Su Yebai was montarily stunned by a single sentence.
His daughter actually said she had seen him...
This was truly sothing he did not expect.
"Then, can you tell Daddy where you saw him?"
Su Yebai’s voice was so gentle, fearing he might scare the little Dimples.
Little Dimples smiled.
"If I tell you, you can’t tell Mommy! Because it’s my secret!"
Su Yebai raised an eyebrow, this little quirky girl, having secrets at such a young age?
"Okay, then if you call Daddy, Daddy will keep your secret!"
Su Yebai coaxed her.
Little Dimples smiled and whispered in his ear, "Daddy, actually... I’ve seen your photo! The photo of you and Mommy together!"
Her breath by his ear was so light, yet what she said shocked Su Yebai imnsely.
"A photo of your mother and ?"
Little Dimples nodded seriously.
"Yes, once, when Mommy wasn’t ho, I moved a stool to find sothing on the bookshelf, and accidentally knocked Mommy’s book down. Then, the photo fell out. In the photo, Mommy was standing with a man. At that ti, I was wondering, could this man standing with Mommy be my Daddy!"
A single sentence pierced his heart in an instant.
It turned out, despite her young age, she was already... understanding enough!
And when she needed her father, he wasn’t there by her side.
Thinking of this, Su Yebai felt as if his heart were being fiercely clenched by sothing sharp, causing even breathing to beco painful.
He heard Little Dimples continue, "Later, I secretly hid that photo, placing it in my sketchbook, sticking it with glue. Until now, Mommy doesn’t know that the photo is missing, it’s actually hidden by !"
Little Dimples spoke with a smile, and seed very proud, but in Su Yebai’s eyes, it was... so heartbreaking.
He Yunzhi doesn’t know the photo is gone... perhaps she never looked back at that book, or maybe she had already forgotten there was a photo inside!
"When I just saw you, I realized you look exactly like the man in the photo... so, you’re not a stranger!" Little Dimples smiled sweetly, "Hmm, it turns out, you really are my Daddy!"
As Little Dimples said this, she reached out and hugged Su Yebai’s neck.
"Daddy, all these years, where have you been? Why didn’t you co to find and Mommy? Did you not want us anymore?"
"No, Daddy never thought about not wanting you!"
Su Yebai spoke sincerely...
If only he had known earlier... but there are no regrets in this world, it’s hard to buy "if only" with money!
Little Dimples only knew that other kids had both a mom and a dad, but she, she only had a mom, no dad!
"Actually, I also wanted a dad, but... Mommy said, Daddy went to a very far place and might take a long ti to co back! So, if I missed Daddy, I’d take my sketchbook and talk to the photo... I told him, if only you could co out of the photo and beco my Daddy, that would be great! Now, you’ve finally beco real!"
Little Dimples talked to herself, but each word was like a steel needle piercing Su Yebai’s heart. All of this... was his fault, wasn’t it?
His eyes were red as he said to Little Dimples, "Yes, now, Daddy has beco real, and won’t ever... leave you again! Won’t leave your mommy again either!"
Little Dimples looked at him, sowhat surprised, reached out to touch his face, and asked, "Daddy, why are you crying?"
Su Yebai choked up and said, "Daddy is very happy to see you! Really, very happy!"
