Having cried a lot, Sorcha was able to sleep really deep that night. Waking up, she remembered how she wept like a child to her father and felt her face heat up.

'Why did I cry like that?' she asked herself and covered her face with both hands. To Sorcha who has experienced two lives already, it feels like a big lost of face.

After her daily morning rituals, she left her room and went to the dining hall where Aria and Anthony was.

"Good morning mom and dad." Sorcha greeted while trying to hide her embarassed face from her parents.

"Good morning little Sorcha. Slept well?" Aria asked smiling.

"Mm." Sorcha nodded.

Anthony laughed out loud while looking at her red face.

"My princess is still a child after all! Crying so hard yesterday ah!" He said, still laughing.

"Dad! Can we just eat already! Stop teasing me" Sorcha said feeling aggrieved.

Then all the people in the dining room, after hearing her voice filled with grievances, including her uncle David, aunt Claire, and some maids laughed at her. The mansion of the Barrons is lively that morning.

At school, while Ryan is doing his lecture, he noticed that one of his student's mind is wandering elsewhere. He didn't say anything about it and focused on his lessons.

After the class ended, he stood by the gates as he wait for sorcha's group to pass by. But before they came, Marion arrived.

"Why are you here?" Ryan was shocked.

"Can't I be here?" Marion said coldly.

"Cough~ cough~ it's just that, you seem to like going here lately." Then sorcha's group came near, saving him from further embarassment.

"Hello Mr. Ryan" greeted the group.

"Hello guys." He said then turned his head to Sorcha, "Sorcha, I've noticed that you're not listening a while ago. Is the lecture really that boring?" He smiled as if he's not the one who's teaching moments ago.

Marion raised his brows noticing that his friend looks quite close with her.

Sorcha blushed in shame. "I'm sorry Mr. Ryan i didn't mean it. I was only thinking about something." She said.

"Oh?" Ryan questioned, "Care to share?"

"Sorcha must be in love!" Luke teased her. But instead of making the atmosphere light, it turned dark instead.

Sorcha formed black lines on her forehead, Ryan furrowed his brows, and Marion emitted cold aura.

'Maybe I should teach this kid a lesson sometime' Sorcha marked in her heart.

'Is that for real?' Ryan thought inwardly. Feeling curious about her.

'Who could she be thinking?" Marion muttered to his self. A sour feeling sprouted inside him.

The three people with different things going inside their brain, struck Luke with dark gazes, making him flustered.

Noticing that he might have said something wrong he said,"Oh hehe! Older brother what brings you here?" hurriedly changing the topic while laughing awkwardly.

The innocent face of Rica and Edmund had question marks written there. 'Is Luke sick?' they thought.

Marion was the first to recover from his thoughts saying, "Do I have to tell you what I have to do?"

'Brother ah! How could you suddenly turn cold towards me!' Luke complained inside but kept the smile on his face then said, "Of course not. I'm just curious that's all hehe!" Still laughing like a retard.

Marion then gave a careful look at Sorcha's hands. Then took out something from his pockets and passed it to her.

"You should use that"
