"Hahaha, otousan didn't mean to scare you, Joon. Really! Otousan called you from upstairs, but you ran away instead." Takeyuki spoke the truth. He hadn't gone straight home earlier because he was working on the class 10-F report card first.
Takeyuki was told by the principal that Joon and Gilang were punished for cleaning the entire corridor after school. So, Takeyuki intends to take Joon home together. Eh, the child ran in fear and ended up rolling down the stairs.
When he saw his son's stocky body rolling down the stairs, Takeyuki stifled a laugh. It was like seeing a sack of rice dropped from the top of the stairs. Who knows. This sounds cruel indeed, but considering his son's annoying behavior, so Takeyuki sometimes has the heart. It was funny and excited when he saw Joon was scared earlier.
Joon pursed his lips, taking his eyes off the Japanese. If Joon's bone is broken, his Otousan must be held responsible.
"So are we going home now?" Takeyuki asked. He cupped Joon's cheeks to face him. "So people shouldn't hold grudges, remember? Isn't that what Joon taught Otousan, huh?"
Joon rebuffed Takeyuki's hands that were on his cheeks. He was still annoyed that he was being treated so cruelly earlier.
"Everyone also has the right to forgive other people's mistakes or not. So, Joon chose not to forgive so quickly. It's good! It has scared people, now shamelessly just says sorry." Joon grumbled at Takeyuki's side.
Okay, if the Japanese is the homeroom teacher, but that person is also a father who abused Joon at that time. Despite telling people not to hold grudges, in fact Joon is still holding a grudge against his otousan.
"Okay, it's okay if Joon still hasn't forgiven Otousan. But... if Otousan treats you to a meal, how about it?" Takeyuki tried to negotiate.
Joon glared at the word 'food'. That word has always made Joon's heart waver all this time. Just now, he had to mop all the corridors because Gilang was luring him with food. Now, his Otousan is using sneaky methods, just like Gilang did earlier.
Joon advises himself to stay on his feet. Seriously? He will no longer accept bribes in the form of food.
"I don't want to! That was too much. Joon feels like he's going to die of fear."
"Has Otousan apologized?!"
"Sorry isn't enough, Akiyama-sama. My heart is still beating so hard right now. I feel like my heart is going to jump out of place." Joon was hyperbolic as usual.
Takeyuki actually laughed at that.
"Okay, if you don't want to. I plan to buy egg martabak and sweet martabak after this. Ah, I'll just eat it with Jay, Ken and Nana." Takeyuki spoke. He got up and was about to leave Joon alone at the end of the stairs on the second floor.
Hearing that, Joon stomped his foot.
"Huwaakh! How come Otousan is insensitive?!" shouted Joon, annoyed. If there was an award for the cruelest father, it should be Akiyama Takeyuki who got the nobel prize.
"Well... he said earlier that he didn't want Otousan to treat him?"
"Who said they didn't want to? Joon was still thinking about it."
Takeyuki smiled hearing that. It is very easy to persuade the boy who loves to eat it.
Joon stretched out both his hands towards Takeyuki.
"Help stand up, Otousan! Joon sprained his leg," complained Joon.
Takeyuki lowered his head and put his hands on Joon's armpits. He helped his son up.
Joon felt pain in his ankle from slipping down the stairs earlier.
"Well, this must be the punishment of a disobedient child. Otousan already said that tomorrow you can go to school. Why are you insisting on going today, huh?"
"Tired at home, Otousan. Father and Daddy left the house early in the morning. I don't know where they went. Otousan also went to school this morning. Even though Joon wanted to hang out."
"Otousan has a need with another teacher earlier. So, leave early."
"Why don't you wake Joon up first, huh?"
"You're the one who sleeps like cow, Joon. That's why you don't hear the commotion at our house in the morning."
In the midst of the commotion, they didn't notice that a pair of eyes were watching them from the end of the stairs.
