The Perfect Babysitter (Cole Sprouse)

Chapter 2

VANESSA'S POV

I was in my room when all of a sudden I hear my mom call my name. When I came downstairs I saw that she was in the kitchen with my dad.

-"We want to talk with you mija" said dad

oh no, what did I do now.

-"Sure, what's up?" I said with a nervous smile.

-"We wanted to let you know we will have to leave the city for something of work" said dad

-"Now where are you going?" I said relieved that it wasn't to get me in trouble for something I did.

-"We're going to New York mija" said mom

-"Thats amazing! Why are you so sad and serious about it?" I said with a confused look on my face. Why would they be so sad about going to New York?!

-"Its because we are leaving for 4 months" dad responded.

4 MONTHS?! They've never left for that long!

-"Oh! Thats a long time" I said

-"We know. That's why we got a babysitter to take care of you for those 4 months" said mom

-"WHAT?! Are you two crazy? I know how to take care of myself. I've been taking care of myself since I was 13!" I told them.

-"We know you know how to take care of yourself. But you haven't been alone for such a long time" said dad

-"We just want to know you're safe while we are gone" said mom

-"Well I'm not going to let you get me a babysitter" I said crossing my arms.

-"Well too bad señorita. We have decided already and your babysitter will be here tomorrow to get a tour of the house. We will leave this weekend" said dad.

Damn, when my dad calls me "señorita" is because he is getting mad.

After that I said nothing else and went up to my bedroom. After like 3 hours, my mom calls me to go eat dinner.

-"Mija, come eat" my mom says

I sat at the table and started eating,

-"Hey, I know you're not happy about having a babysitter but please understand. We don't want you to be alone for such a long time." said dad.

I couldn't argue with him so while I was in my room I started to get the idea of having a babysitter for 4 months. There isn't much I could do anyways.

-"its fine dad, I think I can live with that" I said

-"Okay then, Like I said he will be here tomorrow to get to know the house" he said

-"Right. But I won't be here, I have school" I said.

-"Its okay, we'll show him around" he said.

When I finished eating I got up and took my plate to the sink and went to go brush my teeth to sleep since tomorrow I have school to go to.

I'm going to be honest with you I am a little embarrassed that my friends would know I was going to have a babysitter, even though they didn't know yet.

After thinking for a long time, I fell deeply asleep.
