The joys of babysitting

First Day

I walked into the house I was directed to. It looked very creepy, almost like a horror movie mansion. The door practically swung open as I put my finger on the bell. In front of the door was a small child, probably about 3 or 4. He had jet black hair and wore cute dungarees. "Hello. Do you know who is looking after you?" I asked, wanted to see the guy who called me here. He nodded. "He upstairs." The boy had a cute lisp. He ran up the stairs. Whilst he was gone, another child walked through one of the doors. He looked a lot older, maybe about 6 or 7. He walked over to me, kicking the door shut behind him. "Hello." I said. The boy was wearing a football jersey and shorts. "Hi" he said and waved. "I'm waiting for Ryan?" I said, unsure if I was at the right house. The boy walked up the stairs saying to me "he's in his room, I'll get him" Two minutes later, the two boys came down with the guy I talked to on the phone. "Ah! You must be Sophie?" Ryan asked me. He had messy, brown hair and wore the same clothes the oldest kid wore. "I'm Ryan and i called you here to help me babysit these!" He said. I nodded. I had a babysitting service in my town but I didn't think people wanted me to work for them out of town. "Are we only looking after these two boys?" I asked. Ryan grinned and shook his head. "Nah, there's two more. I'll introduce you." He said, calling out two names. Out of another room came a small girl and boy. The girl had long, wavy blond hair and was probably the smallest. The boy wasn't much taller and had similar hair too. "Meet Freddy," he pointed to the tallest. "Jamie" he pointed to the blonde boy. "Luca," the first boy I met waved. "And little Daisy." He said, holding the girl in his arms. Jamie walked to my leg and hugged it. "How old are they?" I asked.  "Freddie is 7, Luca is 6, Jamie is 4 and daisy is 2" he said, gesturing to them as he explained. "Make yourself comfortable and have fun babysitting with me!" He said, pointing a thumb at himself. I thanked him for all the help and went into only open door- I could see a sofa. I sat down and as I expected, the kids followed. Freddy started to mess with the toys on the floor and throw them at Luca. Luca caught them and threw them back so they were playing catch, until Luca football tackled his brother and they were playing Rugby. All was good until I heard a thump and Luca started to cry. Great. Brilliant.
