28. Christmas at the Nursery School (2)

Christmas at the Blue Bird Nursery

“The feeling of running on a sleigh through the white snow~ is refreshing~”

“Ring the bell, ring the bell~”

The sound of Christmas carols and children’s laughter echoed throughout the Bluebird Nursery.

Inside, the Christmas trees and decorations that the children had decorated with all their heart were sparkling, and the children sat huddled together and wrote Christmas cards.

Director Anna Kang drew attention to the children.

“Now, pay attention! Everyone, today is a Merry Christmas. As it is a special day, we will make the food we will eat today.”

“Wow, it’s fun.”

At Anna Kang’s words, the children were excited and clapped and ran wild.

Christmas special cooking time to make with children.

Volunteers circulated around the area, helping the children prepare ingredients when they asked for help, and, if possible, allowing the children to take the initiative in cooking.

Most of them were cooked with an easy-to-use meal kit, so even children could cook them in a fun and easy way.

“Now shall we eat?”

“Wow, it looks delicious~”

The finished tteokbokki, spaghetti, pizza, etc. were shared with the volunteers and the children, and the children and the volunteers became closer.

“Ah~ I’m full.”

“It was so delicious.”

The children patted their chubby stomachs and were satisfied with the food they made.

“Now, what shall we do next? Who can guess?”

“It’s Anna Mom!! A Christmas present!”

“Ding dong deng~~!!! Our Hyunmin is smart. This is the Christmas present you’ve been waiting for the most. Everyone, teacher Kyu-ha and teacher Winter picked the presents themselves.”

“Wow, teacher Gyuha, teacher Winter is the best~~~!!! I love you!”

“Then, shall we invite teacher Kyu-ha and teacher Winter? Applause everyone.”

“Clap clap clap.”

Kyu-ha and Winter went forward, receiving the children’s expectant eyes.

In Kyu-ha’s hand, at a glance, there was a huge gift bag, and the children’s eyes followed the bag.

“Everyone~ Don’t you know how hard it was for me and Kyuha oppa to pick out presents for you guys? I believe that you will like it that much and I will call you one by one, so you just have to come forward and receive the present. Got it?”

Scarily after the words of winter were over, the children answered in unison as if they had become a choir.

“Yes!!!!”

“Now, first of all, Hyunmin. And Yeseul and Minguk come out and get the presents.”

The children accepted the presents in order, absolutely obeying the words of winter, to the point of wondering if they were originally this orderly.

“Wow! Resin art making set! It was something I really wanted.”

“Oh crazy! It’s a Yu-Gi-Oh card set.”

The children who received the gifts expressed their joy by jumping around on the spot when the gifts they wanted so much came out like tweezers.

I went through all kinds of hardships in Uijeongbu, but I felt proud when I saw that the children loved it so much.

“Hey guys, say hello to teacher Kyuha and teacher Winter, who gave you a present.”

“Thank you sir.”

It was cute and funny to see the children stand up as a group and greet their clumsy belly button, which made the volunteers burst into laughter.

After the gift presentation ceremony, which was filled with laughter, the children went to bed early, probably tired from doing too much today.

Winter and Seol-ah went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, and Kyu-ha and director Kang Anna organized the messy things together and talked about this and that.

“Isn’t it difficult for Director Kang to take care of the children alone?”

Kyu-Ha thought that Director Kang Anna had so many things to do and that it was difficult because she took care of each child carefully.

From the overall operation of the nursery school to the care of the children as an elderly woman alone. No matter how much the volunteers said they would help on a regular basis, it couldn’t have been difficult.

Kang Anna straightened her back for a moment and looked at Kyuha with warm eyes.

“It is not difficult at all. Because I think of my children as a gift from God. Was there anyone who had a hard time receiving a gift? hahahaha, and you may not know it, but I’m not raising these kids, they’re actually raising me.”

Director Kang Anna, who spoke like a Seon dialogue, added the last words.

“That is why raising children is not hard work, but my life itself.”

Kyu-ha had no choice but to acknowledge Director Kang Anna. It was because even though she had lived a lot of life through dreams, it was rare to see a woman with conviction like Kang Anna.

From Kyu-ha’s point of view, the life of sacrifice was gloomy and unpleasant, so it was an infinitely sad life.

However, director Anna Kang was different.

He himself looked at her as a sacrifice, but Anna Kang speaks of devotion.

Sacrifice (犧牲) brings sorrow, but dedication (獻身) can also bring joy and happiness.

Of course, I don’t understand everything, but this in itself was a surprising change for Gyuha.

“And thinking that those kids can grow up to be great people like Kyu-ha gives me more strength, right?”

“They will become better people than I am. You met someone like Director Kang Anna. I will work harder so that I can set an example for the children.”

“Hohot Kyuha is doing well enough. Seeing that the kids are only looking for Gyuha.”

At the same time, Kyu-ha and Director Kang Anna-na were having a deep conversation.

