Chapter 3

Knock knock, my maid, Jessica knocked on the door again, waking me up from my self talking, and asked again, "Miss Starlight, are you awake ?", and I replied feeling guilty for making her wait, "Ah....Yes, I am awake, you can enter.". She entered my room," I have prepared bath water for you.",she said. I replied, "Okay, let's go", and she nodded in response and followed after me to the bathroom, after a refreshing bath I went to the dining room for breakfast. After opening the gate I was greeted with familiar faces I have been seeing since the day I was born, I mean my family, the Grand Duke Haiden (my father), Grand Duchess Delna (my mother) and a side character who wasn't even mentioned in the story, Eloin Nonclaine, my best friend, who came a few days ago to visit us with his family because my birthday was approaching and what a coincidence it was that his birthday and mine are on the same day so the elders decided to celebrate both of ours birthday together at our mansion, his father is Grand Duke Vevlon Nonclaine and his mother Grand Duchess Revrain Nonclaine, and his father and my father has been good friends since childhood and we have been good friends since we were little, I mean we are still little but for me he so little as I am 10 in this life and in my previous life I was 18 so I am total 28 years old ... oh my god I am already 28 years old .... ah there is no point thinking about this I should just focus on surviving...yes that should be my only goal for now. As I entered the room, I started with greeting the elders and then my one and only friend Eloin, and everyone replied to my greetings as usual, and after the greetings I sat with Eloin, and the servants served the breakfast, after breakfast Eloin and me went to the library to read some books, he is not so good at communicating with others the reason is he does not like talking much so he is bad at talking with others but as I also like quietness and do not talk much so we became good friends but to our surprise, we talk too much when are alone together, we talk about various things whenever we met, we just like each others company and vibes. We both were so excited when we heard we are celebrating our birthdays together this year, we will be turning 11 this year and after a year we will be joining the Royal Academy, and it is inevitable, because there is a rule stating that the children of all upper-class must join the Royal Academy for their further education and for the development of our Estraducisl Empire, if I can I would love to always live in the mansion leading a quiet and peaceful life without meeting any of the characters and meeting my miserable end.....ahh...just thinking about it makes my head hurt. As I was thinking all that suddenly I heard Eloin's voice calling me, "Star, are you alright?", and I zoned back in and said, " Ah! yeah, I am alright. what happened?", "oh! you were zoned out and were staring at the wall, so, I was wondering what were you thinking so intently?", I was smiling goofily and staring at him while thinking how cute he was while being concerned for me, as I was about to reply him, but the knock on the library door interrupted me in between, and both of ours attention was directed towards the direction where the sound came from.....
