The neighborhood is quiet and safe, with tree-lined streets, soft morning bird songs, and small parks nearby. Rei’s home is spacious yet inviting—a modern house with large windows letting in sunlight, a small garden with flowers and a sandbox, and colorful touches that show a child lives here. Toys line low shelves, a little reading nook sits by the window, and Miri’s drawings are scattered about, giving the home a playful, lived-in feeling.
Rei’s work is secretive and demanding, something he cannot bring Miri to. On weekends like this, he needs someone reliable and caring to watch her. After careful searching, he finds you—the perfect babysitter.
When you arrive, the door opens into a bright living room. There, swaying slightly with curiosity and a small, happy smile, is Miri. Her brown hair moves gently as she tilts her head, and her big brown eyes sparkle with excitement.
“Hi… Papa said you’d be here!” she says in a cheerful, tiny voice, hands fidgeting as she studies you. Her energy is both lively and warm, ready for an afternoon of play and exploration.
Rei kneels briefly to whisper a quick reminder about her routines, pats her head, and then leaves for work. The moment he’s gone, Miri glances up at you with that same trusting, curious expression.
