Shortly after Catherine left, Suzie stuffed a card into Lucas's hand. "This is from our scummy dad. Take it and spend it whenever you want. I have one too. Greatgrandpa gave it to me."
"I don't want it." Lucas tossed it back to Suzie and reminded her, "Susan Jones, are you hoping that our scummy dad will get back together with Mommy?"
A guilty look flashed across Suzie's eyes. "Actually... Our scummy dad is more attractive in real life than in photos. We'll be honored if we go out with him..." 1
Lucas was at a loss for words. He knew that his sister was unreliable, considering that she admired people with good looks. "Don't forget that he's going to marry another woman. He's a scumbag. If it weren't for Mommy, who protected us back then, we might not have survived."
Suzie instantly kept quiet.
"Also, don't forget how well Uncle Wesley treats us," Lucas reminded her bluntly. "All this while, Uncle Wesley has been waiting for Mommy."
"Fine. I’m not going to matchmake them."
Suzie dropped her head.
Today, the preschool teacher talked about an
important topic called "You Can't Touch Me".
The teacher said earnestly, "Children, if a stranger wants to touch your face, backside, or chest, you must not allow them to, alright? Also, don't take off your pants or shirt in front of a stranger. Our body is private and must not be exposed to others."
Upon hearing that, Suzie furrowed her caterpillar-like brows. In the end, she raised her hand and asked, " Teacher, what happens if someone sees my naked body?"
"If it's a stranger, you can call the police," the teacher responded seriously.
"What if it's not a stranger?" Suzie pondered in distress. "Uncle saw Aunty's body..."
The teacher was speechless.
