It still happened.
Looking at Swedum's expectant face, Ceres didn't want to hurt his feelings.
She couldn't stop thinking of the scenes in which Swedum's classmates laughed at him.
"Sure," Ceres said.
"That would be great!" Swedum exclaimed.
Swedum was so happy, while Ceres couldn't force a smile.
Friday was "Family Day" at Swedum's kindergarten. Every child should bring their parents to school. The purpose of this activity was to bring parents and children closer through various games.
After all, parents nowadays were too busy to spend time with children.
Ceres had prepared the clothes they would wear for "Family Day" in advance.
On that day, Johny woke up early. Ceres was still sleeping, so he didn't wake her up.
Swedum was so excited that he rushed into Ceres's room after he got dressed. When he saw that Ceres was still on the bed, he went over, wanting to call Ceres. But Johny stopped him.
"Mommy slept very late yesterday. We shouldn't disturb her. She needs to rest," Johny said.
Swedum pouted and said, "You didn't take it seriously. Since you know what we will do today, you should have gone to bed early!"
Johny was rendered speechless, but he couldn't tell Swedum that adults had so much fun at night.
"Swedum, mommy will get up at once. We will not get late." Ceres woke up when she heard Swedum's voice.
Johny walked over and touched Ceres' forehead. Swedum noticed that something was wrong. He walked over and also touched Ceres' forehead.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Swedum asked.
He touched his forehead again and said, "Mommy, your temperature is the same as mine."
"I have a minor headache. But I will be fine." Ceres had a nasal voice.
She struggled to sit up.
"Why?" Johny asked.
"It's all your fault. You didn't let me sleep until midnight. And you didn't close the window," Ceres said as she rubbed her temples. She looked weak.
"What did Daddy do to you last night? Did you quarrel?" Swedum looked at Ceres with his head tilted.
"Children shouldn't ask questions like this!" Johny said, and then he turned to Ceres, "If you are not feeling good, you could stay at home."
"I can't," Ceres said.
"Mommy, if you're not feeling well, you don't have to go. You should stay at home and rest." Swedum pouted. He wanted Ceres to go with him, but he cared about her health.
"It's not a big deal. I will get better later." Ceres reached out to rub Swedum's cheek.
"No, Mommy, you sound so weak. It's okay. We have plenty of activities like this one. You can go with me next time. Daddy can accompany me," Swedum said.
The more understanding Swedum was, the more guilty Ceres was. She said, "I am sorry, Swedum."
"It's okay. Take good care of yourself. We will come back early," Swedum said.
"Lie down and rest." Johny tucked Ceres' cover in.
"Enjoy yourself," Ceres said.
Johny nodded.
After Johny and Swedum left, Ceres sat up. She brushed her hair and sat on the bed, feeling so sorry.
She knew that she couldn't hide forever.
