I'd rather stay here with you, Mommy."

In reality, Richard didn't want to play those games anymore. To him, they were games, appropriate for toddlers only.

Ashley looked at Richard, who sat quietly and said nothing. She then looked at Andrew, who sat next to Richard and was also rather silent. She raised her eyebrows and thought, 'They are like two peas in a pod...'

Andrew sat there quietly. Ashley knew that her husband would remain silent as long as nobody talked to him. The same was true for Richard.

She found the boy's demeanor somewhat peculiar. 'I wonder how Richard matched Andrew's personality, ' Ashley thought.

She had raised Richard from the moment she met him. 'He had always been this reserved. But it is strange how he acts like Andrew, '

Ashley pondered further.

Ashley wanted to spend her day-off with her children so she was happy to sign them up for school today. Her heart began to melt as she saw how happily Fabio played with the other children.

After all, this would be Fabio's school for more than a year.

Suddenly, Fabio approached Ashley. The boy had stopped playing with the other children. He said, "Mommy, I don't want to play anymore. Let's go home."

Ashley pulled Fabio into her arms. She wiped the sweat off her child's forehead and asked, "Why do you want to go home now? Are you not having fun?"
