Chapter 31 - 31 - Are You Sure It Will Arrive Today?
It's been almost two years since I agreed to go to school, so I turned 13, and now it's time to go. I thought I would only go when I turned 15, but apparently, 15 is the age that people graduate, I should have guessed.
This is strange because when I turned 13, Lisandra was already turning 16, according to her age she is an adult, so she shouldn't go to school, but when I talked to my mother about it.
"Don't worry, 13 is the minimum age, but you can also enter when you are older, you will definitely meet older people when you get there."
I'm sorry, but I find this very strange, adult people studying with 13-year-olds? I have a feeling that the adults in these schools don't like children, so my desire to go to school has decreased even more.
But...
I made a promise to Lisandra, that I would stay with her until she graduated from school, it was a promise that I regretted the next minute, but...
But after much regret, I just decided to accept the fate of going with her.
Throughout this time, I continued hunting and raising my level, in addition to continuing to argue every day with Lari about the school, you must imagine that she does not want to part with me.
I confess that I started to feel so sorry for her that I almost gave up leaving this village, but I'm sorry, I made the promise to go with Lisandra before, I can't break it.
"Noah, how are you feeling? Are you anxious?" I was sitting on a bench outside the house while watching the movements of the residents, my mother opened the door with force, I almost fell off the bench with the scare I got.
I really have to improve my detection, I didn't even notice her approaching.
"No, I'm not anxious, I feel like I'm going to give up anytime." Of course, I wouldn't do that, but with my words, my mom seemed a little upset: "You know, if you say that next to your sister, you're going to be in trouble. Don't you remember the promise you made?"
Ahh, since when did you know about the promise I made to her? Lisandra talks to her more than I do, she must have spoken at some point. I have to talk to her not to tell other people about the promises she makes to someone.
But I think she should already know. Who's the big sister here, in? It sure is me, but I will pretend that this is not true.
"I'm just kidding, I won't give up on going ..."
"Good, then you are already ready to go."
"Eh?"
"You guys are going tomorrow, okay?"
"Eh?"
Wait, tomorrow? We didn't even plan anything, this is all very sudden.
"Don't worry, I already packed your bags, I asked Lari to do this, but she refused with all her strength, I need to talk to her a little."
With my mother's words, I couldn't say anything else, why is that so suddenly? I just put my hands on my head and started to regret it.
#####
Here I am the next day, trying to talk to my mom to try to postpone the trip, but it looks like it wouldn't change, it looks like classes would start in two weeks, and it would take us more than a week to get to the capital.
I already knew that we live far from the capital, but isn't that a long journey? Maybe that's why my father doesn't come back every week to visit us, he can't do that.
Haaaa ~~
I just sighed and gave up trying to do anything.
"What was Noah, aren't you feeling well?" Lisandra approached while carrying a bag, it was closed, so I couldn't see what she had inside.
"I'm fine, and you, what are you carrying there?"
"Ah, that? These are books, I decided to take them with me." I looked at her for a while: "But aren't there books at school? You don't need to take these, you can get new books there." With my suggestion, Lisandra shook her head frantically: "These are important to me." She had a smile on her face.
How cute she is.
Hearing her say that, I couldn't say any more.
"Noah, here, your things. The carriage is already arriving, you can wait with Lisandra in the living room." My mom handed me a huge bag full of things, but as my strength had already passed 300 points, I didn't feel any weight.
But I'm sure that If someone held this, it would end with huge back pain.
"Where's the carriage coming from?"
"Hm? It's coming from the capital, they should be here soon."
"Wait, from the capital? When did you contact them?"
"It's been a while, I told them to come two weeks before classes started, and if my prediction is right, I think it is today."
"Do you think it is today? Are you not sure?" She just blushed a little: "Now, don't worry, I'm sure I'm right, just wait a little longer." She had a smug smile on her face.
"Yes, I'm sure the carriage will arrive today." I moved away from my mother and sat in the living room with Lisandra. She was humming some kind of music and seemed happy, so I decided not to disturb her.
I sat there with her, and hours passed ...
In the end, the carriage did not arrive until the following day.
