"Sarah," Michael said quietly, walking over to Sarah. The expression on his face seemed to be pleading.

"Can you not go? How can I look after three kids alone?" Michael continued as he took Sarah's hand and held it and looked at her pleadingly.

It was a look Michael would often give, a look similar to the look their kids give if they want something.

He hoped Sarah would melt away and not go to the hospital.

Sarah let go of Michael's grip, then raised her hand and touched Michael's cheek.

"Everything will be fine, don't worry," Sarah replied with a reassuring smile.

Michael's hand that Sarah released earlier then placed on top of Sarah's hand which was on his cheek.

"Please," Michael said, still trying his luck.

Sarah just smiled apologetically.

"They are no longer babies, everything will be fine," said Sarah once again who had made up her mind.

If Michael had to take care of three babies who couldn't walk yet, then Sarah would definitely help him and not go to the hospital.

However, the three kids were already quite big. At least, the two kids can be considered independent and do not need more attention.

Michael sighed when he saw that Sarah had absolutely no intention of changing her decision to go to the hospital.

"Alright. Just come back quickly, okay?" Michael finally said.

Sarah just smiled and went into her room, getting ready to go to the hospital.

Once out of the room, she gave Michael an encouraging look then told the kids she was going to the hospital.

The two kids just nodded and answered casually because they were busy playing with Sienna.

"Kids, you have to listen to Daddy and don't be naughty, okay?" Sarah warned them.

The two of them once again just nodded and didn't seem to pay attention to Sarah.

Sarah just smiled at that and then immediately went to the hospital.

Finally, Michael, who suddenly became a babysitter, begins!

Michael's heart was still beating fast. He was nervous about what would happen when he took care of the three kids!

Michael sighed, trying not to be too negative.

After feeling calmer, he decided to sit down and watch his kids follow Sienna like a fan.

"Sienna, do you want to play with me? I have legos!" said Gabriel who was beside her while trying to grab the attention of the little girl who was standing holding the table and staring at her reflection seen on the glass table.

Raphael, who was beside her, didn't say anything, but he kept his eyes on the little girl.

"Siena!" Gabriel called again, grabbed the little girl's hand and tried to pull her to make her follow him.

Michael's eyes immediately bulged when he saw that.

"Gabriel! Don't pull him like that!" said Michael then quickly tried to free Gabriel's hand who was pulling Sienna.

What if the little girl is in pain from being pulled by his youngest son?

Gabriel was a little surprised when he heard his Daddy's voice rising and his Daddy's hand letting go of his hand, roughly.

"Sorry, Daddy," Gabriel said with teary eyes. He didn't expect his Daddy to be angry because he wanted to take Sienna out to play.

Michael's mouth opened in disbelief when he saw Gabriel looking like he was about to cry.

"Ah! I'm sorry. You must be surprised. Daddy didn't mean to be angry with you," said Michael who finally realized what had happened. He then approached his son and gave him a hug.

"Sienna is still a baby. Her hand could hurt if Gabriel pulled it like that. Do it slowly, okay?" said Michael, releasing his arms while looking at Gabriel.

Gabriel's hand wiped the tears that were about to fall down his cheeks.

"Daddy isn't mad?" ask him to be sure.

Michael nodded with a smile, showing that he wasn't mad at his son at all.

"No. Gabriel can hold Sienna's hand, but don't pull it like that, okay?" said Michael, giving understanding.

Gabriel nodded in understanding then took Sienna's hand again and drew her attention to the direction he wanted.

Michael breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the three kids had gone a few steps away from him to sit down playing Legos.

Sarah had only been gone a few minutes, but he already felt like years had passed.

He only wished that Sarah could come back soon, or that Anna could come and fetch her child right away!

"Siena!"

Michael, who was sitting back on the sofa, immediately got up when he heard Gabriel's voice calling for Sienna in a rising tone.

"What? What is it?" asked Michael in confusion.

He could see Sienna walking towards him, but he didn't see anything different about the little girl.

"I want to play lego with Sienna, Daddy! But Sienna leaves me!" said Gabriel gloomily. He wanted to show Sienna how to put Legos together, but the little girl left after looking for a while.

"Sienna is a woman and still a baby. She probably doesn't like Legos," Michael explained.

"Then what does she like?" This time, it was Raphael's voice that sounded.

It seemed that the boy also wanted to play with the little girl.

"Hmmm..." Michael looked thoughtful. "How about you ask Sienna?" said Michael.

"But I don't know what she's talking about, Daddy!" said Gabriel in confusion. Raphael nodded.

Michael scratched his head which didn't itch at all. He's really stupid. The little girl is only 2 years old, of course they don't know what the little girl is saying because she can speak, but in baby language.

"Ah, doesn't Gabriel have Mister Rabbit? How about introducing Mister Rabbit to her?" said Michael giving advice.

Sienna may still be 2 years old, but she is a woman. Don't women love dolls?

Gabriel immediately stood up and ran to his room, went to find his stuffed bunny.

While Raphael was still sitting on the floor, his facial expression was deep in thought.

He doesn't have a doll like his brother. Well... he suddenly just didn't like it anymore. He used to have such a doll, but he had long since parted with it.

If so, what should he do?

"Daddy, is Batman counted?" asked Raphael suddenly.

He doesn't have a stuffed bunny, and the closest thing to a doll is his toy batman.

"Just try. Who knows Sienna likes Batman," said Michael smiling.

Raphael nodded and immediately looked for his Batman action figure.

Michael sighed when he saw the two kids finally enter the room looking for toys to show Sienna.

Why is taking care of kids so difficult? He must also think and try to provide an understanding that can be understood by his kids.

That's not a complaint. Michael just wasn't used to the situation he was in right now.

Michael then saw what was being done by the baby who was entrusted by her mother.

Suddenly, Michael's eyes met the girl's. Sienna suddenly smiled sweetly when she saw Michael.

Deg!

Michael could feel his heart beating fast at that sweet smile. It was clearly very different from Anna, who rarely smiled. Apparently, this baby followed the blonde doctor's smile.

"Come here," Michael called, clapping his hands in front of his chest and bending slightly, trying to get Sienna to come to him.

The little girl with her tiny legs walked towards Michael with a smile on her face.

Michael then immediately picked up Sienna. The laughter of the little girl filled the living room.

"Are you that happy? Yes?" said Michael, playing with the smiling little girl.

Michael also smiled at the little girl's smile. He again imagined what it would be like if he had a daughter.

Will she look cute and adorable like Sienna?

"Of course!" said Michael, suddenly annoyed. Why would he think such a stupid thing?

Aren't Raphael and Gabriel already proof that his genes are superior?

Even though he and Sarah are not models like Anna, they both have good visuals.

His daughter would definitely be a pretty girl, maybe even prettier than Sienna.

"Daddy! I found the Mister bunny!" Gabriel's voice suddenly awakened Michael from his thoughts..

Raphael has also come to bring his Batman action figure.

Michael then put Sienna down, and let them play.

It seemed, taking care of three kids wasn't as bad as he thought.

***

Michael's face looked confused, cold sweat began to appear on his face. He felt like he didn't know what to do for the first time.

Sienna suddenly burst into tears!

He had tried to do everything he could. Picking up the little girl, giving Sienna the stuffed bunny she likes, even tried to distract her, but the little girl kept on crying.

Actually, what happened? Does she miss her parents?

Michael then took his cellphone, tried to call Anna, but the woman didn't pick up. He then called Sarah, and the same woman didn't pick up the phone.

'Ah? What if I try to show her Anna's photo? Maybe she'll stop crying," Michael thought suddenly, coming up with a brilliant idea for that.