In the kitchen, Midgeoreum and Jeong Seol-ah were talking while washing dishes piled up like a mountain.

clatter clatter

Mid-gyeol and Jeong Seol-ah did volunteer work together and talked about it from time to time.

“No, that’s why the manager brother…… did that.”

“really? hahahahaha, that’s really funny.”

The two giggled at each other while washing the dishes.

“But do you feel it too? That Kyuha oppa is something special.”

Then Winter suddenly changed the topic of conversation and asked about Kyu-Ha.

Seol-ah paused slightly, but continued washing the dishes as if nothing happened.

“Gyuha brother? definitely not special that saved my life Of course, that’s not all… how did you and Gyu-ha meet in winter?”

“Me? Should we say that we met like fate? Now that I think about it, it’s a strange relationship.”

Seol-ah was a little bit annoyed by the words ‘us’ and ‘destiny’, but she urged winter because she was more curious.

“So what? How did you meet?”

“Um… the first time was when I first came to this nursery school with my mother.”

Winter’s eyes became hazy as if he recalled that day.

“My first impression was strong.”

From the memory of Kyu-ha playing the grass flute just in time when we came to the playground following the guidance of director Kang Anna, and falling in love with Kyu-ha’s grass flute as if possessed by something, to asking Kyu-ha for a song of love, and to Yoo Hee-jun’s Appearing together at a music camp, and above all, protecting yourself recently.

‘Come to think of it, there’s only one thing I’m thankful for to my real brother.’

“I’m envious that you and Kyuha oppa have a lot of memories.. no, I hope. I want to get closer too, but something is difficult.”

“Well, Kyuha oppa is not an easy style. It seems kind, but it is difficult for some reason.”

“Is it right? Isn’t it just me? Should I say a little charismatic? He doesn’t say much, but he has a strange atmosphere.”

“As expected, my sister looks at people accurately. That brother is a very scary brother. Huh.”

Winter, who briefly forgot to keep the incident in Uijeongbu a secret between the two of them, covered her mouth.

“Anyway, one thing’s for sure, he’s a good older brother. Very versatile and very attractive.”

“That’s right. First of all, you saved my life, so I get 100 points kyahahahaha.”

At this time, Winter and Seol-ah each had the same thought in their hearts.

‘There is no relationship yet. It’s worth it.’

However, the two finished washing the remaining dishes laughing hohohoho without revealing their inner feelings.

Just in time, director Anna Kang and Kyu-ha appeared and helped clean up the kitchen, ending the day’s schedule.

“You worked so hard today. I’m going to finish some paperwork up there, so everyone go have a cup of tea.”

“Yes, then let’s have a simple cup of tea and we’ll go in too. Director, you have worked so hard.”

So Director Kang Anna went up to the office and the remaining three people sat at the table.

“The two of you have worked hard, so sit here. Are you going to drink milk tea in winter? What would you like to drink, Seol-ah? Green tea, black tea, Americano, everything.”

“Um…then I’ll have a cup of green tea.”

“okay. Hang in there.”

Gyu-ha, who went back into the kitchen, quickly brewed milk tea, green tea, and black tea each and put them on the table.

“Slurp. I’m going to live a little longer~ It’s all over, so I’m tired.”

“Guys, did you have a hard time? You worked so hard today.”

Seol-ah shook her head and said.

“no. It was so fun and enjoyable. It will be an unforgettable Christmas in my life. Thanks for calling. Gyuha’s older brother.”

“Is there anything I can do or not call you? Seol-ah, I thank you for being good to me. By the way, when is your next project coming out?”

“I think my next project will be in about 4 months! It’s not the lead role, but it’s Shim Eun-kyung’s work, so the supporting characters are also very attractive, right? I am so looking forward to it.”

“yes? That’s great. Now that the next project is going on, it will be really busy.”

When Kyu-ha and Seol-ah created a warm atmosphere, winter changed the atmosphere, as if they didn’t like it.

“By the way, oppa, what is your schedule going forward? Are you also preparing for your next project?”

Jeong Seol-ah was also curious about this part, and both women stared at Kyu-ha.

If you’re a normal man, you’d be taken aback at the situation where two incredibly beautiful women were staring at you, but Kyu-ha calmly responded with a calm smile.

“My next project is not yet, and I think I will probably go to the competition.”

Winter and Seol-ah didn’t understand what the man was talking about, so they asked back.

“Competition? acting contest? Sister, is there an acting contest?”

“no? There is nothing other than an awards ceremony. But you call the awards ceremony a competition?”

“Oh~! Are you talking about the awards ceremony? I again.”

Kyu-ha realized that he spoke too incoherently and corrected it again.

“ah! I do attend awards ceremonies, but this time I decided to go to the International Snow Sculpture Contest. The purpose is good, and I can donate for children with incurable diseases, so it happened that way.”

“Hey, great.”
