Suzy folds her arms and gives me one of her worried for Iseul and her stupid life choices look. “So you were eating your just-got-fired consolation sundae in this ice-cream shop when—“

“Actually, it said Super Happy Choco Delight Sundae on the menu—”

“And when this old ahjusshi father guy came up to you and offered you a job—“

I pull my own hair in frustration. I love my best friend but she can get reaaally paranoid for my safety at times! “YAH!!  He’s only 26, goddammit!”

“Okay, a young dude who lacks self-control and makes poor life choices offered you a job—“

I give up. I totally give up. 

“You went and accepted this unknown guy’s offer to become, basically, a housemaid—“

I immediately raise my hand to protest. “OBJECTION! UH, he’s not so unknown anymore now! And I’m not a maid, I’m a babysitter!  There’s a huge difference!”

“Well, a babysitter for his son, who you’ve only met for a grand total of…. 30 minutes in your entire 21 years of life—“

“Jongguk, who is also very cute,” I pipe in. 

“Whatever, for all you know he could be Stewie from Family Guy who's basically a devil child from hell. Anyway, the guy is paying you however much you ask for because apparently, he’s a…?” Suzy looks at me expectantly.

“A… desperate father?” I try sheepishly.

“YAH!  I’m talking about what he does! What is it that he does anyway?” Suzy snaps.

I blink twice and give her an innocent shrug. Suzy sighs and mutters something to herself under her breath, probably something along the lines of ‘I cannot believe this ing idiot’ or ‘she’s gonna get herself killed’.  

“Okay, fine,” she sighs, resigned.  What do you actually know about him?”

“Well… He has a 6-year-old son named Jongguk who seems very cute and lovable, he's apparently very busy with his I-don’t-know-what-yet work, and it seems like he's making a lot of money…” I trail off. 

What else, Iseul, what else?! Think! What else do you know about the random mofo who just hired you? ! Suzy’s right, isn't she?! What if he’s an ex-convict in disguise, or like, a drug dealer who’s hiding from his Russian boss or something?! What if—

“You can start making up information now if it helps you relax,” Suzy deadpans. 

“No!” I immediately retort. Ah, it. This is what your gut is for right? So what if I don’t know this guy? All I know is that—

“Currently, he’s my employer, and…” I pause, then grin. Suzy raises an eyebrow.

“He’s also freaking hot.”

Disclaimer: Copyright neonflowers 2015. I was first inspired to make a mobster/action-themed story by a mobster-themed fic I (still) love so much which is Mobster for Rent by huntress, but apart from that this story isn't inspired by anything else. Any form of plagiarism is strictly not allowed. Please also do not steal the idea of this fic/storyline, especially since I haven't seen another babysitter/mobster crossover fic like this one here on AFF.

[Featured on 24/03/2017 - thank you so much!]
