Q-Eng

Yesterday, while waiting for the train at my station, I saw two little boys and a young man.

The three were wearing the same T-shirt and shoes.

The boys looked to be about three and five years old, respectively.

At first, of course, I thought the man was their father.

However, overhearing their conversation, I started wondering if he really was.

He talked to the boys so gently and thoughtfully.

When one of the boys went too close to the edge of the platform, of course he told the kid to come back to the safer area, but he never had an angry or commanding tone.

He looked to me more like a babysitter than a father.

The kids asked him to take a picture of them in front of a train and posed like heroes ready to fight villains.

They were so cute that I couldn't help but smile

The man took a picture with his phone.

One of the boys said to him, "Daddy, my shoelace is untied."

I didn't miss the word "Daddy."

He was their father after all.

The three looked very peaceful and happy.

I was a little surprised because I had never seen such a nice father before.
