Chapter 3: Out of the mountain

"Lil sorcha are you ready?" My mother Aria shouted from downstairs.

"Wait mom!" I shouted back.

'Sigh. Dresses in this world are not conservative at all!' I thought.

I'm wearing a sleeveless dress that extends to my knees.

'If I'm in my past life, I'd be shamed by people that I wouldn't think of going out of the house for my entire life anymore.'

"My lil sorcha is so pretty" My dad Anthony praised as I go down. And I felt my cheeks burn because of that.

"Now now Arthur, look at your daughter blushing" teased Aria.

"Stop it mom" I calmly interjected. They both laughed.

"You take care when you go out and be good to your mom okay?" I nodded.

"It's too bad that you have to go back to work today" mother told Anthony.

"You know how they want to call suddenly everytime"

"Mm. Okay we're going"

"Take care" dad replied.

My mom and I ride on a vehicle with four wheels called cars that works the same as the carriages in my previous world.

My mom is going to enroll me in high school. And I'm very curious how schools work in this place since I've never been to one before because I was homeschooled. My parents said that my identity as a daughter of a general could threaten my life. Mmhm my father is a general. Although the reason for me being homeschooled is very exaggerated, I'm still moved by my parents protectiveness. I mean it's not like im really going to get assassinated or something. There's only a very small chance of that happening.

"My little princess has grown up you're going to leave us already." My mom emotionally said. I internally sighed

"Mom I'm only going to school."

"Isn't that just the same! You're going out the house already. And you'd meet new people there or maybe get a boyfriend and then you're not going to be my sweet little daughter anymore."

"Mom I'm only fourteen. What's with getting a boyfriend." I said. Of course if you added the 26 years in my past life I'm no longer a teen. In total I'd be 40 years old. I'm even older than my mother now.

"Really?" My mom looked at me pitifully

"Yes" my eyes tweaked. If there's one thing that I learned that I should never forget in this world, it is that when mom starts being childish in front of you, you only answer yes or else she wouldn't stop for hours.

"Then you will never forget your mom?" She added

"Yes" I again said.

"You'd still let mom hug and kiss you?" I sweated.

"That.." then I saw mom's threatening looks and gulped.

"Mm, yes..." I said with great difficulty.

"Good! My daughter is the best! Remember if there's anyone who tries to bully you in school just punch them in the face and mom will take care of the rest!"

Then I heard the driver's muffled laugh. 'Mom, that's not how you teach your child' I complained internally.

Btw Sorcha is read as Sor-ka.

Chapter 4: Student

The car stopped outside the gate of a tall building. although it looks quite old, it still feel as if it won't fall for a lot more years. There is a vast open space on the right side of it and at the back of the tall building, you can see smaller buildings with the same old style architecture. When we entered the grounds it was silent since school days haven't started yet. You can still see a few people here and there, probably those who will enroll like me, those who guard the school or those who help maintain it.

We walked pass a hallway and entered a room which seems to be the principal's office.

"Good morning Principal Bryant." My mother greeted.

"Oh you must be Mrs. Barrons, and this should be your daughter Sorcha right?"

"Yes, right this is my daughter. Go greet her sorcha this is Mr. Bryant the principal of the school."

I bowed a little then said "Good morning principal Bryant. I am Sorcha Barrons. Nice to meet you sir." Then I stood straight out of habit back when I was a knight.

"Oh you're too polite." Replied Mr Bryant.

"Sorcha go outside and play for a bit. We're going to talk about your enrollment first." Mom told me.

"Yes, mom." Then bowed again to the principal.

When I went outside the room I saw uncle David guarding there. He is actually my father's friend in the military who had to retire early because of an injury. He is grateful to my dad for saving him and now chose to work as our family Butler. He already stayed with us for a lot of years and we treat him as a family member already. Don't underestimate uncle David, although he was injured, he is still strong and able to protect us.

"Uncle David I'm going to walk around for a bit." I smiled at him.

"Okay young miss, be sure not to go far." He said warmly.

As I was walking, I reached a garden that looks as if it is being carefully tended to everyday. There's a lot of bonsai plant on the front, and flowers at the back. I stayed there for quite a while and just when I was leaving,

"Hey!" Someone shouted. I turned around and saw a boy who looks the same age as me. Quite tall for our age and looks handsome. 'Neat hair, clean face, and clear eyes.' I mentally praised.

"Are you a new student here?" He asked.

"Mm" I replied.

"Great! Perhaps we would be classmates. My name's Luke William and I just enrolled here." Then extended his hand to me. I stared for a bit on his hand thinking what I should do with that and tries to extend my hand to him as well. He shaked it and smiled. "You haven't told me your name yet" he added.

"Uh, Sorcha. Sorcha Barrons." I said confused.

Then another man walked towards us. He looks older maybe around twenty. He quite have the same face as Luke but is more handsome and matured looking. He has clear black eyes with long eyelashes, Enticing red lips, Smart-looking chiseled jaw line, and exudes an aura of elegance. He swept a glace on me then turned to Luke.

"Luke we're going home." His calm voice reverberated.

"Yes brother." Luke replied. "Sorcha, nice meeting you. I'm going now."

"Okay." I stood there and stared blankly while they walk away.

'Why does it feel familiar.' I thought.

"Young miss, madam is looking for you." Uncle David shouted from the hallway.

'Nevermind. We're going home'

"Okay Uncle!" I shouted back.
