You are the new nanny to Hokage Jiraiya's daughter.
Less sexy more dramatic as there's like a soap opera reveal to who the kid's mom is and why she ain't around

———————————————————————————

It's quite the honour to be chosen to be anything for Lord Hokage. Your position is one not sung about in songs or told in great tales, but it's still important. You watch over the daughter his lordship, Himari. As the nanny it is your job to make sure she is safe.

It's not really a surprise why Jiraiya picked you. You have lots of experience. A medical ninja turned nanny. An odd career choice but the war had taken its toll on you. The tending of so many wounded among all the suffering... so many not making it. It's rough. You left as soon as you could and took a less intimidating job. But you have the grit to assist a child if they are ever in need. You have a good track record and have never lost a child you've cared for. Hence why Jiraiya trusts you. Himari has an anaphylactic allergy to strawberries. If ever she needed you can stick her leg with an epipen.

Himari took a long time to adjust to her school life. It took some time for both her and her papa to become used to having long hours away from each other. Before Jiraiya became the fourth leader he was wandering the world with Himari. For a long time it was just him and her. They never parted until he accepted the position of Hokage.

But children are resilient. Himari has proved she's capable of change. She's made friends. She's doing well in her studies. Lord Jiraiya is growing more accustomed to being away from her. He was the one you were more worried about. He was quite sad whenever he had to leave his daughter behind.

You always check in with him after dropping off Himari. There's been the occasional time he's had to work late and asked you to pick her up from school. But most times when you visit him, it's usually to talk.

He seems... lonely. The only person in his life that he's very close to is Himari. There's no one else.

It's obvious that the mama isn't in the picture. Whatever he went through has left a mark on him. He loves talking about Himari but it seems you are the only adult who likes to listen to it and he speaks fondly of no one else.

He has pictures on his desk. And it paints a clear picture of the past even if he doesn't talk about it. There's the picture the hospital took of Himari as a newborn with all her information written neatly underneath the oval frame that contained her picture. Her size and weight is written down, as well as daughter of but it only listed Jiraiya. The mother isn't listed. The space for her name is left blank. Another picture beside it is one where Himari looks a couple of months old being held by Jiraiya. She's got on one of those cute baby dresses and the headband that has a crotchet flower. The next one was more recent, in fact you shot this picture a month ago. With him in holding Himari, she has on his Hokage hat and both of them are smiling. It's the same smile on both of them. She inherited so much from him. Except for her hair. Her hair is pale blonde. The rest of her is all her father but that little tidbit of her hair is the only remnants of her mother. There's nothing else to go off of.

It isn't any of your business but it's very curious isn't it? Did the mother die? There's a heavy vibe in the air to not talk about it. Jiraiya doesn't even have to say anything to give off his intentions to never speak of it. It's the type of linger that only pain of loss can bring. Something bad did happen with the mother and it's the last thing he wants to talk about.

"Himari and her friend, Kya, want to have a play date later today." He said as he looks over the more recent picture. "Unfortunately I have a meeting that I can't miss. Do you mind supervising in my absence? I know you don't usually work weekends."
