Chapter 3

Third Person's POV

It didn't take long for morning to come. The soft rays of the sun reflected on Akaashi's chubby cheeks. He slowly opened his eyes, squinting at the brightness. He rolled away to the other side, away from the light with a long groan. He closed his eyes once more, but they completely flew open when he remembered what was gonna happen today.

Snapping his head to his nightstand, he cursed mentally when the time read 7:20. What happened that he woke up so late? usually he would be up at 5:00. Right, he woke up at 3 by dawn because of Aito, though, there was no reason to, his mom was always there.

Keiji's POV

I need to stop thinking. I shook my head and stood up from my bed. Before I went to bathe myself, I tidied my bed and proceeded to go straight towards the bathroom. By the time I finished my bath and changing to a new set of clothes, my mom called me from outside "Keiji, are you finished? I'm about to leave!" I hurried myself. I didn't even bother brushing my hair since somehow it was messy and curled up just how I wanted it. Besides, Bokuto-san likes my hair like this...

Once again, I snapped out of the thoughts, hastily standing up from my vanity chair and going downstairs. Mom was pacing from room to room and gathering her stuff in one place. "Good morning Mom" I mumbled out. She stopped walking and looked towards me "Good morning Keiji sweetie" She greeted with a smile.

"Sorry, I haven't made breakfast yet, I was suddenly busy." She said and rubbed her nape. I cocked a brow as I looked closely on her makeup. I stepped closer to my mom, adjusting her fake lash by her right eye that was barely hanging. She was about my height, so it didn't trouble me "It was barely hanging"

"Thanks baby" She said with a grin but then blinked when her phone vibrated by her pockets. "Can you check Aito-kun? I'm gonna pick this up" She requested "Of course" I replied, heading towards the stairs and towards the baby's nursery.

When I reached the room, his windows were already open, letting the wind and light circulate his baby blue colored room. The transparent blue curtains dancing with the wind. By the center was his beige colored crib. I was expecting to see a sleeping figure but saw Aito already wide awake.

He stared back at me with his baby blue doe eyes. He was wearing this baby blue jumper that brought out his blue orbs. His raven hair was disheveled with style. His mouth was formed to an O shape as he stared at me with a curious gaze. My heart fluttered at the beautiful and heart clenching sight.

With a soft smile displayed on my lips, I bent down and carefully picked my nephew from his bed and made our way downstairs. "Ah! Good morning, Good morning Aito-kun!" Mom greeted with a high pitched voice the moment she laid her eyes on him.

Aito just stared at her. Mom chuckled and flickered her eyes towards me and the baby "I just now realized how you two look exactly the same" She told with shock laced in her tone. I chuckled at the shocked expression. The baby was still quiet with a curious gaze.

Mom sighed with a smile "Aito-kun never smiled, right?" I nodded my head. Ever since he had arrived, he never laughed or smiled. He would cry or keep quiet most of the time, but let me tell you, he is literally a calm and behaved baby. It was nice at first but now that I think about it, it's sad because it makes you think that he has never been happy.

I snapped out of my thoughts when we heard the door bell rang through out the house. Mom smiled "That must be the nanny" She said and went towards the door. She opened it and I saw this woman by her twenties. She has a lean form, slightly shorter than me.

Her hair is neck-length and she wore a cream colored dress that reached her knees. Her eyes were the same color of her hair, grey. A soft smile on her face. She bowed "Good morning" She spoke softly. Mom grinned "Good morning darling, come in" She invited.
