Sliding down the slide, she raced to join the principal, willingly following her lead.
Once they reached the office door, the principal stopped and smiled at Jennie. Your moms inside. I wont go in with you. You two can have a good chat together.
Jennie gazed up at the principal. Okay, thank you, she said politely.
Dont mention it. The principals heart melted when she looked into Jennies big, adorable eyes. She had an overwhelming sense of fondness and gently patted Jennies head, sighing inwardly.
The revelation surfaced that Jennie was not the biological daughter of Tyrones first wife but rather the illegitimate daughter Tyrone had with another woman before his marriage. The individual who previously visited the kindergarten to inquire about the situation was, in fact, Jennies biological mother, who also happened to be a leaders niece.
Jennies supposed biological mothers unexpected visit to the principals office today and her wish to see Jennie took the principal by surprise. After getting confirmation from Jennies father, the principal summoned Jennie to the office.
Jennie rushed into the office excitedly. But when she saw Keilani, she was stunned and stopped. Disappointment flashed across her face.
Pouting, she asked, What are you doing here?
Jennie, Im here to see you! Keilani responded, sensing the shift in Jennies mood and growing slightly impatient.
Keilani wouldnt have bothered to please Jennie if it werent for Tyrone. She smiled, trying to be patient. I know I havent been around for the past five years, but I promise Ill make it up to you from now on.
Jennie pursed her lips and declared firmly, You cant just say it.

Words arent enough. Though they said Sabrina isnt my mother, she treats me very well. As my mother, you should treat me even better.
It will take time for me to like you, as comparisons require patience.
If it were in the past, Jennie would have been excited to know her biological mother had visited her, glad by the revelation that she was not an orphan.
But Jennie had long embraced Sabrina in her mothers role. Even though Sabrina wasnt biologically tied to her, the warmth Sabrina showered upon Jennie spoke volumes. Jennies affections leaned heavily toward Sabrina, who treated her with kindness and consideration. In comparison, her so-called biological mother, Keilani, appeared as a mere shadow, a distant and inconsequential figure in Jennies world.
Given Jennies intelligence, Keilani accepted that deceiving her wouldnt be easy.
When she heard Jennie compare her with Sabrina, Keilani was angered, and her frustration grew. I understand its hard for you to accept me right now, but you must know that my love for you is genuine. A mothers love is distinct from those who have a hidden agenda. Youre still young, unable to distinguish right from wrong. In this world, nobody showers kindness without a purpose. Only your dad and I will genuinely love you. Youll come to realize that when you are older.

Keilani comforted herself that she was now Jennies supposedly biological mother and could definitely beat Sabrina.
As Jennie looked straight at Keilani, doubts clouded her eyes. Jennie was convinced Sabrina would never treat her nicely with ulterior motives. Tyrone, on the other hand, was cunning, having used Sabrinas affection for her to reconcile with Sabrina.
Jennie squinted her eyes. Keilani, her so-called biological mother who showed up out of the blue and came here to utter these meaningful words, seemed more likely to be the one who treated her nicely with ulterior motives.
Jennie snorted silently. If not for Tyrone being her biological father, she wouldnt even acknowledge Keilani.
Somehow, Keilani couldnt bring herself to meet Jennies gaze, feeling a pang of guilt. How could Jennie have this penetrating gaze?
It was as if she could perceive the truth and see right through her.
Keilani looked away and changed the topic. Ive brought you some snacks. I didnt know what you liked, so I got a mix. Here. Have some.
