“That’s right, our son. Play well today too, and see you again with Mom.”
“Yes! I love you, Mom! Goodbye!”
While shaking hands with Siwoo, who was getting farther away with the transfer agent, someone greeted her.
“Hello, mother.”
When she turned around, Siwoo’s teacher was smiling kindly. Dajeong also smiled and greeted her.
“Hello, teacher.”
“Mother, it’s nothing else. Have you heard about the big event at kindergarten at the end of this month?”
“Oh, yes…”
Dajeong’s gaze went to the bulletin board behind the teacher. It was covered with new posters.
It was a poster promoting the family sports festival, and not only on the bulletin board but also in the parking lot and the entrance road of the kindergarten, there were large banners, making it impossible not to notice.
“You mean the sports festival, right? I received a notice through the school notice and email.”
“That’s what I’m talking about. Mother, will you attend?”
“Of course. It’s Siwoo’s first sports festival since entering kindergarten, so I should attend.”
“Then, could you fill this out for me?”
Smiling, the teacher handed over a thin file.
“What’s this?”
“Well, it’s for making vests to distinguish teams. Our Rabbit Class decided on carrot color through a vote by the children, and we’re trying to organize the printing on the vests. For example, write ‘Siwoo’s family’ on the top line, and below that, Siwoo, and Mom, Dad, like that to easily recognize the family members’ relationships. We need you to write it in advance for the order to go through.”
“Oh…”
“For now, we’ll make vests for the two guardians of each child, so if you could write the names of the two people.”
“Two people? Can’t it be just the mother?”
Dajeong couldn’t help but show her confusion. The teacher was the same. It was because they both knew the fact that Siwoo didn’t have a father.
“Ah… Yes. It doesn’t matter, but there are events targeting fathers, and you can’t participate in events like the family triangle as a mom and dad couple. In that case, the children might feel excluded. So, usually, moms and dads…”
The teacher, extending her words, cautiously continued the conversation, glancing around.
“Or your mother. Another person can come instead of the father. If one parent can’t attend, there are also cases where grandfathers or uncles participate on behalf. So, that’s why we’re asking for the list in advance. We can’t print ‘uncle’ as ‘dad,’ you know.”
“I understand what you mean, teacher. Until when should I decide?”
“If you can decide who will attend by next weekend, please contact me. You can tell me through text or email.”
“I’ll do that. Well then, thank you for today, teacher.”
As they exchanged greetings and turned around, Dajeong thought deeply.
If only the mother attended, wouldn’t that possibly hurt Siwoo instead?
The event is named “Family Sports Festival,” after all.
Of course, Dajeong can confidently participate alone, but there will undoubtedly be a unique role that only a father can play.
It’s Siwoo’s first sports festival, so she can’t afford to disappoint him.
She doesn’t need to worry, though. Siwoo has an incredible aunt with a past as an athlete!
