18TH STAR CONSTELLATION: [ ̶H̶]ATE/BLACK SOUL [FOUR]

CHAPTER 53: THE CARETAKER

Toriel's POV

A kid approached me and ask me something.

Toriel: What is it, my child?

Niyo: My name is Niyo, Ms. Toriel.

Toriel: Oh sorry, but what is your question, Niyo?

Niyo: Can I eat that chocolate?

Toriel: No, Niyo. That is for my daughter, Chara. You can eat some candies over there if you want to.

Niyo: Okay.

Niyo walked away to grab some candies at the counter, then go to where the other kids are.

They're all so... innocent.

???: Bwah!

I hear a baby cry.

It was Shyness, the baby that...

Toriel: Uh oh, it looks it's time for your lunch. Hold on, Shyness.

Since this is a daycare building that I bought, it will have all the essential stuff for the people who can't take care of their own child.

You could say this is also an orphanage.

I grab the milk bottle and feed it to Shyness.

Toriel: Now that got you quiet, right Shyness?

Shyness: Bwah!

She's so cute.

Who would leave this baby in the middle of the road?

Someone doesn't seem to know how to take care of a baby.

I wonder who it is.

When I find them, I'm going to give them a lesson.

Well, that is if I find them, in which I won't because they are probably in another country.

Shyness: Bwah! Bwah!

Shyness tug my clothes, maybe she wants to be pick up?

Toriel: What do you want, my child?

Shyness: Bwah!

Hmm, talking to a baby is not working too well.

Let's try something else.

Toriel: How about... this?!

I gave her a baby toy, that will keep her occupied.

Shyness: Bwah!

Toriel: The kids are so innocent.

I look at the other kids who are playing here.

All of them... they have been abandoned by their parents or their parents died in an unfortunate accident.

I go to the other room and turned on the TV.

TSSSSK!

Reporter A: Umm, I don't know how to say this...

Reporter B: Just say it.

Reporter A: We... the UHMF have failed to contain the glitches. We're...

Reporter C: WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!! AHHHHHHHH-

BOOOOOOOOOOMMM!

TSSSSSSSSSSSSKKKK!!!

I dropped my remote controller.

I look down on the floor... then I started crying uncontrollably.

Toriel: No... why... why did this have to happen...
