Aiva slumped onto the couch and heaved out loud, tossing her bag to one side of the room, extremely tired. But still, little Emma scurried forward and curl up beside her, inconveniencing her the more.
'Welcome Aiva, Emma baby miss you so much.' She said, giggling happily.
Keiran and Kyrin instead, help her to take off her heels and arrange her leg properly on the couch before walking back to take their sit, waiting for her to say just that one long sentence that they had expected her to say since.
'Hey kiddos, how's school? Did you get into fight? Have you done your assignment? Did aunt Arlys bully you?' with eyes shut, she asked, knowing the two little devils would keep staring at her until she say that.
'school was fine. We caused no troubles. Aunt Arlys help us with our assignment and didn't bully us.' The duo replied simultaneously.
'How is work, are you tired?' they asked abck but something deep within her couldn't help but scream
Isn't it sso DAMN! OBVIOUS?!
That bastard Adora that told them to call her Adorable was total annoying. Every intern's first day at work or rather… first week at work was supposed to be just introduction to the office and to the work. The intern assistant would work on files to set an example for them but instead of that, she make them start work immediately. She pissed her off!
'I am tired.' She mumbled
'we haven't had dinner….
'Let's call it a day.'
'We are so hungry.'
'Go get the food from the refrigerator...'
'The pass code…' Curious to know, they stretched out her neck.
'5 6 0 1 …' she was saying but all of a sudden, her eyes shut open and she popped up from the couch. What the hell! Did she almost say the pass code of the refrigerator to the kids? The entire thing in it would rest in peace before tomorrow morning.
'I'm not tired.' She said and stood up on her feet. 'I would get you something to eat.' She concluded and walk to the kitchen while the duo hissed and slump back onto the couch. They were crazily eager just now. It was just a close shave
Aiva sighed. The work and… nursing this kids, is an effective death dosage. Half of her life span had disappeared.
Emma ran into the tiny kitchen and hugged her leg.
'Go and play with your brother's Emmy, it is dangerous in the kitchen.'
'the kitchen is not dangerous. Yummy foods came from the kitchen, how can it be dangerous? The kitchen is a good place.' She pouted as she said, her eyes saying. 'I would not get fooled.'
'Whatever, stay if you would but… you must keep seated in one place.' She said and carried her before dropping her off on the plastic chair that was distance away. She turn back and continue to prepare the meal but all of a sudden, she heard a loud thud and she turn back sharply, only to see Emma lying on the floor, with the chair on her.
'Emma.' She screamed, her eyes popped out widely. She stumble to the front and yank the chair away, carrying Emma in her arms but her heart skipped several beats when she saw the blood that drip down the little girl's head.
'Emma! Emma!' she screamed, scared down to the bones but seeing that the little girl is not crying nor reacting to the pains, she got more scared and lift her up from the ground, running out of the kitchen.
Keiran and Kyrin stood up when they saw Aiva ran out of the kitchen with Emma in her arms. Their eyes widen in worry when Aiva ran out of the sitting room without saying a word to them. They ran after her, brow pinched.
'Go back!' Aiva yelled loudly as she pause and turn to look at the two of them who were running after her, crying. Calling the ambulance, is waiting for death, judging by the narrowness of this vicinity, they would not get here in an hour. She might as well, find a way for herself instead of waiting for them helplessly.
Keiran and Kyrin on the other hand did not comply, they kept on crying like someone whose everything was snatched while Aiva grit her teeth.
Damn! She can't stop to send them back. Emma is already in this dangerous state, she have to find a way to get her to the hospital first. Ignoring the two behind her, she kept on running bare footedly while the two tail after her, still crying.
A car passed happen to pass by, and noticing the danger, the driver stopped beside them and the glass wind down.
'Help …. Help me.' Were all Aiva could say, not even bothering to look at the face of the driver properly. The man alighted from the car and opened the back door for them while the four of them shove themselves in. the car took off in a great speed, heading in the direction of the hospital.
**Miss Aiva, shouldn't you at least look at the face of the man that helped you?
