Chapter 29

Everyone wanted to give Sally a hug and a kiss at first sight because of her sweet face and lovely appearance. She was anything but ugly or disgusting. She was always getting accolades as a child. Sally sobbed and clung closer to Charlene as she heard someone utter anything so upsetting for the first time. "Oh, Sally, you're not disgusting," Charlene soothed her, holding her in a reassuring embrace. You're sweet and gorgeous. You see that yourself, don't you?When Sally heard it, her mood improved. Jasmine had not spoken until she noticed Charlene still holding Sally and complimenting her, causing her eyes to fill up with tears.

"You...I, I no longer like you. You shouldn't be my mother. Jasmine tried to flee after that, but Charlene swiftly dragged her back. The angry remarks took Charlene by surprise. She was angry, but she didn't want to humiliate Jasmine by reprimanding her in public. "Let's not be angry now..." Charlene said as she held her close and kissed her. Jasmine was furious, but once Charlene kissed her, her rage was cut in half, and she felt even more resentment."Then... you can't hug her anymore or say she's cute!" she sobbed.

Jasmine was jealous, Charlene knew. She found it amusing. Jasmine pretended that she didn't want Charlene to be her mother, but it was intolerable to see someone else get her love. Charlene separated the two kids from the throng and gave Jasmine another kiss to calm her down without making any promises. Jasmine grabbed the opportunity and shoved Sally from Charlene's hug. Sally was friendly. She did not have the same possessiveness with Charlene, despite her fondness for her. Additionally, Jasmine gave off an ominous vibe, which scared Sally.

Charlene held Jasmine and said softly, "I know you think you're cool, and that's great, Minnie. However, one's perception of beauty is subjective. While some people favor sweetness and softness, others may like a ferocious, tomboyish appeal. Because someone's taste is different from yours, you cannot offend them. Please, let's respect each person's aesthetics and tastes. Charlene was aware of her daughter's extraordinary intelligence. For Jasmine, things that may be confusing to other kids were simple. Jasmine comprehended. Although she was aware that her actions were inappropriate, she couldn't stand to see Charlene show affection to other children.Charlene pouted and used a handkerchief to gently wipe away her tears.

"As long as we grow from our errors, it's acceptable to make them. But please, we can't speak to people in that manner ever again." Jasmine's attitude improved as she sensed Charlene's generosity, and she nodded and sniffed, "I see." With a grin and a peck on her cheek, Charlene said to Sally, "This is my daughter, Minnie. She acknowledges her error. Are you able to pardon her? Sally was hesitant about Jasmine at first, but Charlene's kindness won her over, and she nodded dutifully. "Sure, I can forgive her."

Charlene grinned and responded, "Thank you, Sally," before turning to face her daughter and asking, "Minnie, what should you say?" Jasmine raised her head from Charlene's hug. "I'm sorry." Shyly, Sally blushed and said, "It's... it's okay." Charlene took the two kids to the classroom, sighing with satisfaction that the problem had been fixed. After the instructor removed Sally, Charlene knelt down and spoke softly to her daughter. "Everything is good now. "Are we going to enter the classroom?" Jasmine wasn't too timid or ashamed to go into the classroom, and she wasn't bothered by the previous ruckus or the fact that she had been the center of attention for all the wrong reasons.
