I sat thinking while looking at my locket in the kitchen when nazir puts his hand on my shoulder.
"Jane my dear I have a job"
"Good..I need to stab something" I say throwing a knife
"Well plenty to stab my friend, its a toddler and a mom" he slaps a piece of paper on the table
"I can't kill a kid-"
"Your not killing the kid, just the mom..."
I sigh and look at the paper to see its a poster for a babysitting job...lovely.
....
I walk up to the door and knock, a few minutes later I still don't get a answer. I knock again and finally hear footsteps and the door opens. I instantly smell cigars and wine, along with other..odors. It was a high elf woman in front of me, her hair in a bun and her face was weathered, her pants and dirty blouse showed she was a mom.
"What do you want?"
"I'm here about the babysitting job"
"...you look trusting, here's the coin. Take care of Rafael. His bedtime is eight, he doesn't need lunch only dinner and if he asks for milk just give him water" she says abruptly before grabbing a bag and leaving
I shake my head at the ignorance and walk in, Talos is this house a mess.
I round the corner to see a two year old boy playing with a fork...very fun.
He was dirty and his hair needed to be brushed."Hi.." I say in the nicest voice possible
"W-who are y-you?"
"I'm going to look after you while your mom goes and...um.." I stutter cause she never said what she was doing
"Going to see her boyfriend probably" he says in his cute baby voice
"Oh..does your mommy usually go to her boyfriends?"
He nods and I just look around, how would I kill her if she isn't here? I go into the cabinet to find a whole lot of wine and ale, maybe I can poison some.
"Ma'am?" I hear behind me
I turn around and hum in response
"Can you read me a story?" He asks
"Of course, are you thirsty?" I ask
"Uh huh, can I h-have milk?"
"Yes, you can have milk" I laugh
...
I sit down with the boy in his room after making him some food and milk, he hands me a odd book. Titled 'box head'
Opening the book I begin to read out loud
"Once there was a box...but not just any box. This box was alive! His name was box head. He had buttons for eyes and a heart sewed into him..box head was lonely. He only had one friend that was a mouse, the mouse wasn't very nice to which he always chewed on box head and would steal stuff from box head. This saddened box head. But one day some mean kids tried to steal box heads heart! But the mouse brought his friends and scared the children away, the mouse put box heads heart back and introduced his friends. Box head now had many friends and was happy...the end" I finish and sigh
I look over to see Rafael asleep. Standing I walk to the kitchen and proceed to my duty. I hear the front door be opened and quickly make it look like I was just cleaning.
"Oh your cleaning..No need. Where's the brat?" She asks
"In bed, I red him a story and he was out like a light" I wave
"Hmp...grab me a drink will ya?"
I smile and nod, but roll my eyes as soon I turn around. Grabbing the poisoned wine I gleefully turn around and hand it to her.
"Alright..get out" she says shoving me
I walk out out of the house and bite my tongue, I just keep walking with the delight of knowing she would be dead soon.
...
As I was on my to the sanctuary I almost get my head burnt to a crisp when a fireball fly's past me. Looking over I see Newwind on her horse and laughing.
"Oh...hi"
"Hello, jump on. I'm heading your way"
I don't even question and jump on, she was silent the whole way and was very concentrated.
As we walk in I hear frantic talking, walking down the stairs I stop as I see veezara in a pool of blood and coughing.
"What happened?!" I ask
"Cicero!" Astrid yells
My eyes widen and I shake my head
