Though he did not appear to entirely approve of her presence, Julianna smile brightly when he welcomed her and offered to work with her in regards to caring for the children. “Thank you,” she chimed pleasantly, switching James from one hip to the other. The lock of dark curling hair he had been toying with was pulled across her face as he held fast to it. Gently, she pulled it from grabby fingers and let if fall back against her chest. James pressed the flat of his hand against her cheek in some sort of protest, but she didn’t pay it any mind. “And, of course, if you need anything from me, I am here to help.”
Julianna switched off the stove and moved to return James to his high chair. Relinquishing herself of the clinging toddler was a bit of a challenge, he threatened a tantrum as soon as she neared the high chair. The twins seemed more than content to be cuddled and toted around at all times. The nanny shushed him quietly, securing him in the chair and running a hand over his curling blonde hair as his bottom lip began to quiver. “It’s time for dinner,” she explained, and though his feet kicked against the rung, he didn’t cry.
She maneuvered around the kitchen with ease. It had not taken her long to orient herself with the simple set up. Everything seemed to be stored exactly where you would expect it to be. More akin to a display in a store than an actual home. Rising on her toes to reach the higher self, she pulled down two portioned plates, plastic and decorated with the faces of animals and two sippy cups. She cocked her head, signaling that she was listening to his question even though her back was turned. She dropped back down and hummed. “No, I didn’t get a copy,” she admitted. “Ms. Portian explained that her travel arrangements were currently ‘in flux’.” Her tone implied the air quotes that her hands didn’t gesture. "She said she would stop by when she had everything in order." She worked around Owen as he stood in the kitchen. “Mrs. Kingston-Hart-” the name was a mouthful and would quickly get tedious. “Did mentioned an electronics convention in Las Vegas.” She smiled at him again, hoping he could find the small bit of information useful.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
