introductions

"AND WHATS YOUR NAME!?" the thing yelled.

He was bent down to my level and his knees were tucked into his stomach. His heels were off the floor and he was balancing on only the front of his feet.

I winced my face and put my hands over my ears. His voice would not get any quieter and it made the ringing in my ears increase slowly.

It seemed he took note of this because of the small gasp of realization that came from him.

"New friend, Im sorry. I didn't mean to hurt your ears." he said with a down tone. it was obvious the animatronic was upset with himself and was sorry.

"Oh uh it's alright man, i just got sensitive ears and it gives me a headache sometimes..." i said trying to make the situation less awkward.

the silence could not grow any louder and the whirring from inside his machine body was becoming the only audible thing. My eyes glared around the daycare and I tried not to make eye contact with the thing despite him being inches away from me.

"Oh! I'm y/n by the way," I answered, "I'll be running the daycare with you!"

His head perked and his small smile grew wider. His machines inside became a little louder and somehow, I could tell he became excited.

"AhH, a new daycare assistant?! What happed to the one a few days ago??" He said suddenly confused.

'a few days ago, jeez what made them leave???' i thought to myself.

"i'm not sure... But HEY it's me now so yeah..." I kept trying to make the situation normal. He looked away and his brows furrowed. His attention strayed from me and he put his hand on his chin. Whatever I brought up must've made him down.

I left him with his thoughts and began walking around the cute daycare. The play structures were colorful and fun and the mats were soft and springy.

'How is he able to run this place by himself most of the time?' i thought.

'he must be good at his job if there's a statue of him in the front along with posters..'

on the empty spaces of the floor were blank pages presumably left out for coloring. Boxes were stacked made of tin and crayons were scattered everywhere.

There was also a sticky colorful substance on the floor that seemed to shine a bit. Upon further inspection you could clearly see it was glitter glue.

I began turning to look around and started stepping back to take it all in. The place was ginormous and amazing. The whole building itself was just gorgeous. That's when suddenly i backed into the stacked tin boxes.

CRASH

The mechanical whirs came to a halt and I looked over to the Animatronic. His eyes came in contact with the mess and I already knew what would happen.

"Oh what a mess! Clean up, Clean up!" He exclaimed.

The robot stood up straight and that's when it hit me how tall he really was. He stood at what seemed to be 7 feet tall which was well above my height. Sure I wasnt super small but of course I wasnt 7 foot.

He walked over to me and slammed his foot down. He sassily put his hand on his hip and folded his arms.

"NEW FRIEND! This is NOT acceptable day care behavior! I will not let you do as you please here! This is a professional environment and I EXpeCt you to understand that!!" He said in a way that didn't seem mad, but it was obvious he was trying his hardest.

"Now, clean up the crayon boxes!!" He exclaimed, "if you can't keep up in this daycare today then i'll have you removed from this position." he said for the first time sounding serious.

it seemed a deeper voice came from inside him. One that wasn't himself. But how would I know that.

"Got that?" he said snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Oh- Yeah yeah." I said a bit intimidated.

"Now! a few more minutes and the kiddies will be here!!" He said quickly switching his moods.

i checked the clock and it'd already been 6:30. time had gone fast and I wasn't really ready for my first day of work.

I began to pick up the "mess" I had made and started putting the scattered crayons back into their boxes. After that Id done more to pick up the place such as stack papers, fold blankets, get toys together and more.

"attention staff, one minute till opening!" read a loud voice.

I focused my attention on the entrance and readied myself for the chaos about to begin.

'cant be too bad right?'

Behind me, the robot tapped my shoulder and I turned to look at him. I tilted my head up and In his hand was a wrapped piece of candy that I recognized from his posters.

"Want one?" He asked politely.

"sure?" I was afraid to say no incase of losing the job.

"Trust me you'll need it" He smirked.

The bell rang and the kids started entering.
