Hazel's Pov

These kids are so sweet . My whole heart is swooning over them .

"If everything has settled. I guess I should leave now." Mr kingsmore says .

I turned back to see him retreating . I felt really bad for what I said earlier.  Then an idea strucks me. Clapping my hands I grab kids attention and say ,
"Kids your dad is going  I think we should give him our best wishes so that he works really hard."

I forward my hands to kids so they can take it. Jeremy and Alex grab my left and right hand respectively .
We go down to see off Mr Ivan. He looked surprised. Either this has never happened with him or he is surprised with my actions. He leans down and Kiss his kids and say ,
"Bunny boy, Bean bag behave like good boys , Okay ? "

" Yes daddy " kids said in union .

He looks at me and says, " Take care of them ."

"Yes daddy " I say mockingly. Then slap a hand over my mouth. Stupid Girl
" I - I - I am s-s-sorry . I mean Yes Sir . Of
course. " 
Mr kingsmore thankfully doesn't show any emotion just nods and leaves.

Fuck. Fucking fuck
Stupid stupid girl .
First day at your job and you fuck up. I want to cry. No I want to die. Dear earth just swallow me please.

"Miss Woods " Jeremy pulls at my hand.
Where was I ? Kids . Right I have take care of them . Enough pity party Hazel Woods . We will cry in our bed today .

I look at Jeremy and ask," Yes Jeremy?"

"Can you read us a story ? "

"Okay then, let's go to your room . "

I take the kids to their room. We sit there. I pick up 'The very hungry caterpillar' and start reading. One thing about these babies is, they are very attentive. After finishing the story. The kids play while I watch them .

Something is off about this room . It's walls are painted grey . There is nothing adorning the walls which gives it a dainty look. It's a plain dull room .  I mean , it's a kids room. It's supposed to be colorful. I need to make a list about everything that is wrong and tell Mr kingsmore about it .
Uhhh I am so embarrassed about this morning. I need to apologize to him . Ahhh Too much work.

Later in the afternoon I take the kids for their lunch. I notice how Jeremy gladly ate everything but Alex didn't touch peas. I don't push him. It's just the beginning I am sure we will figure something out .
Then we go to play in the garden which was unkempt. Later in the evening around 7 pm the kids eat their dinner . I tucke them in their bed and read a bed time story. I wait for Mr Kingsmore on the sofa after the kids slept. At sharp 7:30 Mr Ivan arrives . He looks at me .

I smile and ask ," How was you day ?"
He was taken back as if I had stuck him in the face .

"Fine ." He says grumpily .

He asks about everything the kids did . I gladly tell him. Then he go to the kids room and gives them goodnight kisses . I stand at the doorstep watching him .

When He walks out of the room, I follow him. He suddenly stops causing me to bump into him .

"What ? " He asks mildly irritated .

"Umm I was wondering " I speak slowly. 

" Speak ." He orders.

Seriously! What's wrong with this man and his one word syllables. 

Looking down , I start wringing my hands ," Mr Kingsmore I am really sorry for today. I shouldn't have judged you and passed that stupid comment. And for what happened at the doorstep in the morning. I was just thinking and spoke mindlessly. I mean it was in my head and came out. Like an involuntary response. I really sorry ."

"Do you have a habit of calling everyone Daddy , Miss Woods ."

I raise my head shocked ," What ! No . I am sorry I won't repeat it ."

"It's fine. I understand ." he turns to go again .

"Sir, I'm not finished yet . "

"Then say it "

" The kids room is in desperate need for some changes . It's very gloomy here . It needs some refreshing color and decoration and --- "

He stops me and takes out a platinum credit card from his pants .
"This is for the kids. If you need to buy anything for them , Use it ." I look at the card and then him . He again pushes it my way .
I don't know why but this feels so awkward.  .

Sensing my distress he says ," This card is not for you, Miss Woods. It's only for my children. Whatever they want you buy it for them. Got it?  You want to do some changes , do it. You want to renovate the whole house for my children's sake, Do it ! It's their happiness that matters the most . "

I take the credit card . Then bide my farewell .
My mind was already filled with ideas. What will I buy. How will I decorate their room. Garden needs some serious attention.

Damn tomorrow's gonna be a busy day !! Heheheehe !!!
