My Daughter is a Music Genius

Episode 7

While working at the company, Seong-hyeon Cho couldn’t concentrate properly.

Some had already left the company, and some were because of what happened yesterday.

when I went shopping.

‘I’m not really close with Chaeyoon!’

I said that.

Hearing those words, my heart was pounding, and I was still anxious.

It really shouldn’t be like that, but I wondered if Chaeyoon was being bullied at kindergarten.

What does it mean to say that you are not friendly at all?

Seong-hyung finally sighed.

Then a fellow employee sitting next to him glanced at him.

“Sunghyun, why are you like this today? with an anxious face.”

“Oh, no. It’s not a big deal… I am worried about my daughter.”

“Eh?”

When Jo Sung-hyun said such a thing, the co-workers widened their eyes in amazement.

It was Jo Sung-hyeon who was bewildered by such a reaction.

I didn’t say anything, so why am I so surprised?

“Seonghyun, did you have a daughter?”

“yes? Ah yes.”

“How old are you?”

“Seven years old.”

“OMG… I’m sorry. I didn’t know.”

“No, it’s okay. I don’t think I said anything.”

Jo Sung-hyun shook his head and answered.

But he let out a bitter laugh.

Doesn’t it mean that he was so absorbed in his work that even his co-workers next door didn’t know?

It also means that he didn’t pay that much attention to his daughter.

“So, what’s wrong with your daughter?”

“In kindergarten… I don’t think I’m being bullied. I was shopping together yesterday, and they said that I wasn’t close with kindergarteners.”

“uh… I’ve heard that bullying happens in kindergarten these days, but I’m sure you’ll be fine. If it’s Sunghyun’s child.”

“… Will it?”

“Ah, Seonghyeon, you are handsome. If you’re a daughter, you’re like your father. If you look like Seonghyun, it would be very cute. Would such a child be bullied?”

As if not to worry too much, a co-worker tapped Jo Sung-hyun on the shoulder.

He turned around slowly.

“That’s right, Sunghyun. Maybe the last time… We have Raon.”

“yes. Why is Laon?”

“I was wondering if you were really okay. While taking care of Yumi, I have to take care of Raon as well.”

“I heard that Raon is so kind. I’m fine.”

“thanks. really. Raon said he wanted to see Yumi, so he sang that song… .”

“Gosh. You are suffering.”

So the conversation was cut off.

Jo Sung-hyun, who was still, eventually moved the mouse and searched for ‘kindergarten bullying’ in the portal window.

[Is there bullying in kindergarten? What should parents do?]

[I think my child is being bullied in kindergarten.]

[Child bullying to an increasingly serious level. How to stop it?]

[Children prone to bullying]

[‘I hate going to kindergarten!’ Is my child being bullied?]

[Esther Kang was also bullied in kindergarten? ‘I was bullied for being too ugly.’ confession.]

Seong-hyeon Cho looked at the articles posted on the Internet and closed his eyes.

Kindergarten bullying was more common than I thought, and I was really worried that Chaeyoon might be being bullied.

In the end, he had to deal with the one thing he was pushed back after searching for bullying for a long time.

6 o’clock in the evening.

Jo Sung-hyun got up before anyone else in the office to get ready for work.

“Chief, I will leave work first.”

“Oh, yes. Go in.”

Park Joong-won waved his hand in response.

He didn’t take his eyes off the monitor as if he still had work to do.

* * *

Jo Seong-hyeon went straight to Chae-yoon’s kindergarten.

When he arrived, the kindergarten teacher first found Jo Sung-hyun and bowed his head to greet him.

“hello. father.”

“Yes, teacher. hello. How is Chae-yoon?”

Jo Sung-hyeon started looking for Chae-yoon right away.

Chae-yoon, seen through the window, was sitting in front of the piano today.

Jo Seong-hyeon looked at Chae-yoon, who sat in front of the piano without saying a word for a moment and looked at the keyboard.

“Chaeyoon likes the piano a lot.”

“Yes, he seemed to like not only the piano, but also the instrument itself. Music is the time when I am most active.”

“ah… .”

Jo Sung-hyun made a small noise and nodded, but the kindergarten teacher continued.

“Then, shall we say hello to Chae-yoon and we will go to the director’s office?”

“Yes, you are.”

Seong-hyeon Jo answered right away, and the teacher smiled and went inside the classroom and called Chae-yoon.

Chaeyoon immediately got off the piano chair and turned around.

Her face when looking at Jo Sung-hyun was bright.

Seeing Chae-yoon jumping over and over, Jo Sung-hyun raised the corners of her mouth and gently bent down and spread her arms.

“Dad!”

“yes. daddy is here How was Chae-yoon?”

“yes!”

Chae-yoon answered brightly.

Jo Seong-hyeon stopped when he saw Chae-yoon’s eyes trembling for a moment, who answered brightly.

Are you worried or anxious about something?

Chae-yoon was smiling, but dark emotions flashed through the child’s eyes.

“uh… .”

Behind Jo Sung-hyun, who was still, not knowing what to say.

“Chae Yoon-ah. Teacher and Dad will go to the headmaster’s room for a while. Chae-yoon, please wait here for a little bit.”

