「 006. a not so foolproof plan and a new name 」
A week had passed since the group had found the baby and had a sleepover at Rhea's house and everything fell into chaos.
The following day after finding the baby, the group had finally come up with a plan to handle the real baby after about an hour of bickering. The plan was to rotate who would take care of the baby based on the free periods everyone had. First, was AJ (not because he had a free period but because he always skipped his first period), then was Nova, and Sage, and so on. The plan actually worked for a little while.
But after the week had passed, that plan had fallen apart. Cyprus had forgotten his shift and left the baby all alone for a full hour and when Rhea had found the baby wailing with a diaper that obviously needed to have been changed a long time ago, it lead to another huge argument and the plan changed once again.
AJ was now reluctantly holding the baby in his arms, a look of huge discomfort on his face as Rhea lectured him on how to take care of the baby. They were in the back of the school, away from any peering eyes of the other students.
"Remember, if she cries it's either because she's hungry, she needs to be changed, or she's cranky. You have all of her stuff and I know I need to get some more clothes and stuff-"
AJ sighed loudly and placed his hand over Rhea's mouth, which caused the Korean girl to frown. "I already took care of this thing before, geez. Chill out." He says.
"Don't call her a 'thing', she's a human being," Rhea reminds him. Then her focus turns to the small baby who was currently sleeping in AJ's arms. A small smile graces Rhea's features and she kisses the baby on her forehead before waving goodbye. "I have to get to class. And remember, if anything happens to her, I will kick your you know what."
AJ rolled his eyes. "You mean ass?" He nearly laughed at Rhea's baffled reaction. "Just say the word, babies can't understand anything at this age."
"Still, we don't want to be a bad example. We also have to name her so..." She paused and the two fell into an awkward silence.
