Liwei heard a young girl crying and he realized it would be Li hua. Chynnah had returned home an hour ahead of schedule and the twins were the only ones at school.
"Li hua" The man recognized her stowing away under the table. He considered what made her sad, the punishment they had to do was only to think about what they had done in a corner while classes proceeded. Older kids experience more however for a young girl her age she thought the discipline was grave.
"I'm sorry, I won't do it again. I want my mummy to come" All li hua wanted was to return home. She didn't like being in the school for a really long time.
"maybe mummy's occupied"
She shook her head "I need to go now"
"Would you be able to crawl out of the table, I need to talk to you better" She gestured and did as he said. The five year old slithered out and the man lifted her up "Come dear, there's no reason to cry" He cleaned her tears away then put her down.