At the kindergarten teacher’s words, Chae-yoon looked at Jo Seong-hyeon and the teacher alternately, then nodded her head.

“yes.”

A voice that wasn’t as bright as before.

Feeling as if he was drowsy, Jo Sung-hyun opened his mouth, gently stroking Chae-yoon’s hair so as not to get messy.

“I’ll be here soon.”

“Hehe.”

Chae-yoon immediately smiled with a happy face.

Leaving behind such Chae-yoon, Seong-hyeon Seong headed to the principal’s office with the teacher.

The sofa was placed so that parents could come and consult frequently.

Jo Seong-hyeon sat down on the sofa, and the teacher naturally took a drink from the small refrigerator on one side of the room and handed it to him.

“thank you.”

“If you want more, please tell me.”

“Ah yes. I think this will suffice.”

Jo Sung-hyun answered that, took a sip of the drink and continued the conversation.

“Nothing else. Because of Chae-yoon.”

“Yes Yes.”

“Is Chae Yoon doing well in kindergarten… If anything, is it bullying? I don’t think that’s what happened to me.”

“Oh? Bullying?”

The teacher’s eyes widened in surprise.

A reaction that came up with an unexpected word.

Jo Sung-hyun looked at her quickly.

This is Jo Seong-hyeon, who works in the entertainment industry.

In the entertainment industry, where you had to be smarter than others and be able to read the minds of others clearly to survive, he looked at the teacher’s reaction to determine whether she was responding sincerely.

To be honest, if Chaeyoon is being bullied, it also means that the kindergarten side was neglecting it.

But the teacher seemed genuinely surprised.

“There is no way that Chaeyoon will be bullied. father. How much other kids like Chaeyoon.”

“is that so?”

“Did Chae-yoon say something like that?”

“No, it’s not like that. They say that I am not friendly with kindergarteners.”

“Aha. As your father may know, our Chae-yoon is not a very sociable person. I like being alone.”

“Isn’t that just being bullied or something like that?”

“Absolutely not. If that had happened, we would have told my father first. All the kids are nice… After all, there are no children to be bullied. but.”

It didn’t seem like the teacher was acting, so Jo Seong-hyeon was a little relieved.

However, he had to be nervous once again at the word ‘only’ that appeared at the end.

“Should I say that Chae-yoon is rather rejecting other children? I feel like I don’t want to be close on purpose. The past few days have gotten a little brighter, but in kindergarten, Chaeyoon was originally a quiet child who didn’t say a word. So even the children are a little cautious about talking to Chaeyoon.”

At the teacher’s words, Jo Seong-hyeon gently closed his eyes and then opened them.

Fortunately, I wasn’t bullied or bullied, but it’s not without problems either.

When Chae-yoon said that she rejected other children and did not want to be friends, Jo Sung-hyun felt sorry for her.

It’s not like I’m alone in kindergarten all day, with no friends.

“Uh… .”

After making a small hoarse voice, the teacher spoke carefully.

“Probably… It’s gotten a lot darker since Chaeyoonie happened. It’s an inevitable phenomenon, so I think both father and us should be careful and help Chaeyoon.”

I need to help Chae-yoon.

Seong-hyeon Jo strongly agreed with that statement.

After his wife, Chae-yoon’s mother, died.

Jo Sung-hyun couldn’t do much to Chae-yoon.

It was close to a miracle that Chae-yoon could grow up like this.

He may have refused to go to kindergarten and even refused to talk to people in the first place.

Or, as Cho Seong-hyeon chose, he may have delved into one thing so madly that he didn’t care about the other.

Jo Sung-hyun glanced at the name tag on the teacher’s clothes and opened his mouth.

[Sunnim class Min Eun-jung.]

I felt a little grateful for her.

Of course, as a kindergarten teacher, taking care of children is true, but whether you think of it as a job or not is a different matter.

She genuinely cared for Chae-yoon.

“Miss Eun-Jung Min.”

“Yes, Father.”

“Please take good care of Chaeyoon in the future.”

“Ah yes. father. Do not worry.”

Sensei Min Eun-jung, who answered with a smile, made a small noise while saying “ah,” and got up from her seat.

She rummaged through the bookshelves on one side of the room looking for something, and pulled out a notebook.

Children’s diary.

“This is Chaeyoon’s diary. Originally, I was going to keep it until this fall sports day and share it after publishing one of the best journals I wrote, but I’ll give you Chaeyoon’s diary first.”

“… … .”

“Chae-yoon… I think I like you a lot.”

At those words, Jo Sung-hyun smiled and looked down at the diary.

Then he suddenly raised his head and looked at Min Eun-jung.

“What now… ?”

“I told you that Chaeyoon seems to like her father a lot… ”

“No, before that. Fall sports day?”

“Yes Yes. Our fall sports day next Saturday… Could it be that Chaeyoon didn’t deliver the home correspondence?”

“Wait.”

Jo Sung-hyun immediately took out his smartphone and called his mother.

– “Uh, why?”

“Mom, did Chae-yun have a home correspondence regarding the fall sports day?”

-there is. why? Are you going this time?

Hearing this, Jo Sung-hyun blinked his eyes.

There was nothing to worry about.

Because in this life, I decided to live for Chaeyoon.

“yes. I will go.”
