Kindergarten

"You can't go to school with me" tried to explain Ming while trying to stop her tears.

"Why?"asked tofu in her crying voice.

Right now, tofu was sitting on ground and crying her eyes out, and her constant shaking of head has messed her hairs as well.

"I told you tofu, it is a place where you go with people of your age. I am bigger than you."

Thinking for sometme, tofu spoke, "Then I will not go."

Sitting down besides her Ming patiently explained her while combing her hairs with his tiny hands and fixing her appearance a little bit,

"Tofu, you cannot always stay with me, or your parents, or even my parents. You have to go to school to learn, to study, to become a smart person.......

Now, now before you ask why, let me tell you.... studying is important, it helps you become a better person. Do you want your brother ming to be ashamed because you did not study?

Also if you go to school, you will make more friends. Like brother ming has brother yihan. They will also come to play with you.

So you should go to school without crying, ok ?"

"Will I get friends?" asked tofu wiping her tears..

Nodding to her question, Ming got up and pulled her up as well.

Helping her to wipe her face, Ming got busy in organizing his homework while tofu sat on the bed watching Ming and thinking about her school.

Outside the door the four elders were happily jumping as ming has again handeled the matter in a much better way than imagined. Sometimes father Jiang would feel confused as if he had exchanged his roles with ming....

At night while sleeping,

Because her brother ming cannot go to school with her, she asked him to sleep together at night.

Who can deny her request...no one.

Thinking about making new friends tofu became excited and kept on asking about ming's first day at school which was of no use. The only thing he used to say was "It is good"

Early morning, on tofu's first day of school

Ming was in elementary school, while tofu would be going to kindergarden. Ming has to leave early for his school, and usually he goes without waking tofu up, but because it is tofu's first day in school he woke her up as well.

While ming was about to leave, tofu said, "Bye brother ming, I will study hard."

With his usual cold face he answered"There won't be much to study"

Happily tofu answered "Then you cheer for me"

Packing her bag both Mother Li and Mother Jiang came to drop tofu to kindergarden.

Outside the kindergarden,

Both the mothers saw other childrens crying out loud while hanging on their parents. Worried that even tofu would cry Mother Jiang said "Tofu, be good. Don't cry ok. Mother will pick you up soon. "

Looking at her mother with big bright eyes tofu answered "Tofu promised Brother ming, she will study hard, No crying"

Patting her head both mothers passed tofu to the teacher standing at the gate, who was directing new childrens to the classroom.

As soon as tofu left Mother Li spoke, "It seems just yesterday when she was born. Time sure flies."

Catching tofu's small hand in her big hand teacher Yu asked tofu with a sweet smile "Let's go to the classroom child, okay?"

Happily following the teacher tofu thanked her "Thankyou teacher."

Usually childrens cry on their first day of kindergarden, but seeing such a beautiful child who was not crying but was happily smiling, increased tofu's evaluation in the teacher's eyes....

'Surely, childrens detached from families don't cry. She probably belongs to a rich family. Only their childrens remain calm in every situation.' thought the teacher
