"thank you so much! i promise i won't let you down!" i call through the phone.

"your first job is next week, please be prepared. i'll send you the address and information about the child to you. you will meet with their parents 3 days from now, understand?"

"meet with their parents 3 days from now, got it!"

"amazing, i hope you have fun on your first job as a babysitter."

"thank you, ms rin, i'll try my best!"

"i'm sure you will, bye now," she says before hanging up.

my first job as a babysitter, how hard could it be? all i had to do was take care of a kid until their parents get home. easy as that.

my phone buzzes in my hand, signaling i got a notification. checking it, i realise it's the address and information about the child i'll be babysitting. i notice that the address is only about 5 minutes away from my house by walking.

3 days until i'll meet his parents... i need to make a good impression...

saving the address in my phone, i walk downstairs, out my room to fetch myself some food. i'm pretty hungry.

opening my top draw, i reach for some instant noodle packets and begin opening the packet. walking over to the kettle i start to boil some water as i begin opening the flavor sachets and pouring them into my small noodle bowl thing.

as i'm waiting for my water to boil my door bell rings. i wasn't expecting anyone today, so out of curiosity i walk towards the door and peek through the eye hole. i see nothing.

thinking it was just in my head, i turn to go back into the kitchen when i hear a small voice.

"helloooo?" it called "is anyone home?"

turning towards the door i swing it open to reveal 2 small boys, one with messy, dark brown hair and the other with slightly longer, messy brown hair.

"hello gentlemen, can i help you?" i ask still questioning in my head where their parents were. i recognised one kid, the one with light brown hair as my next door neighbors son, bobata kun. although he prefers it when i call him kazuma chan.

"y/n onee chan! i missed you!~ i haven't seen you in ages!" he exclaims

the kid next to him looks up at me with big eyes.

'he's adorable-'

"kazuma chan, who's this next to you? is this your friend?"

he nods his head "this is takeharu chan, my friend from kindergarten." he says proudly.

"n-nice to meet you, y/n onee chan!" he says smiling at me.

i smile back "nice to meet you too take chan,"

"ehhh, why'd you give him a nickname? that's not fair i want one too! onee chan give me one too!" bobata whines

"she probably gave me one cause she likes me better," he says smugly, smirking at him.

'how do kids these days even do that at this age-'

bobata glares at him

"that's not true! onee chan likes me better! she's known me for longer! right onee chan?"

"that's not true! onee chan likes me better! she's known me for longer! right onee chan?"
