It's been a week since I have been working and living with this family. The mother is a nice woman but she focuses on her work than her own family but that's why I was hired. To tend for the baby, so small and a bundle of joy to see me every morning. The father seems to work overseas and only comes back for the holidays, Not enough time for their daughter sadly. But I don't want to think I'm the new mother for the baby, that's rude, sometimes I think I am though. Maybe it's because I'm an only child, taking care of someone who's younger than me is almost like an older sister feeling.

Another week passed and I received my pay keeping it safely in a box. I can only work here for so long until I get kicked out. The family said I can stay here for 2 years and I will have to find another place to live. It may be unfair but when I save enough money I'll be able to build a small comfortable place to live in. But I'm glad I'm able to help teach the baby some reading and writing before I go, time flies quicker than you expect. I will have to make the best of it.

It's been toooooo long.. so short stories..
