School Babysitters (学園ベビーシッターズ)

It happened one winter's day.

What? You're taking the day off?

I'm... I'm really sorry, Ryu-chan...

Usaida-san caught a cold.

School Babysitters

What was that?

Sorry, my phone's been acting up since it got dropped in water...

I wanna talk!

I probably shouldn't have slept naked after my bath...

Hey! It's winter!

You had to know you'd catch a cold if you did that!

Wanna talk! Wanna talk!

Usaida-kun has a cold?

Will you be okay? Should you go to the hospital?

Well, I took some medicine...

So I'll probably be fine, but...

I won't be able to watch the kids today.

Well, if I take off from classes...

Actually, I went ahead and asked for some outside help.

Ranger 5

Your humble assistant has arrived.

S-Saikawa-san?!

But... What about your job?

The chairwoman

agreed that my services would be most required here today.

And that you

should prioritize your studies, as well.

B-But... I'm here because I promised to look after the kids...

Ryuichi-sama.

I may not be as capable as you and Usaida-sama,

but I shall do my best to fulfill the duties required of me.

Would you please allow me to try?

Now That You're a Mommy

I knew it might become necessary,

so I consulted the relevant texts to fulfill Midori-sama's needs, as well.

I'm with you.

Kotaro-sama...

If he has any trouble, he can ask the teachers for help.

Ryu-chan, you can go to your classes.

G-Got it.

Kotaro, be a good boy and do what Saikawa-san tells you, okay?

Taka, the same goes for you.

Can you be a good boy?

I'm always a good boy!

Please proceed, then.

It's the butler guy!

Greetings to you all.

Well, everyone...

Usaida-san's out with a cold today,

and I need to get to class,

but Saikawa-san will be with you.

Is that okay?

I'm with Kazuma, so I'm okay!

I'm okay, too...

I'll be just fine!

I don't need stupid Usa around!

I don't like him, anyway!

I-I see... That's good to hear.

Okay, I need to get to class,

but I'll drop in whenever I can during my breaks.

Thank you for your help.

I pledge to do my utmost to see my duties through.

Hey, do good in class!

Ryu-niichama, see you later!

See you guys later.

Now that I think about it, Saikawa-san's always so capable.

Maybe it was rude of me to act so worried...

As I expected, they have grown nervous in Ryuichi-sama's absence.

What can I do to make them comfortable with me?

Sa-chan.

I'm with you.

Kotaro-sama...

Indeed. You are unfailing in your judgment.

I could hardly hope to match Usaida-sama and Ryuichi-sama through my efforts alone.

Kirin-sama, Takuma-sama, Kazuma-sama, Taka-sama...

I fear that, in taking on an unfamiliar task,

I must request your aid and encouragement.

We're in charge!

I'll teach you the best games!

Let's play!

Me... Me, too!

I'll tell you the right things to do!

It appears they feel comfortable with me now.

I never thought he'd actually agree to it.

Guess it always pays to ask.

Still, I hope they're not missing me too much...

Usada...

Usa-chan...

The Sad Panda

Yeah, no chance of that.

Anyway, I guess I can sleep easy for now.

Saikawa-san

Hello? Something happen?

Uh, sorry, I've got a bad connection and can't hear you...

There has... emergency... Midori-sama's...

Hey!

I guess I'd better call him back...

The device you have called is either out of range or turned off.

Hey.

10 Minutes Earlier

I see now that even when one wears a diaper, one may still spring a leak.

Forgive my ignorance.

Midori peed on your back!

It's pee!

I see. That can be resolved through the removal of my jacket, though.

For now, we must prioritize the changing of Midori-sama's diaper.

I'll get the diapers!

I'll get a wipe!

I greatly appreciate your aid.

But I urge you, do not rush...

The both of you, there is no need to panic.

I shall simply ask Usaida-sama if he has any in reserve.

Hello? Usaida-sama?

There has been an emergency with regard to Midori-sama's backside.

If, by chance, you have a spare supply of disposable diapers,

I would appreciate—

Taka-chan's such a jerk!

It ain't my fault!

Stupid Kirin!

I'm not stupid! You're stupid!

Well said, Kotaro-sama.

Although I may not be as capable as the other two...

As I have promised to devote my all to this task,

I cannot leave you in this condition.

I hope the kids aren't making too much trouble for Saikawa-san.

I'm worried about Usaida-san, too.

Next time I get a break, I'd better go look in on—

A-Are you okay?

Hello? Should I call an ambulance?

I-I'm fine...

Usaida-san?! What are you doing here?

Yow! You've got some fever!

Yeah, I do...

What's all the yelling about?

Kamitani! Great timing!

I need you to help me get Usaida-san to the nurse's office!

Actually...

Could we check in on the daycare room?

I got a call about an emergency with Midori,

but I can't seem to call them back...

And I keep getting this chill up my spine...

That's probably because of the cold!

Nii-chan...

Uh, I heard there was an emergency with Midori...

Yes. As I told Usaida-sama on the phone,

there was an issue with Midori-sama's backside...

Huh? Her backside?

There was an incident that rendered her disposable diapers unusable,

so I had hoped to ask where you might keep your spares.

But then my phone became unusable, as well.

Thus, I was forced instead to improvise a cloth diaper.

Ryu-chan... is it okay if I pass out now?

Usaida-san, hang in there!

No, we should probably let him sleep.

Usa! Usada!

We been doin' real good without you!

We're fine!

Hey, good to hear it.

So we're just fine if you take off 'cause you got a cold!

Leave it to us!

I can take care of Midori, too!

Usa, rest and get better soon!

I'll help... too.

Lemon tea.

You're a little old to be crying.

It's embarrassing.

I'm not crying.

Isn't that nice, Usaida-san?

Uh, yeah... Okay, I'm going home.

I'll go home already, so give me a break...

I'm not used to this kind of thing.

Usaida-sama.

The others claim to be unaffected,

but I was only just able to achieve stability with their help.

Thus, I must request your swift recovery.

I think that if you know how to make cloth diapers, you're probably fine...

But the matter of greatest relevance

is that Midori-sama seemed quite perturbed about your absence.

Udda!

Udda!

D-Did Midori-chan just say Usaida-san's name?

It appears I must prepare a celebratory meal.
