you were, in the most simple terms, broke.

with a dying bank account, student loans, rent and other expenses piled up, you needed a way to make money— and fast.

so, when you saw an ad for a babysitter, with an hourly rate of 50000 won, you knew there had to be some kind of catch. no-one paid a babysitter that much money for no reason.

either the kids were spawns from hell, or the parents had something to hide.

but you couldn't dwell too much on it. even if the kid was possessed by satan, you would take the job because you needed the money.

at first, it seemed fine, like you were just overimagining things. the mansion nishimura riki, that was kanae's father, lived in was massive, and he was definitely cold and had an aura of mystery around him, but it was just that. maybe he was a private person.

maybe you needed to stop thinking so dramatically.

after all, the job paid well.
