Chapter - 3 Reborn (3):

I should've asked him... I should have asked! What am I going to do? I'm lost! Should I ask someone? No way! I've already asked several people, but they keep ignoring me! If I do it again, I will only waste my time! But if I don't do anything, I'll be late! What should I do? Damn this old brain of mine!

I sighed inwardly; I should have asked my sons where I should go! I'm such a moron for forgetting about this!

I kept walking, looking around and peering into rooms to see if I should go in or not. I asked around, but everyone ignored me. What are they so irritated about? It appears that I have now messed things up...

Then something caught my attention.

Is that a bench? Great! Walking around hurts my feet already!

I rush over to the empty bench next to a large Nara tree. What a lovely spot for a quick nap. I sat down and placed my bag on my side. I must not lose it. Martial would be upset if I do.

"What should I do next?"

I ponder. Should I look for it? I'm not sure what to do in here.

School is a place where children learn and study in preparation for their future and goals. I am now given the opportunity to become a student temporarily, and attend a school, but.. I'm loss as to what to do.

"Waaaaaaa-"

I whined. Well.. Should I try to go back home? But Martial told me to wait for him. That's... That's quite of a problem if I really do go home. And as if I even knew where to find my son's house.

"What are you do in here?"

I flinched when I heard a voice. I turned around to find a man in a formal uniform like mine. But he gives off something elegant and bright aura. Some rich kid? I then noticed something in his head. Is that? A cat ear? Wait what?

"What are you doing looking at me like that? Shouldn't you be in class?"

Oh! Class! I nearly forgot. Wait a minute... Is he acquainted with my son? Or is he one of those cretins?! But, looking at him and his ridiculous cat ears in his head... It doesn't give him the appearance of a man who would act like a jerk.

"I don't feel like going to class.. I'm a little nervous.."

I respond to his words. He looked at me from head to toe. Examining me? What is he thinking right now?

!!!

"Ugh.. "

I clutched my aching chest, feeling suffocated. The man immediately approached me and helped me. He rubbed my back gently, and the ache vanished as if it had never existed. What was that???

"Are you all right?"

He asked, concerned. He's not like the other students, I see. He appears to be nicer. That's fine with me, so I nodded.

"Are you really that nervous?"

He asked once more. Since I mentioned earlier that I'm nervous, perhaps I should use that as an excuse. So I nodded again..

I noticed his eyes trembling for a moment before he hugged me.

What is this? Why did he.. is he and my son close? I didn't moved and waited for him. He finally let me go and rubbed my back again. This time, he is frowning but with a mix of worry. I guess he is. But I don't know him. Should I ask? But if I do.. It would confuse him.. Maybe I should just shut my mouth and let it play..

"As much as I want to send you back home, you have been absent for more than a week or so. If you won't come to class today you will get expelled... "

Expelled? Is it that bad? Shit.. then if it is, then I can't let that happen.
