Chapter 24


    There was actually no real homework in kindergarten it was all extra stuff that Emmett arranged for him


    to learn after school


    Since he was a tot he had already learned so much that other kindergartners couldn’t even scratch the


    surface on. He had even touched upon some business rted work.


    “Hmm, not bad Emmett gave him a rarepliment


    “Dad” Aiden looked at hum expectantly “If I get a perfect score on this test, can you grant me a wish?”


    Emmett was taken aback


    “What do you want?” This was the first time his son asked him for something


    “I want you to take me to the amusement park on the weekend!”


    Emmetts face darkened slightly. He wasnt a fan of such ces. He spoke in a deep voice, “I thought


    you found such ces childish?”


    He himsel had found such ces childish when he was a kid


    “But i see other kids dads taking them i want you to take me just once


    This kind of whining made Aiden feel so embarassing today


    Thank God he was at home if they were out in public, he would have be aughingstock. He was


    way too clingy. That was his self–assessment for the night


    “You can go with Grandma”


    Emmett put him down and sat on the sofa signaling he didn’t have time, but in reality, he just found


    such ces too loud and chaotic


    Aidens face tell, but for the sake of his and his little brother’s n, he insisted. “But Grandma is too old,


    she can’t join me on many rides!”


    “We have a nanny at homel


    “I don’t want to go with the nanny! I want my dad toe with me!”


    “Dont be stubborn”


    Emmett’s face hardened


    “Am i the stubbom one?” Aiden’s face turned red with anger, “Dad, is work all you care about? Is work


    more important than your own son? Why can’t you even grant me such a simple with?”


    He looked at Emmett with disappointment, like a pint–sized adult holding court. If it were Mom, she


    would definitely agree to take him to the amusement park and so would other kids” dads. Only his dad


    seemed


    to think he wasn’t important


    Emmett’s gaze flickered, but he soon felt a pang of guilt. He remembered the time his son ran away


    from home and the resolution he made to be a better father. He softened


    Aiden was about to storm off upstairs in a huff when Emmett called him back, “Stop!”


    Aiden stood his ground not locking back, still furning

    Emmett walked over, scooped Aiden up and muttered in his ear, “Alright, I promise”


    “Really?”


    Aiden’s eyes widened in surprise. He didn’t expect Emmett to cave in


    “Hmm, you also promised me you’d get a perfect score”


    “That’s a piece of cake”


    Aiden was totally cool about it. Kindergarten homework was a breeze for him


    Once back in his room, he couldn’t wait to share the news with Alex. Alex also told him that he and


    Mom made the same arrangement. Both kids started looking forward to their “coincidental encounter”


    on the


    weekend!
