"Mom, are you listening to me?" I almost shouted at my mom who was ignoring me completely

"Mom, are you listening to me?" I almost shouted at my mom who was ignoring me completely. "Mom!"

"I don't know why you're so obsessed with the babysitting. Is that even a job Bella?" she questioned at me taking her gaze away from her laptop.

"But mom.. you know I love kids and look at this.. They are paying thirty thousand quid per month, even you don't earn that much." I half-teased, showing my phone to her which made her glare at me.

"Hey! I'm a surgeon. I could earn more than that within a day." she said with a proud smile which made me roll my eyes as I knew she could never be able to make that much of money in a day.

Then she took my phone and stared at the screen for awhile before returning it back. "I think this would be a scam, who does pay that much of money for being a nanny?" she doubted, frowning in confusion. Nanny? Jeez, she'd never understand my job.

Nonetheless, I looked at the job advertisement once again which was published yesterday and read the information carefully.

"No mom.. I guess it's true. They'll be selecting the babysitter by organizing an interview and a lot of people have already applied for this job. But I don't think they'd interview all of them."

"Okay, so what do you want me to do now?"

"Well-" I cleared my throat nervously. "-I've applied for this job too.. and they've sent me a message saying that they'd like to meet me in person and discuss about it further." I told, looking at her and she furrowed her brows, closing her laptop.

"Where do they wanna meet you?"

"They've sent me the address." I glanced at my phone screen. "Guess, they're from London."

Her eyes widened hearing my last sentence. "London? You are planning to leave this city? You're planning to leave me as your dad did for his job?" she ranted placing the laptop aside and I sat beside her letting out a loud sigh.

"Mom.. Dad has gone to abroad for the purpose of his job and I do the same. Please mom.. let me go." I begged holding the back of her palm and she remained silent, staring ahead.

As she kept quiet for a long time I rested my head on her lap and muttered, "Fine mom. I'm not going anywhere, I'll be with you, running my daycare as usual."

I heard her sigh as she stroked my hair and began to speak after a few moments. "Only one month; If you stay more than a month then just forget about me."

I jumped up in joy and hugged her tightly thanking her countless times for letting me go to London.

"Okay, okay. When do you have to go there?" she asked me after pulling away.

"Uhm..I guess they would be hiring the applicants for a whole week so I should have to leave here today itself." I announced.

"Today? But-"
