Wanted: Perfect Nanny for the Heir's Babies

Chapter 10

Aeon woke up earlier than usual the following day. Usually kapag ganitong araw ng Linggo, alas onse ng umaga o ala-una ng hapon siya nagigising. Paano ba nama'y every Saturday night, laman lagi siya ng bar ni Skye. He, Skye, and some friends would always go party and drink to oblivion till dawn. Inom dito, inom doon. Sugal dito. Sugal doon. Babae rito. Babae roon. Sex dito. Sex doon. That has been Aeon's usual routine since Skye had the bar erected.

Almost 4 years na palang ganoon ang lifestyle niya. Medyo nagkaroon lang iyon ng pagbabago nitong nakalipas na isang buwan simula ng dumalo siya sa charity event na 'yon.

After his encounter with that rainbow-colored hair woman, nabawas-bawasan kahit papano ang pakikipag-party at pakikipaglandian niya sa kung sino-sinong babae. He didn't know what made him grow tired of flirting with girls. It's maybe because none of them captured his interest more than how that innocent vixen did.

Aeon got out of his bed. He did a little bit of stretching and went straight to his bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth. He didn't bother wearing a t-shirt. Nakasuot lang siya ng boxers. What can he do? He's been used to that 'cause it's much more comfortable. 

He felt kinda relax today. Nakapagtatakang walang siyang nararamdamang hangover.
Must have been because of the coffee she made for him last night or must have been because of her nanny's gentle hands.

Kagabi talaga, sobrang sakit ng ulo niya. Iyon ang dahilan kung bakit nagdesisyon siyang umuwi na lang buhat sa bar ng kaibigan. He could've had a great time last night but that f*ck*ng headache was killing him. That was why he chose to go home and take some rest. But much to his dismay, hindi pa rin pala siya makakapagpahinga nan g maayos dahil sa malalakas at walang tigil na pag-iyak ng kambal. Their loud cries always irritate him and it's stressing him even more.

When his ears couldn't take the babies' noises anymore, he went out of the tub, hastily wrapped his lower body with a towel, and immediately went to the nursery totally forgetting that the twins have a new nanny.

Nabungaran niya ang kambal na parehong nakaupo sa kaniya-kaniyang crib ng mga ito at sabay na umiiyak. He didn't know what to do to silence the babies. Aeon had carried both of them in his arms but Deo and Dea were still crying. Hindi niya alam kung paano patatahanin ang mga sanggol hanggang sa mapadako ang paningin niya sa feeding bottles ng mga ito. Nang magka-ideya kung bakit umiiyak ang kambal, ibinaba niya ang mga ito pagkatapos ay kaniyang kinuha ang mga bote para ipagtimpla ang mga baby ng gatas.

To be honest, Aeon had no idea what he was doing. He had never done that before. Laging ang mga dating yaya, si Aling Juling, si Zephyrine, o di kaya'y ang mga magulang ng kaniyang pinsan ang nagtitimpla ng gatas ng kambal.
Maybe that was why the twin still kept on crying kahit na nagawan na niya ang mga ito ng kani-kaniyang dede. 

Dea and Deo didn't seem to like the formula milk he did for them. Patuloy pa rin ang nakaririnding pag-iyak ng mga ito. Their cries were stressing him out. Dumagdag pa iyon sa sakit ng ulo na nararamdaman niya kagabi. Hindi niya alam kung paano patatahanin ang kambal. Sinubukan na niyang iduyan-duyan ang bawat isa sa kanyang mga bisig but it was ineffective. Lalo lang lumakas ang iyak ng mga sanggol.

D*rn!

He didn't know what to do anymore. He needed someone to come over his house to hush the babies. It was no other than his cousin, Zephyrine.

So Aeon left the crying babies and hurriedly went out of the nursery to give his cousin a call. But even before he could reach his room, isang bulto ang bumunggo sa kaniya.
