🕊 Chapter Two: Prologue Pt. Two: Daycare 🕊

🕊🕊🕊

"Alaina! Sweetheart, wake up!"

Alaina stirred in her sleep, eyes blinded by the light of her room. She groaned and rolled over, burying her head under her pillow.

Miki smiled and pulled the covers off of her tiny body, exposing her to the chilly morning air. "Come on! I have breakfast ready."

Alaina groggily sat up, swinging her legs over the side of the bed. She made her way downstairs and sat at the table where a plate of eggs, bacon, and hashbrowns sat before her. She picked up her fork and pressed her hands together, bowing her head. "Thank you!"

Miki smiled as she dug into her food like the day before. The weather had cleared up nicely, the pavement was still drying but it was nice and sunny out.

"Hurry and eat, Alaina, the children are almost here and you still need to shower."

Alaina swallowed the bite of food, looking over at her new caretaker. "I do? I took a bath yesterday."

Miki walked over and placed a napkin in her lap, brushing back a strand of her bangs. "Yes, but you were quite cold when you arrived. I just want to make sure you won't get sick."

Alaina took another bite of her food, swallowing. "Okay..."

The woman brushed her bangs out of her eyes again, but they fell back. "Geez did Mari ever take care of you?" She scoffed and retreated her hand, "Alright, once you're finished take your shower so I can fix your hair. There's a change of clothes for you already in there."

After a few minutes, Alaina was done with her breakfast and went to take a shower after handing her plate to Miki to be washed. She walked into the bathroom and there on the counter was a dark navy blue dress and a white collard long-sleeve with frilly white socks and black shoes. On top of the pile sat a bright yellow sticky note.

'I went shopping early this morning so you could have something that fit during daycare. :) <3'

- Miki.

Alaina showered quickly and got dressed, excited to be able to change into such nice clothes. All she wore at the orphanage were old T-shirts and bottoms Ms. Nori got from goodwill.

She slipped on the shirt and pulled the dress over her head, adjusting the straps. She took the white socks and slipped them on along with the black mary janes, fastening the tiny buckle on the sides.

She walked out of the bathroom, feeling better about herself compared to the entire time she's been with Ms. Noris.

She walked down the stairs and twirled around. Miki smiled and giggled, "Do you like it? I was in a bit of a rush to get back so I wasn't sure I got the right size. Look like I got it just right!"

Alaina smiled, cheeks tinted red, "Yep! I like it!"

Miki laughed, "I'm glad!" She walked over to the table and pulled out a chair, "Come sit here, sweetheart. I'll freshen up your hair."

Alaina nodded her head and gleefully made her way over to the wooden chair a tad too short for her to normally sin into. Miki came back with a towel, a pair of scissors, and a comb. "This won't take too long. I'll just do a trim."

Alaina sat there patiently as Miki cut her hair. She had to be told to sit still a few times but was overall well behaved.

"Aaaand... Done!"
