A Chapter With Him {Portgas D. Ace}

||10||

The smell of coffee filled the air as I watched the sunshine through the window. Right now, I am preparing for the day ahead because I could not sleep even for just a bit.

I wondered here and there, thinking of what I could do to past the time then I felt hungry so I decided on just a cup of coffee right now.

Months had passed by and there was still no signs of him, though I know he's been doing alright because of the newspaper everynow and then.

It's not that I'm waiting for him or something.

I decided not to think of it too much and looked at the time. It's already 7 o'clock, so maybe the kids are awake and outside by now.

I quickly fixed my stuff and washed the materials that I used since last night and slightly cleaned the living room and by the time I finished, there was a knock followed by some inaudible noises.

"(Y/n)-nee are you awready awake?"

"Ohayou!"

"Nee-chan wet's goo"

It was the kids, so I put the last piece of pillow down the sofa and fixed my dress whilst looking at the mirror. I looked around and found everything in it's own place, so I finally opened the door before they disturb more people with their noise.

"Good morning everyone!" I smiled and high-fived them one by one after I shut the door behind.

"What should we do for today?" I added and walk with them along the road.

"Letz go ice cweam" the little one said and ran to the shop where the vendor is still setting up the props for the day.

"It's too early for ice cream though" I replied and he stopped with 'awss' heard by them, one by one, again.

"Hehehe, maybe later? Is that good?" I announced and pointed a finger or something just to brighten up the mood then they said 'yays' and proceeded to walk, or more like run.

"Good morning (Y/n)! Thanks for caring for the kids as usual" an auntie said as we passed her by and we bowed down to her,

"Good morning!" We all said in unison then continued to walk down the road towards where our feet led us.

By the time we stopped without noticing, we were in front of the bay.

"Wet's swim!" they screamed in laughter as they said that one by one, and as they did they slowly took off their clothes leaving their undies on.

"Wait you guys, We've no permission to go swimming for today!" I mentally screamed when they were finally soaked under the sun and enjoying to their hearts content.

Well, nothing wrong's gonna happen if I watch them close enough.

"Or I just go and have fun with them to freshen myself up!" I took off my top leaving me with my laced underwear and run towards them

"(Y/n)'s coming!!" they screamed started spreading out like I was the it in a game suddenly.

"Oh I am so in at this" I muttered and when I reached the water I started running after them, of course, slow running because I'm playing with kids and where's the fun if I reach them so sudden.
