Tamayo's POV:
I actually did it... I finally opened a daycare! It's always been my dream to teach little kids, they're just so cute!!! Luckily, my friends, Urokodaki and Kagaya, volunteered to help out! Kagaya even dragged his cousin Muzan along to help, and Yushiro, my junior from highschool, volunteered too! Because there were alot of kids, 41 to be exact, ranging from a few months old to 6yrs old. So I'll have to split them up, and I know exactly how...
"Alright, we will be splitting the children up batches that you will take care off to allow things to go more smoothly." I told there four. "Muzan's will be batch Kizuki, Kayaga's will be batch Hashira, Urokodaki's will be the toddlers, batch Kamaboko, and I'll take the infants, batch Suzume. Yushiro will help to teach some of them and I'll also be in charge of medication in case anyone gets hurt. Urokodaki will be cooking, Kagaya and Muzan just take care of your batches since they will be older. Everything clear?"
They nodded their heads, now for the groupings. "The Suzumes are a few months old to 1yrs old. I have Kamado Nezuko , Tokito Muichiro, Tokito Yuichiro, and a 7 month old baby Ayaki Rui. The Kamaboko batch is 2-3yrs old. Kamado Tanjiro, Agatsuma Zenitsu, Hashibira Inosuke, Tsuyuri Kanao, Shinazugawa Genya and Kanzaki Aoi are going to be in Kamaboko. These are their profiles." I handed a book of the toddlers' profiles to Urokodaki.
It may sound strange but I had told each parent to fill up a piece of paper with details of their kids and a photo before signing them up for the daycare. This was for us to better understand the children so they would have a good time here. "The Kizuki and Hashira are 4-6yrs old. Tomioka Giyuu, (???) Sabito, (???) Makamo, Himejima Gyomei, Iguro Obanai, Uzui Tengen, Tsukiguni Yoriichi, Rengoku Kyojiro, Shinazugawa Sanemi, Kocho Shinobu and Kanroji Mitsuri are in Hashira. The last few that are going to be in Kizuki are Tsukiguni Michikatsu or Kokushibo, (???) Douma, Soyama Hakuji or Akaza, Hantengu Urami(Couldn't think of anything), Hantengu Sekido, Hantengu Karaku, Hantengu Urogi, Hantengu Aizetsu, Hantengu Zohakuten, (???) Nakime, Managi Gyokko, (???) Daki, (???) Gyutaro, Agatsuma Kaigaku (Pretend they share the same surname because of adoption), Tamio Enmu, (???) Rokuro, (???) Wakuraba, (???) Mukago, (???) Kamanue and (???) Kyogai." I told them, handing them their profiles too.
"Hold on, that's not fair! Why do I get so many to take care of?" Muzan said.
"One, they are all demons with blood demon art like you. Second, it's funny to see you rage. And third, you were the one who said that it would be a piece of cake, so you should get more since it's apparently easy for you." I countered.
I could see irk marks forming on his forehead as he scoffed and looked away. Suddenly, my alarm clock rang. "Alright guys, it's time. Let's all do our best!"
Sorry for the long ass intro-
20 minutes later
All the kids had arrived and Yushiro started to teach the Kizuki and Hashira how to read while I put the infants to sleep as they were tired, some of them had already dozed off. When I came back half an hour later, with a few baby crying monitors(I think) strapped to my waist, the lesson had already ended and the kids were playing with toys. I decided to watch them since there was nothing better to do. "Hey that's mine! Give it back!" I heard someone shout and went to go see what was going on.
When I found where all the shouting came from, I saw two kids, Akaza and Kokushibo (She read all the profiles before this), fighting over a purple stuffed teddy with black ears. "No, it's mine now!" Akaza countered, blowing raspberries at Kokushibo.
I could tell Kokushibo was close to tears, but just as I was about to step in, a rainbow eyed boy named Douma went up to Kokushibo and hugged him from behind. "It's ok, he always like this , even in our old school! He will give back later!" Douma somewhat assured Kokushibo.
