When I arrived at the kindergarten, the event had already started.
The playground was filled with a mix of shouts from both adults and children.
"What are they competing in now? The family race hasn't started yet, has it?" I asked.
"It has started. This is the family race." The teacher answered.
Due to a last-minute meeting at work, I was late for the family event of my son, Nick Reed.
My husband, Isaac Reed, had called me twice, and his tone wasn't pleasant.
He said, "Emma, if you can't make it on time, then don't bother coming at all."
It seemed Isaac had forgotten that ever since Nick started kindergarten, I had been the one accompanying our son to most of activities.
As for Isaac, he was either too busy with work or traveling for business.
This time, for the first time ever, he decided to join Nick for the family event, which caught me off guard. I thought he wanted to make an effort for our family.
But when I saw the scene before me, I realized Isaac had no intention of mending things with me.
Instead, he wanted to use this family day to play the role of a loving couple with his long-lost love, Lucy Martin.
On the playground, Isaac had swapped his usual suit for sportswear.
He and Lucy were walking from one end to the other with a balloon between their heads.
The balloon nearly fell, and Isaac quickly reached out to steady Lucy by the waist, pulling her slightly towards him.
Nick stood at the finish line, his little face flushed, cheering, "Go, go!"
Compared to the cheering crowd, I was utterly silent.
Isaac's group won first place, and Nick joyfully leaped into Isaac's arms.
Isaac bent down to pick Nick up, whispering something to him.
Lucy gently wiped the sweat off Isaac's forehead, and then Nick pointed to Lucy's face.
In the next moment, Isaac kissed Lucy on the cheek.
Nick clapped his hands with a smile, and Lucy shyly lowered her head.
Isaac looked at her with eyes brimming with love.
The scene was the perfect picture of a happy family.
