He looked down at his lap and noticed he still had his pjs on. "Oh great!" he mumbled.
Knock! Knock!
"Come in!" Kai called out.
The door pushed open to reveal Mariam Ten. "Miss. Ten, what do yoou want?" he asked looking through the stack of papers on his desk. "Finally your here Mr. Hiwatari! Adn oh! Nice pajamas!" she laughed. "Shut up," he mumbled, "I was in a hurry."
"Yeah Whatever but just to tell you tha-" mariam stopped when she heard something. "What is it Mariam?" Kai asked.
Mariam shuffled through the papers in her hands when she heard the noice again. "What is that noice!" she asked getting angry. Kai looked up a little. "What noice," he asked. Then a small voice was heard. "That Noice!" she snapped.
Kai looked left then right. "I don't hear anything Miss. Ten now hurry up please I have to catch up on my work as you can see."
Mariam was about to talk when the box tipped over and Crii fell out. The thud noice made Mariam jump. Both Mariam and Kai looked at the small infant next to the old box. "Is-Is that a b-baby?" the female bluenette gasped.
kai got to his feet and walked over to the fallen baby. "Now do you believe me that I found a baby at my house?" Kai laughed as he reached down to pick up the kid. Crii held her hands out too. 'How cute?' Mariam thought. She watched as Kai came near her with the infant in his arms. "Now what were you saying?" he added.
"I was about to say...uh...why does all that child have is that nasty old bos to play with?" she snapped. Kai looked at Crii in his arms. "Well i didn't have anything else for the kid to play with, so I let her play with the box," Kai announced as he sat down to get back to his work.
Mariam rolled her eyes as she sat another stack of papers on the desk. "So, who's the wife, and why didn't the workers here at Hiwatari Corporation know about it?" she asked. Kai studied his paper for a while before answering. "I'm not married...and Crii arrived at my door step this morning."
Crii looked at both her new father and the secretary.
Mariam walked up to Kai and took the baby out of his hands. "Well your kinda busy...I'll watch Crii for you," she said. Kai smiled a little and looked up. "That would be nice Miss. Ten...thank you."
Mariam walked into the hallway and looked at Crii. "Aren't you just the cutest baby...how could your real mother abandon you to that...Kai," she stopped in the middle of the hallway and nodded. "Never mind Mr. Sour-pants could probably make a good father, but hey! I hardly know him and I shouldn't be talking about him right now, well I have a couple of toys you couple play with, see my nephew comes over and stays at my office once a month and I have toys there for him."
Mariam headed into the room that said (Miss. Mariam Ten). She set Crii in a little child pen that was filled with toys. Crii smiled see the boat load of fun stuff that she was set upon. "Your happy aren't you?" Mariam laughed as she watched Crii grab a ball and play with it.
After a while Mariam had to get back to work or she would be behind. She answered phone calls that were all for Mr. Kai Hiwatari.
The time seemed so slow for Mariam when it was finally time for lunch she was glad. "But what am I suppose to do with you?" she said looking at Crii. She reached down to pick the infant up. "Well I don't think your father will mind if you come to lunch with me," she laughed. She got into the elevator and went down to the first floor. On the way down her best friend Salima came in. "Good Afternoon Mariam!" she said with her always cheery voice. She then spotted Crii in her friends arms. "Mariam! Is that your child?'
Mariam's eye widened but then she laughed. "No! No! Crii! She's Kai's."
"Kai has a baby?" Salima asked confused. Mariam nodded. "Yeah, but this child was left outside his front door last night! So it's his child, I guess," Mariam announced. Salima nodded now that everything was informed to her. "I thought she was yours cause you both have beautiful blue hair, but the eyes just don't look the same though, but Kai also has blue hair so what am I thinking," Salima laughed. Mariam laughed along too.
Soon they got to the first floor and they walked out together. "Who's that?" Mariam asked pointing to a brunette that she's never seen before. "Oh her, she's new here, her name is Julia Banks," Salima said opening the door for both of them. 'Oh,' Mariam thought.
Julia got into the elevator. "It says to go to the thirteenth floor...okay," Julia whispered to herself. But instead of pushing 13 she accidentally pushed 14!
Finally to the fourteenth floor she walked out looking for the room she was asigned to. Then she spotted a huge door right down the hall! Confused she made her way down the hall to the door.
Knock! Knock!
"Come in!" a voice called out.
Julia pushed the door open and saw a slate haired man sitting at the desk infront of her. "Do you know were my room is?" she asked him. The man looked up at the brunette. "What's your name miss?"
Julia smiled as she noticed who this man was. "Mr. Hiwatari I'm that new secretary for...I think his name is Tala Volcav." Kai looked at her with a confused look. "Well your on the wrong floor maybe that's why you can't find your room, and you still didn't tell me your name." Julia gasped. "Oh sorry! My name is Julia Banks, I was sure I pushed the button that said 13!" "Well you pushed 14 then," Kai chuckled which was weird, "Maybe later I'll show you around the place so you'll know it better hows that Mrs. Banks?"
"Oh it's a Miss. not a Mrs." Julia pointed out, "And that would be fine!"
"Okay Miss. Banks tomorrow hows that?" Kai asked. Julia gave him a thumbs up in agreement.
Julia nodded as she left the room and into the elevator. And she went to the right floor this time. She went into her room that said (Miss. Julia Banks)
Kai looked at his papers again. 'I wonder...if she would like me and make a great mother,' he thought. Then a knock was heard at the door! "what now!" he snapped "Come in!" The door opened and mariam appeared with Crii in her arms. "Crii had fun Salima and I took her with us to eat for lunch, I'll tellyou she loves applesauce!" Mariam laughed. She handed Crii over to her father. "Just drop her off at my office in the morning I'll watch her for you now," Mariam announced. Kai smiled. "Thanks Mariam I will."
The blunette looked at her boss. "And make sure next time you come to work...don't wear your pajamas but something nicer!" she laughed. Kai chuckled. "I will ma'am!"
