After confirming my daughter had some lacerations over knees and nothing else, I assured my wife, "Maybe they're just trying to tell you what happened."
****************************
That evening, when I was back home, my wife looked at me in a funny manner, "Guess what the school was calling us for ?"
"Eh ...?" I was at a lost.
"Well, she told me what happened of course, but that's not the main point," Vivian said, "The teacher was curious that our daughter didn't cry when she was obviously hurt - she just looked upset."
"Didn't she cry at all ?" I was equally incredulous.
"No, of course," my wife went on, "Her tears came like fountain as soon as she saw me - she was just saving her emotion for a better target !"
