Protect Our Mommy!

BLAM!

Lunatte closed the toilet door tightly. She needed rest to relieve her anger, but she needed someone to vent her grievances. So, Lunatte contacted her best friend, Grace.

***

Grace smiled, looking at the five children of her friends who were playing. There are those who read books, solve puzzles, and even play chess and other games that require brain concentration. Grace shook her head.

‘What they play really shows as if they are adults already. Even though they are only three years old.’

Grace frowned when her cell phone rang. Apparently, Lunatte had called her.

“Wait a minute, your mommy is calling me. You play together. Aunty Grace will talk to her.”

The five babies stared at each other. Their gazes seemed connected to each other so that they understood each other’s thoughts. Despite being only three years old, Lunatte’s five baby daughters are geniuses! They are very genius in their respective fields and like to work together on a project that they like. They even often use their genius brain to help Mommy, Grandma, and Aunt Grace. But they did it secretly, so Mommy, Grandma, and Aunt Grace didn’t know that they were such geniuses at the age of only three.

The five of them listened carefully when Aunty Grace started talking to their Mommy on the phone. Grace turns on the loudspeaker until the quintuplets can hear their conversation clearly.

“Hello? Lunatte? What is it?” asked Grace intently.

“Aren’t you at work? Are you taking a break? I’m visiting your house. Your quintuplets are playing with me right now.”

But Grace was very surprised when she heard Lunatte’s scolding from the phone.

“This is really my worst first day at work!”

Grace frowned. “What really happened?” asked Grace curiously. She put her ears carefully to listen to Lunatte’s story, which must be interesting.

The quintuplets stared at each other again. They are very curious. What could make their mother nag and upset like that?

“My manager harassed me today. He even had time to grope my body. Luckily, I could escape from him earlier!”

“Hah? Harassed? Are you serious, Lunatte?!”

The quintuplets get angry when they hear that their mother is being harassed.

‘How dare the manager harass Mommy!’ The five of them thought very much the same.

“Yes! A pervert like that, I must teach him a lesson! I was going to report it to Mr. President. But he is not there. And now I’m in the toilet to quell my anger. What an annoying day!”

Adeline stood up. She invited her four siblings to enter the room to make a plan. She could not allow her mother to be treated like that and decided to help their mother.

“Did you hear what Mommy said earlier?!” Her four siblings nodded their tiny heads in unison. It looks very adorable even though they show their angry expressions.

“We are Mommy’s protectors! We have to protect Mommy! Mister manager, we have to make calculations with him so that he will be deterred and will no longer harass Mommy!” said Adeline in a very excited voice.

The four sisters nodded their heads.

Baylor, a computer genius, immediately turned on the computer. “I will hack the Houston Group company to find information about the manager!”

“Mommy said she works as a clerk in that big company!” said one of her sisters.

“You look in that division, Baylor.” Baylor nodded her head. Her fingers moved shrewdly, typing codes on her computer screen. It didn’t take long for this computer genius to enter and hack all the data of the employees working there.

“I found it!”

Everyone is excited.

“Fast! Fast! Open the data!”

“Um.”

“Ah, here he is! His name is Freddie. And you know what? He has a wife already!”

“A wife?! Ugly old man! How dare he make our mother upset!”

“Ah, I got his wife’s phone number!”

“Quick copy! We’ll send the number to Mommy!”

Baylor copied the manager’s wife’s phone number and sent it to their Mommy’s number. They used Grandma’s cell phone, which they managed to take because Grandma was busy cooking in the kitchen. But using another prime card they found on the road back then.

“Delivered!”

Lunatte caught her breath. Inhale deeply, then exhale slowly. Sharing stories with someone she trusts can indeed help relieve the raging emotions that Lunatte is feeling. Now she has calmed down a bit.

Ting!

Lunatte got the message. It’s from an unknown number. “Whose number is this?” her brow furrowed. Curious, Lunatte opened the contents of the message and was surprised to find that the contents of the message were the number of the manager’s wife who had harassed her before.

“Who sent it?”

Not wanting to worry too much about getting the message, Lunatte has a plan. She sent the hotel address along with the room number. Lunatte smiled. If that really was the number of the manager’s wife, then there was a chance that Lunatte would get out of this mess. Lunatte immediately came out of the toilet.

Finally, Lunatte can go home after finishing her work. Today really felt like hell. The next few hours, maybe even more terrible. Lunatte could only hope that the manager’s wife would come and scold her husband until he was deterred.

“I’m home,” she greeted. As usual, her quintuplets baby girls come and comfort her. But their words took Lunatte by surprise.

“Mommy, we will protect you as always from every danger that comes to you,” said one of the babies, who got a nod from the four other babies. But Lunatte kept smiling.

“Okay, angles. Have you been naughty at home?” asked Lunatte while looking at her daughter’s faces one by one with firm expressions. The quintuplets shook their heads. Lunatte smiled with satisfaction.

“Good. That’s my angels.”

Lunatte came into the room. She stared at the computer screen, which was still on. And her gaze immediately turned to Baylor. “Baylor, I have told you not to play on the computer for too long. You are still a baby. It’s terrible for the health of your eyes,” Lunatte looked at one of her daughters with a firm gaze.

Baylor glanced at the others. She forgot to turn it off. Baylor just nodded her head and then said, “Alright, Mommy. Sorry.”

“Mommy will take a bath first. Later I will accompany you to sleep. Where’s Grandma?”

“Grandma is peeing.”

“Ah, all right. Now play with your siblings, okay? I won’t be long.”

“Alright, Mommy!” answered the quintuplets in unity.

Lunatte breathed a sigh of relief. All the children had fallen asleep. Likewise with her mother. Lunatte took her shoulder bag and immediately went to the Raffles Hotel.
