You scrambled through your keys to find the right one. Recently, you've been tasked with looking after your 8 year old cousin while his parents would both be at work. Though, you just hated whenever your job would interfere with your time with him.

As soon as you open the door, you were greeted with a tight hug at your legs. "Hi to you too, Soyu." You patted his head and smiled.

"We can't thank you enough, Y/n." Your aunt said as she was getting ready to leave. Despite the multiple times she tried to give you money for watching Soyu, you always declined out of politeness.

"It's the least I can do for all of the years you guys have watched me since I was a kid."

Your uncle came out from behind the corner. "Ah y/n, I see that Soyu was the first to greet you at the door."

You picked Soyu up, placing him on your shoulders. "It's because he knows that cousin y/n is the best, right?" You laughed.

"I just hope he doesn't cause you too much trouble. There's food in the fridge and make sure he stays far away from the snacks. Call us if you need anything." Your aunt said as your uncle and she headed out of the door.

"Bye mom, bye dad." Soyu waved to them before the door closed.

You put Soyu down and crouched to his height. "Alright, what do you want to do first?"

"I need to show you my swinging skills." Soyu excitedly told you as he imitated swinging a baseball bat.

You were never all that into baseball, but that was how could you say no to such a cute kid?

You followed him after taking off your shoes to the living room. Soyu quickly came back out with the plastic bat he got from you for his birthday. He handed you a ball and stepped back a few steps, ready to swing.

"Here comes Soyu, best baseball player in all of Japan. But can he make this shot?" You taunted as you prepared to toss the ball.

With one swift toss and hit, the ball hit against the wall and Soyu ran around the room as you clapped and cheered for him.

"Y/n, y/n look." Your cousin said as he pointed to the TV.

"What is it?"

"There's going to be a new player, and the tv man said hes really famous." Soyu smiled.

You sat down on the couch. "Is that so?"

Kenji Sato, you read on the screen and looked at the assortment of photos of him. Not too bad looking you have to admit, but that's not relevant. By the smirk on his face in almost all of his photos, you could already tell that his ego was through the roof.

"I heard that he's from America." Soyu sat next you, fascinated that someone like Kenji Sato could exist.

"Hm, yeah, and that's big news-"

The room suddenly shook, causing Soyu to hold onto you. Darn kaiju, they just never stop attacking the city.

"Hey its alright Soyu. Go to your room and do what we practiced." You rubbing his arm. Soyu ran off into the hallway into his room.
