JAYDEN

Few weeks ago

"Welcome to America, Sir. I think you'll love it here." Jin put my luggage against the wall.

"Jin, you do realize this isn't my first time here. I literally stayed here all my life."

"Well, it has been six years. You might have forgotten some things."

"Just find a house I can buy soon. I can't stay in this hotel for long."

"Of course, sir."

Two weeks later

"What's so special about this Kindergarten?"

"Well, it's the school Mr. Park, your father, attended while he was here. So, Mr. Park makes it his priority to donate to the school." He explained.

"Oh..."

"They're having a play, and they wanted you to meet the little actors and actresses." He smiled happily.

"I..." I was interrupted by the ringing of my iPhone.

Ma

"I'll be there, just give me a minute."

Jin nodded and left my office.

"Tae-Tae."

I rubbed my forehead and laughed. She was never going to stop calling me that.

"Hey, ma, how are you?"

"I'm not good."

"What happened?" I asked with genuine worry.

"I miss my Tae-Tae. Come back home."

"Ma, we talked about this. I have to work. You can call me anytime, but I can't come home now."

"If you were married, maybe your kids would have kept me company."

Here we go...

"I recall you have another son, and he's still living with you."

"Kwan? Ha! That boy never leaves his room, you and I know that."

Kwan was my younger brother, and he was the most introverted person I knew. You could count the words he said in a day. He and I were close.

"He's worse now. All he does is go to school, get good grades, eat, and sleep. He won't admit it, but he misses you."

"I'll call him when I get to the hotel tonight, ma, but I have to go now."

"Okay, bye now. I love you, Tae-Tae."

"I love you too, ma."

I shoved my phone in my pocket and headed to my SUV.

Jin drove all the way to a certain kindergarten, and we were escorted to a hall by a woman.

"I'm happy you could make it, Jayden. It's an honor to meet you," the man, who I assumed was the principal, said.

"It's a pleasure to be here." I smiled at him.

"The kids have been preparing for a while now. They said they really wanted to impress the crowd." He smiled. "We really appreciate the donations you've been making to the school."

"Don't mention it. My father started this tradition, and I have no intention of stopping it."

"Would you like to meet the kids?"

"Of course."

He took me behind the stage, and I saw a lot of kids and a few teachers helping them practice.
