Suki sighed, looking outside the car window. She's late. Late to get her babies

The photoshoot took much more time than she expected. Now it's quite late at night. She was supposed to be done with everything before it was before the evening

"Madame, please don't overthink. The kids are completely alright. I'm sure. "

Keisuke said from the front seat

Her brows were frowned, she had this look of displeasure plastered on her face as she looked at the half round moon

She was worried. She didn't ever stay away for this long from her babies after they were born. So it was naturally quite nerve wracking for her and on top of that, she's late to get them

So it's pretty much normal for her to get a bit worried

"I don't know, Keisuke-san. I've just got this really bad feeling."

The elder man smiled at her

"It's probably because you didn't see them for this long. Don't worry, Miss. I'm positive the kids are completely okay"

She nodded her head. She herself knew she was being kinda paranoid. But this nagging feeling she had in her heart was making everything more difficult

In all these thoughts, she sighed

"I guess you're right... "

She said, looking up at the sky, she brought her hands closer, interlocking both of her hands together, she closed her eyes

"Kami-sama... Please, take care of my babies. They're all I have. Please protect them for me"

She thought to herself, praying for the safety of her kids

"Here we are"

Ijichi said, parking the car

As the students came out, they felt it instantly. This building reeked of cursed energy. There was no denying it, there was atleast at first grade curse here

"Okkustu-kun, I'll put on the veil. You go and exorcise the curse but please be careful. There are atleast 10 children here"

Ijichi said, already taking preparations to put on the veil

"Sure Ijichi-san..."

They were about to move when Ijichi called them again

"Please make sure to take the kids out before anything. And especially the Abe twins. If you find them, the first thing you'll do is come back with them. Please remember this"

Ijichi said, making the kids confused. Maki and Yuta looked at each before asking

"How'll we recognize those two in all 10 kids?"

Ijichi paused, looking at them in disbelief

"It's pretty simple, both of the kids have very interesting eyes. In one of their eyes, they have a star"

The kids got more confused now

"A star?"

Ijichi nodded

"They were born with it. Just like their mother. Both of her eyes had this Star symbol. It's what makes her look so exotic and striking. But this is not the time, you can go in. I can already promise you you'll know instantly who the kids are if you see them"

Again, the students shared a look before entering the daycare

In the daycare, just like they expected. Was a woman in the reception, she was smiling yet her eyes were red, tears streaming down

"How ~ may~ I ~ help ~ you?"

She sang happily though she looked miserable

Yuta and Maki saw the curse behind her. It wasn't a very high grade one, only maybe fourth grade. So he didn't need to fight. He just whispered a strong matra under his breath and swiped his hand Infront of the woman

The curse bursted as he successfully exorcised it. The woman's smile dropped and eyes rolled back into her head as she lost consciousness. Luckily, Maki caught her before she could hit the floor

"This was it?"

She asked, sitting the women down

"No there are more -

They soon heard a childs cry. Their eyes widened in worry as they rushed towards where they could hear the kids

When they reached their, they felt their hearts almost stopped

The baby was on its crib, the disgusting looking curse looming right above it

Maki didn't waste a single second before attacking with her cursed tools

Within five minutes, the curse was done for

"This isn't the kid Ijichi-san told us about "

Maki said, looking at the cute baby

Yuta nodded, soon the felt a curse energy right above the floor

Maki cursed under her breath

"How many are there!?"

She frustratedly exclaimed before rushing over through the stairs

Yuta sighed, picking up the kids up. There were about 7 of them in the same room

"Panda-kun, take him out"

"Got it!"

The pookie said before rushing out with the kids

Yuta quickly went to maki, only to see her fighting with a curse that is atleast first grade. There were three

"The hell?"

He whispered under his breath

He was about to take out his katana when his eyes went wide. Rika trying her best to come out

"YUTAAAAA.... CUTEEEEEE!"

he creased his eyebrows, not understanding what she meant

"What do you mean, Rika-chan?"

With her huge claws, Rika pointed at a corner. His eyes following only where she was pointing

His eyes met with another pair of big doe hot pink eyes and he felt his breath hitch

He couldn't help but stare at those eyes, mesmerized by their beauty. It was like he was staring at the most beautiful star amongst the thousands of stars in the night sky

He'd never seen eyes like that. The beauty they held were out of this world and no one could deny that. Those eyes were staring at his eyes as if she was judging his soul

He just stood there, physically unable to look away from those addictive royal hot pink eyes

"YUTA! for fucks sake, I can really use some help over here"

Maki yelled, successfully breaking his daze

He quickly shook head, concentrating back at the curse. He quickly went and with just two slashes of his katana, the curse was exorcised

"What were you thinking, standing there like a fucking statue when I was fighting my butt off!"

Maki asked in a annoyed voice

"That child... Maki-san "

Yuta said, pointing at the baby, still looking at him

"He looks familiar"

The young baby girl, Ruby thought to herself, looking at Yuta

Ruby was actually trying to understand why this guy was looking so familiar. She was sure she never seen him, but it felt like she knew him through eternity

Maki was equally astonished at the beauty of Ruby's eyes. But she noticed one thing, she wasn't looking anywhere other than, Yuta

"This is the kid Ijichi-san told us about... He was right her eyes are like stars"

Maki said, coming closer to the kid. She tried to pick Ruby up but was rudely diclined as the baby slapped her hand away

She lightly glared at Maki before looking back at Yuta. She raised her arms, making grabby hands, demanding the young man to pick her up, startling Yuta greatly

Maki snorted

"Looks like someone has a crush on you Yuta. Now pick her up, I'll go check if there's any more kids "

Yuta's cheeks flushed but he smiled at the child, picking her up

But before anything, they heard a baby yell again

When looked aside, two cribs next to Ruby's. They found another pair of eyes, ocean blue eyes with the same star as Ruby's looking at them

The eyes that can make you think like you're looking at the most expensive star of the sky. His eyes were emotionlessly looking at them, think the same thing his sister was thinking

"Who is this man? Why does he look familiar?"

He thought to himself

"Oh... That might be her twin brother."

Maki went and picked Aqua. Unlike his sister, he didn't make a fuss about it and normally let Maki pick him up. But he too stared at Yuta like he knew the man's deepest secrets

"What's up with these two? Why are they looking at you like this?"

Maki asked, swear drooping seeing the instance staring between the three

Yuta too was confused, but smiled at the kids

"Hello there. I'm Yuta. I'm here to take you to-

Before he could even finish his sentence, he heard loud yells

"What do you mean danger? My babies are there! Let me go! I wanna see my babies!"

Maki cursed under her breath

"Looks like one of the parents are here"

To their surprise, Aqua and Ruby started to struggle in their holds, fussing around, trying to wiggle out their holds

"M.. MAMA!"

Aqua exclaimed as his eyes became teary

Both of the teens shared at look with each other, realizing the frantic voice outside is none other than these kid's mom

They signed, knowing there is a lot of explaining to do before they went outside
