Today is Monday. The first day for everyone who enjoyed their weekend, to return to their respective activities. Either to go to work to earn money, or to go to school, or to do whatever they have to do on a weekday.
This morning, the atmosphere in one of the penthouse apartments in London looks very busy because they have two twins who wake up late and have not prepared what they have to prepare to go to school.
The voice of a woman who was seen standing while putting her waist filled the apartment floor, scolding her two kids who were busy running here and there to prepare their school supplies.
"Rapa! Those are my socks!" said one of the blond haired kids who was busy looking for his socks, but it turned out to be worn by his twin brother.
"Nooo… it's mine!" said Raphael with a stern expression then hastily put on his shoes before his brother who was actually five minutes younger than him, but he thought his brother was still too young, snatched the socks he was already wearing.
"Not! That is mine!" said the blonde boy not wanting to lose and then immediately approached his brother, intending to snatch the socks that his brother had worn.
Seeing the two kids who were busy fighting, made the woman who had been dressed neatly because she also had to go to work, frowning in annoyance.
"Gabriel, just put on any socks you can find!" said the woman trying to keep her anger from coming out.
"But… I want to wear white!" said Gabriel, the blond haired boy, with a stubborn expression.
"Gabriel!" said the woman firmly.
Gabriel pouted his lips when he sensed that right now his Mommy looked very angry, like giving him a warning to obey or something bad had to happen.
"Calm down," said a man who had been sitting at the dining table. His brown hair was neatly combed, and he had put on his suit. "They weren't really late. I…"
The man didn't continue when the woman turned to glare at him. Subconsciously, he swallowed his own saliva.
"I mean, if they miss the bus, I can take the kids to school," the man continued, licking his lips.
"Of course you have to do that!" replied the woman, rolling her eyes. If it wasn't the man who had to drop the kids off if they missed the school bus, then who had to drop them off?
She wanted to drop them off. However, today was her first day on the job, and she didn't want to give a bad impression by arriving late.
"Besides, didn't I tell you not to stay up with the kids last night because they have to go to school? This all happened because you didn't listen to me!"
After dinner, the four of them spent time together in the living room watching a cartoon for kids.
The woman, who was tired because they went out during the day, felt sleepy. Plus the film is very boring. It was fine for kids, but she was a grown woman.
She then told the kids to go to bed early because they had to go to school the next day. However, both kids were whining and unwilling to go to sleep.
Seeing the sulking kids, their Daddy tries to defend them, saying that he will put them to sleep after the film is over.
The woman looked reluctant, but finally relented and went to sleep. She didn't forget to remind them to go to bed soon because the film only has thirty minutes left.
However, she had no idea that the three men would stay up late and watch one more movie. She found out about it when she asked her kids why they were so hard to wake up.
The man smiled awkwardly when he saw the woman's annoyed face.
"I'm sorry. I won't make excuses about it," said the man, smiling apologetically.
Even though they watch cartoons for kids, the stories are quite funny and not bad, making him also watch the cartoons with their kids.
Meanwhile, two little kids who were standing not far from them, just stared at their parents while blinking their eyes.
"Rapa, you said Daddy can help us. But it seems Daddy's also afraid of Mommy," Gabriel said without turning to look at his brother.
His brother had indeed said that their Daddy was higher than Mommy.
Every time Mommy says something, and Daddy doesn't agree, Mommy's listening to Daddy and seems defeated. It happened several times.
Gabriel agreed with that, he also noticed and that's what happened.
They both decided to side with their Daddy who spoiled them.
However, what they saw this morning was very different from what they had thought.
Didn't Daddy just look scared of Mommy?
"That…" Raphael couldn't continue his words.
He does love his Mommy, but sometimes there are some things his Mommy says that he doesn't want to do, and he thinks he can ask his Daddy for help with that.
So far his Daddy has always done what he wanted and did what he said, so in the long run, he's trying to get close to his Daddy.
However, who would have thought that his once perfect plan would fail like this?
"Mommy is really scary when she's angry! Daddy's scared!" said Gabriel suddenly who could see their Daddy's face that looked scared.
"Yes! Let's hurry to the dining table, before Mommy scolds us!" said Raphael suggesting then immediately headed to the dining table for breakfast.
Gabriel nodded and followed his brother behind.
The woman sighed when she saw her kids who went straight to the dining table without having to be asked.
She seemed to be losing control again and getting angry until the kids behaved like that.
However, what can she do? Right now she not only has two kids, but there is also one man who acts like a kid!
Was her decision to return to work right?
***
After the kids went to school with their Daddy. The woman who could not hide her annoyance finally went to her workplace which was not far from where she lived.
As soon as she arrived at the hospital where he used to work, she felt a strange feeling.
It was the same place, but very different from the last time she remembered. Although there are some faces that look familiar.
After making a brief introduction to some of the existing staff. She then went straight to her room to see what her schedule was for today and grabbed her pager.
"Doctor!"
The woman who had just put her hand to open the door to her room, turned when there was a female voice that seemed to be calling her.
"You're the new surgeon right? Come with me! There's been a bus accident and we're short on people! I was asked to call you!"
The woman was slightly surprised to hear that, then told the nurse to show the way.
It seemed that for the first day of work, she simply couldn't rest a bit!
