Baby Love - A Hakuouki Fan Fiction

Chapter 06

This is all your fault, Aoi! Miyuki fumes but kept a calm demeanour.

Earlier, inside the restaurant, while she was busy dozing off the man she has developed a crush sat opposite of her-Shinpachi. She had little to no experience when it came to men and her father made sure of it. As quickly as her feelings evoked, the woman beside him dragged Miyuki off of her pedestal.

So, he was more of a lady's man similar to his best friend. Birds always flock together. But that was the least of Miyuki's worry, she was exhausted from searching for multiple job enquiries, her rent apartment by now, outstanding. Her notion of self-sufficiency flung out of the window.

Once again, tears pricked behind her eyelids as she storms out of the restaurant living behind the big baffoon with his whiny lady, although, Miyuki was irritated by herself as well. They weren't on speaking terms, the man occasionally exhibits his sour mood to anyone. But her continual stop to borrow their Wi-Fi, eating their meal and mostly, basking under their presence her heart and soul had latched onto him.

Nakagura Shinpachi at first glance gave off an intimidating aura because of his height, robust frame; piercing cerulean-blue orbs. His baritone voice causes many females to turn their attention to him. The boss of the restaurant knows his plan was working by hiring them to work frontline.

As for now, Miyuki remained immovable by the restaurant's garden. The argument with Aoi, accumulating stress for cash and fear of returning home without accomplishing her ambitions. Clutching onto the purse strap, she hesitantly eyes Shinpachi dismissing the woman by his side.

"Miyuki," Aoi entwined their fingers tugging her towards the entrance.

"Aoi, wait," Miyuki glances at her tall friend before returning her gaze to focus on the troubled looking male. "Y-you want me to take care of your child?"

He has a wife! Miyuki's heart plummetted but at the same time, frowns in disgust that he might be cheating on the poor missus.

"Yes, I take it you wish to become a teacher for young children?" Shinpachi's striking stare pinning her.

"Well, yes, I am here to attend a school if possible, to gain a certificate to one day, have my daycare," Miyuki announces to anyone within hearing range.

"I am on a desperate hunt for a reliable babysitter and you are the person for me," he spoke in an earnest voice, meanwhile, Miyuki experiences a warm pool building inside her gut.

"Oh," she whispers in reply, on the other hand, her good friend was gaping at the pair, swivelling her head back and forth.

"It will be a great help to him," a new voice interferes.

Harada ambles forward, he has a thoughtful expression but a smile to ease that look. He momentarily glimpses at his friend before focusing on her. Once and for all, Miyuki felt her spirit rising again. This could be a hint for her. She looks up at Aoi, who nodded in silent encouragement.

"Alright then," Miyuki accepted the offer. "Is there a paper to sign or interview?"

"Screw interview," he grumbled, the babe in his arms snuggling comfortably. "I trust my gut instinct, you seem harmless."

"Okay," she nodded slowly in response, her eyes not leaving the tiny bundle. "I'll see you in the upcoming week-"

"Tomorrow will be the official date," he cut off her sentence.