Honestly, that was the nicest thing I've seen a kid do today, it's adorable! Kokushibo turned and looked at Douma straight in the eyes, as if confused of what he was doing. But then, the most unexpected thing happened. Kokushibo hugged Douma back, turned to Akaza and said, "You can keep Mr Snuffles now, this is my new teddy now!"
Akaza looked enraged. "NOOOOOOOOOOOO! I WANT HIM! NOT FAIR!!!" All of a sudden, he pounced on Douma and started trying to snatch Douma out of Kokushibo's grasp.
The two started fighting over poor little Douma, so I thought it was going a little too far and stepped in. "Hey kids, how about you share Mr Snuffles, alright? Or maybe I can get a better toy for you, Akaza? No, no, stop fighting! Just share the toys, ok? Sharing is caring you know! If you share and stop fighting, I'll get you both ice cream for dessert after lunch, how does that sound?"
At the word 'ice cream', Kokushibo and Akaza stopped tugging on Douma and looked at me, then at each other. They did this for a while before finally agreeing to share. Yes! Problem solved! I thought.
When it was nap time after 2 hours...
No one's POV:
"So, what the hell even happened-"
The five daycare attendents stood in front of the giant sleeping mat shared by the children, eyes fixed on the three kids that haven't fallen asleep yet. Kokushibo and Akaza were lying down near each other, with a still slightly confused Douma in between them. Kokushibo was holding onto one of Douma's hands, while Akaza was holding on to the other. Tamayo sighed. This was not what she meant when she said share was caring. She had expected them to share toys, but instead they were, sort of, sharing Douma. Both of them were glaring intently at each other, neither of them breaking the eye contact they made sure that the other did not possess more of Douma for themselves. The worst part was that they were doing this despite the fact that they were supposed to be asleep. "Hey! Close your eyes, and fucking go to sleep. Stop staring at each other like that, if you fight and wake up the other kids, I swear I'll kill you." Muzan lashed out at them in a low voice, pissed that even a 5yr old could PULL MORE BITCHES THAN HIM- I mean that they might accidentally wake up the other kids.
The three got scared by the tone of his voice and started to cry really loudly, which woke all the other kids up and started a whole chain reaction. The crying fest was so loud that the infants in the nursery nextdoor were woken up too, and their crying could be heard even more clearly from the baby crying monitors that were still strapped to Tamayo's waist. "Why would you do that?! Just great, now we have 41 kids to calm down and tuck in again." Tamayo groaned.
The other 3 joined her and all 4 of them gave Muzan the "this is all your fault" look, before sighing at the exact same time and going to their various batches to calm them down. "You should probably go to your's and calm them down too, Cousin. Oh, wait that's right! You have the most kids to deal with! I mean, you practically brought this on yourself, so... Good luck~" Kagaya said to Muzan with a smug look on his face before he went off to calm down his batch.
Muzan almost shouted at him but decided to keep his mouth shut because he knew that would worsen the situation. Tamayo side eyed them and rolled her eyes. I swear, they are even harder to manage than all the kids here combined. She thought to herself before exiting to get to the nursery to cradle the infants to sleep again. Yushiro was following Tamayo since he didn't have a batch, and was probably going to be in charge of making the baby formula for the infants to drink.
After all the children were put to sleep and the five daycare attendents gathered back at the giant sleeping mat, all of them turned to the part of the mat where they knew the trio that had started the outburst were sleeping on. Kokushibo and Akaza had cuddled up to Douma, hugging him as much as they could, which means they were probably still fighting over him again, while sleeping too. Tamayo sighed. "I can never understand kids these days." She said, sighing deeply once more.
Don't worry tho! Kokushibo and Akaza got their ice cream in the end, but Kokushibo gave a small scoop to Yoriichi and fed Douma about half of it while Akaza just chugged the whole thing. Something about "I love my stuffy more than my Otouto", which resulted in Tamayo having to deal with a crying Yoriichi, who was the one Kokushibo told it to.
(Also, really sorry this was shorter than the other chapters that I just published 🥲)
