chapter 3

*In the Lorelai estate*

"Waa-WAAAA" My cries echoed through my ginormous room. I watched as the maids scrambled to get me to stop crying.“are you hungry?” one of them said “or do you want a toy ?” another one said, holding a rattle toy.

The maid shook the rattle toy for me and then handed it to me.

I don't want a toy-

I didn't want one, but the moment she gave it to me, I felt and excitement and curiosity like none before and stopped crying.

W-what?! Why is a rattle toy so interesting?! Augh- dammit!!!!!!!

And I sat there for a good two hours before i finally felt bored. Curse this baby body.I felt a bit hungry so I cried. That's all I could do anyway, as a 3-month-old.

My wet nurse, Rose, came to me and breastfed me. Because my mom and dad are always at.....war, They hired Rose.

Afterwards, she slowly walked around the room trying to get me to burp. But I saw something....strange.

Near the door, there was a huge mirror. And in that huge mirror, i saw myself for the first time.I had silver hair and big blue eyes, just like the book described. But....in my eyes, there were.....black rings?

I was shocked. Shiver me timbers, what is that? It looks....cool, but i also look possessed ! I thought what the maids said about my eyes were because of the rich blue color, and not because i looked like i was ........like an angel?

I mean....just think about it. I look like i have rings of flames (or burnt rings of flames, cause they're black) in my eyes!

I look so.....cute!!!!!

At least i have that. I got reincarnated into a reincarnation story, that's the least they could give me. Well, im also rich, and have loving parents and-aah

I think i burped after monologing to myself for a while.

And i was back inside my crib. Dammit I'm so bored----

That's where I fell asleep. After all that thinking, it felt nice and relaxing.

*****************************************************************

*3 months later.*

 As i was waking up from my very peaceful nap, i smelled a very familiar scent.

"Aah- aagaa" I made some more baby babbles as i tried to wake up.

"oh my. Clara is finally waking up." that voice as sweet as honey spoke and i instantly recognized her.

As i opened my eyes, I was met with a heavenly sight.My mom in this life....is so pretty that i couldn't help but stare dumbfounded.

"Clara really likes you, huh?" that was definitely my father's voice. He was right behind me.

Mom then picked me up carefully."I cant believe that you're already this big! I'm sorry for not being here, baby".

You should be sorry. It's been so long that I stopped counting. And in my eagerness to express my anger I started bawling my eyes out once again, startling the two as I snuggled closer to mom.

'It must be because babies feel more attachment to their parents. I would never act like this normally' I thought to myself.

Yeah. I don't think of them as my real parents. I don't but....I like this feeling.

Mom let out a chuckle at my actions. "Our Clara is such a cutie, right?" she remarked.

"Yeah....it's bad for my poor heart" dad said, looking a bit disheartened" she doesn't seem to like me too much"

Mom stared at dad for a bit before suggesting he try holding her.

“Do you think Clara will like that?” he asked hesitantly

"We won't know until we try, Pedro” she said, slowly handing me over to dad.

‘So his name is Pedro’ i thought to myself as i was being handed over.

As he carefully held me, i got a good look at him. He looked so nervous that i couldnt help but smile.

Now that I look closely, his eyes....are the same shade as the rings in my eyes.

And unfortunately, while I was thinking that, my hands tried to reach out to him.

He gasped in surprise." Chloe, are you seeing what I'm seeing?!" he exclaimed in an excited tone.

“I told you that she likes you too” Chloe said joyfully.

In their excitement, dad squeezed me a bit too hard and startled me, which led me to cry.

Mom immediately took me back from dad as he apologized to me profusely. He took a small, light blue rabbit plushie from the nearby table and waved it in front of me.

"Look, it's a new toy that daddy bought for you! Does Clara want it?" he said.

The plushie was cute, so it got my attention and making me stop crying. Both of them were relieved as I took the plushie and looked at it with curiosity.

"Phew. She stopped crying. Good job" mom said as she put me back in my crib and patted dad in the back.“it seems like she likes her new toy. You have good taste”

"Thanks" dad said.

I wasn't feeling particularly sleepy, but it was nap time already. I felt like I just woke up, but It was already noon. Mom fed me, burped me and rocked my crib until i fell asleep.

Just how long untill i'll see you two again? I hope not too long.
