I Didn't Even Want To Live, But God Forced Me To Reincarnate! Chapter 107: Enrollment To Harmonia Academy (2)

"Try them on, Lyra!"

"Oh, wait, Lyra, let me take some photos! Pose for Daddy!"

"As expected, this is the hidden joy of having a daughter! The clothing set is just too cute!"

"Excuse me, Daddy, whattttt?!" Altaire pouted in protest.

"Oh, Alt? You can wear your uniform and we will take some photos of you two together!"

--And so, it turned into a sudden photograph session.

"Mom, my clothes… they are quite oversized?"

I asked Mom when Dad was busy preparing for his beloved camera and Alt-nii changing into his uniform.

"Well, since you're in your growing period, so we didn't order for your current size, but we deliberately ordered a bigger size to accommodate your growth," Mom explained.

"Ah--."

I have never been a parent before, so I didn't know.

But that's true, it will be such a waste to use the clothes for a short period of time before having to buy bigger ones.

"Though we will still need to prepare for bigger size once these uniforms fit your body perfectly."

I nodded. Yup yup.

I will feel bad for acc.u.mulating 6 sets of the same uniforms with different sizes just to accommodate my growth.

Besides, they don't fit perfectly to my body, but they don't look that oversized.

So, it's perfectly fine.

--This is what happens after some photographs taken--

"Ca.s.s, do you still have your old uniform? Perhaps we might as well take some photos of our family in school uniforms…"

"…Cyan, are you nuts?!"

…Dad, you're into cosplaying?

"Oh, that would make a cute family photo!!" Alt-nii chimed in happily.

"It's not like they don't fit anymore, right, Ca.s.s?"

"…Can we not do this?"

--But in the end, we managed to take some cute family pictures. Mom and Dad still look pretty much, so…

Niina was dumbfounded when we first asked her help to take the pictures, but she managed to take some great pictures after having her hands trembling in her attempts to hold her laughter a few times.

But but!! Their Master level's uniforms were so... cool!! I mean, unlike the typical school uniforms, the Master level's uniforms are used mainly for adults aged 18 and up, and there's this Interns.h.i.+p program that they are supposed to do at Master level... In short, the Master level's uniforms look pretty much like a formal attire used in a work or a business!

I'm not sure how the uniforms for other schools' Master level, but Harmonia Academy's set of uniforms is just exquisite.

There's nothing shameful from wearing them, Mom!!

Could it be that she was still ashamed since they were her past school uniforms anyway, regardless how cool the outfits were?

"This is just… for our personal collection, okay? No boasting it to others!" Mom quickly warned Dad shortly after we all got changed.

"Worry not, Ca.s.s. Even I still have my sanity intact. I won't ever divulge this matter to public. This is for our personal collection."

"Your sanity is still intact? I would have believed it if I haven't discovered this side of you… Oh, Lyra. Remember to unveil your future husband's every layer of his personality. The Cyan that I knew from before we got married—where is he right now, I wonder?"

Mom tried to give me a precious advice in dating, but her troubled expression seemed to be full of love. Though she complained, she must still love this side of Dad, too. I can just sense it.

※Deep down, Ca.s.sie knows the answer. It's just that the past Cyan never revealed this real side of his due to having to put on the pretense all the time. Now that he was liberated from what chained his freedom in the past, how could Ca.s.sie have the heart to prevent Cyan from acting like he wants?※

"For your first day of school, you will go with Alt-nii and Clavis together in a carriage, is that okay, Lyra?"

"No problem, Dad!"

"Altaire, make sure to watch your sister well!"

"Got it, Mom~!"

"Lyra, be careful and watch your big brother, too."

"Okay, Mom!"

"…Hey, Mom, what's that supposed to mean?! I'm the older one here!!"

Alt-nii pouted again, and Mom smiled as she patted Alt-nii's head.

"Siblings must take care of each other."—such was her explanation, and naturally, Dad agreed.

"But it's the job of a big brother to protect his little sister, not the other way around!" Alt-nii still protested.

"Well, okay, okay, you're right. But it's also a little sister's duty to look after her big brother, right? What I mean is—Lyra, tell Altaire if you happen to see him acting naughty."

"Of course!" I answered cheerfully.

"Hey, Mom, come on!! Give me more credit! Aren't you trusting Lyra way too much?"

--Am I smelling a sibling discord here?!

"Mom, I trust big bro Altaire! Alt-nii, please take care of me at school!"

Still anxious over the future where my own big brother will turn to hate me, I decided to meddle and restore his big brother pride.

"Aww, only Lyra adores me as her big brother!"

"Haha, I know, I know. I was just teasing you."

"Mom, you meanieee!!"

"But your mom is right. Watch over each other's back, okay?" Dad acted as the middleman to end the conversation with a precious advice.

""Okay!!"" Alt-nii and I answered simultaneously.

The night before my first day at school, I became restless and unable to sleep. So, I timidly knocked on my parents' bedroom and ended up sleeping there with Mom and Dad.

On special occasions, we would sleep together—me, Alt-nii, Mom, and Dad. But when was it that I requested to sleep together with Mom and Dad?

Yes, it's my first time sleeping with my parents on my request after I slept in my own room. I was quite embarra.s.sed, but perhaps the embarra.s.sment's worth it, after all. It feels nice being spoiled by my parents—if this can be categorized as spoiled.

It rea.s.sures me to know that Alt-nii sometimes went over to sleep with Mom and Dad, too, especially after he woke up from nightmares.

And that's how I managed to get a good night's sleep that day.

The morning after that, it's my big day!

My first day at Harmonia Academy!

First mission: Find Iris!!
