As previous years, we were at KTC’s annual Children Christmas Fun Fare yesterday. This year, there was a slight twist to the occasion, a girl whom Alec met last year at the KTC.
When we got there, while mom was purchasing entry tickets for Alec and his cousins, the girl with her mom was at the counter debating whether the girl could go to the fare on her own while the mother attend to her other chores away from the club. The girl did not want to go on her own, but the lady at the counter told her that Alec would also be there. So she agreed to stay and accompany Alec.
When the fare started, I saw Alec and the girl were holding hands. During the fare, Alec was moving from one game counter to another while the girl was following him all over and they chatted quite a bit. At one time I saw the girl had curled her arm around Alec’s just like an adult couple would do and they smiled and talked more.
During the second half of the fare where they were serving sandwiches, chips, and drinks, I guess the girl got too hungry and tired and wanted to have something to eat. Yet Alec still wanted to go for the games and tried to get some more prizes. So the girl asked me to get her a seat. When I showed her a seat, she immediately grabbed another one next to her’s and told me that one was for Alec and asked me to put Alec’s tea set on that seat.
Although we went separate ways home afterwards, the entire experience was probably sweeter for me to have watched than Alec felt about it in which I even forgot to take their handholding pictures. ^_^
