Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2464

The second day Munchkin was with us, we arrived at the entrance of the cinema.

We held Munchkin’s hand on each side. I glanced at the sign erected next to me. “On second thought, why don’t we leave? It doesn’t look like there’s anything interesting to watch.”

“I want to watch this.” Munchkin pointed to the only animated movie on the sign.

“In Japanese? Can you understand it?”

“I just want to watch it.”

I had wanted to convince Munchkin to leave, but Marius agreed with him. “Alright, let’s just watch this, then.”

There were not a lot of people watching this movie at all with only four to five individuals sitting around sparsely. They were mostly parents who brought their children.

I did not know why Munchkin was so adamant about watching this movie.

Toughening myself, I sat through the entire movie.

After the movie ended, I looked at Munchkin who was next to me. He suddenly turned to me. “Mommy, was it good?”

“It’s alright. Why did you want to watch this?” I gave voice to the question I had.

Munchkin blinked and shook his head. “I just wanted to watch it. It’s over now. Let’s go.”

“Alright.”

We brought Munchkin to the supermarket after the movie.

He was choosing his favorite items at the front while Marius and I followed behind him.

“I don't know what Munchkin is thinking. I don't think he liked that movie very much, but he insisted on watching it.” I shook my head, my mind a mess.

Beside me, Marius had his hands in his pockets. “Perhaps Munchkin was just feeling a lack of security and wanted you to spend more time with him. He would freak out if we just stayed home and had no interaction.”

His words woke me up.

Munchkin was still so young but had experienced so much. He did not show it, but he must be feeling terrible.

I had been ignoring his feelings too much.

“Munchkin was actually devastated when he first saw the news about Theo and Delia. I comforted him for a long time that day. When he felt better later on, he asked me not to tell you about it because he knew you would be even more devastated than him.”
