Tae POV

I was upstairs in my room playing online games with my friends.

Even though I had my headset on, I could still hear my eomma interviewing my sister, Seo-yeong's next babysitter. I get she has to ask her questions about her working hours and stuff but does she have to be so loud? And does it have to be in the room right next to mine? Like come on Eomma, just pick another room. Please.

I suddenly heard chairs screeching and what sounded like 'thank you for your time' and 'we'll see you soon'. If I recall correctly, that probably means we have babysitter number six hired.

I've never had a problem with any of Seo-yeong's babysitters. Especially since they took responsibility for her and I didn't have to. But there were one or two occasions where some of the younger babysitters hit on me. And by younger, I mean like no less than thirty years old.

There was a knock on my door followed by my eomma's voice calling me. I shut down my Play Station and took my headset off as she opened my room door.

"Tae, I have some news." She walked in and stood a distance from my chair.

"Yeah?"

"We've found another young lady to take care of Seo-yeong."

Young? Maybe when you're almost fifty, thirty years old sounds young. "Okay. So?" I don't even know why I asked. I knew she wanted me to help out the 'young lady' on her first day on the job.

"So I need you to help her out with finding her way around the house when she arrives."

Knew it. "Okay then. When's she coming?"

"She'll be here around two tomorrow afternoon. After she finishes classes."

Classes? What like a pottery class or something? I don't wanna say Lamaze class but the mind thinks what the mind thinks. Nothing I can do about that.

"Your appa and I will be at a meeting then so I'm trusting you to listen for that doorbell and not leave her outside." She crossed her arms and gave me a serious look. All because I didn't hear the doorbell last time and her shoes from Shein were left out in the rain.

"I promise I'll hear it. I'll even wait for her downstairs without my headphones." I held up my crossed fingers just as a way to look a little innocent so she'd soften up a bit.

"Thank you, Tae." She smiled and uncrossed her arms. Works everytime. She walked to my door but before she closed it, she turned back to me, "I think this time we may have a winner."

"Eomma, you said that last time." I couldn't help but laugh a bit. *Sigh* my eomma, always so delusion.

"I mean it." And she left.

I grew bored of my gaming so I just watched tiktok until I was called down for dinner.

*Time skip*
Next day
13:58pm

I was laying on the couch with my phone being utterly bored. Seo-yeong was on the carpet in front of me playing with her dolls on the coffee table.

I dropped my phone next to me and glanced at her. If you could take care of yourself, I wouldn't have to give another fossil a tour only for her to forget the next hour.

At last, after another ten minutes of painful boredom, I heard the magical sound of the doorbell. I practically jumped off the couch but, of course, I had to almost fall on my ass doing so. And, of course, Seo-yeong had to see that and laugh.

"I think you're more excited than me!" She laughed.

"I think I am."

I jogged to the front door and unlocked it. I swung it open with a genuine smile plastered on my face. But that smile disappeared quicker than my allowance when I saw the young lady in front of me who really was young. And damn she had to be hot too.

"Hi, you must be Taehyung. I'm Y/N, the new babysitter your mum hired."

To be continued...
