Quick Transmigration: Counterattack And Rescue System

Today was going to be an excellent day, so, unlike the rest of the other days when my system had to wake me up, today I woke up alone.

[Is it as weird for you as it is for me? Because it gave me a chill to see you awake so early without my help...] - Expressed my 'little ball of light' as he circled from here to there over my disheveled hair.

"I also feel very strange, but that's what it is. Well, get off my head that I have to get up to go to the shower and then get dressed and put on makeup." I replied, fighting a yawning that threatened to escape. In the end the yawn won the battle and then I got ready and as every morning I went down to the dining room where my family was already gathered waiting for me to have breakfast together. It was American style and the conversation that accompanied the breakfast was quite cheerful and pleasant. After satisfying our appetites with a delicious breakfast, we continued with our traditional farewell at the door where I received several kisses and hugs before seeing my family disappear.

After closing the door well and turning to sit momentarily on the sofa, I yawned again while I was covering my mouth with one of my hands. "I'm so sleepy... I think I'll never get used to getting up so soon. I also feel that my body weighs a ton."

[Don't say that, host! You just have to continue like this, you'll see how your body gets used to this new schedule. Also, you don't think that when you wake up so soon then you enjoy many more hours to play or whatever you want? I do not understand what is wrong.] - Wondered my inseparable companion.

"The bad thing is to wake up." I replied dryly as I sat on the fluffy sofa. "I don't like waking up soon. Just that."

-You seem quite tired this morning, miss. Haven't you slept well tonight? We are glad that you study so much, miss, but remember to take care of your health, so fall asleep soon. - Amelie asked worried as she dried her hands on the apron she was wearing and headed towards where I was.

-Don't worry, Amelie, I usually slept very well. It's just that last night I was trying to solve a problem that resisted me. -I said yawning loudly again. - Well, it's time to go to class so I'm going for my briefcase and then I'm leaving. Thanks for worrying about me, Amelie. I really appreciate it.

[What a liar you're a host!] - Alphy exclaimed in surprise. - [You slept so late because you didn't want to stop reading a novel, not because of a problem.]

"I already know it." I said that and then went back to my room, took the briefcase which already contained everything I needed for today's classes and went back down to the living room. I said goodbye again, opened the door of the house and left. Upon leaving, I saw Noel and Didier leaning on the car that was already parked in front of the door. I said good morning and put myself in my place. I closed my eyes and only I opened them again when Noel told me that we had arrived to my school.

I went to my class and sat in my place. "Fleur, come as soon as possible... I want to see you, unlike the other days."

[Host, don't be impatient, Fleur will come sooner or later. There are only 15 minutes left before the first class starts.] - Alphy told me while rolling from side to side. - [Why don't you take advantage to study in these minutes. Fleur is coming soon.]

"Killjoy!" I replied as I pulled out one of the books in my briefcase. "Language... Better than maths."

Time passed quickly and little by little the class began to fill with people. Whenever someone arrived, I was greeted so concentrating on the book was basically impossible.

-Marielle!! Good morning. I am so glad that the redness of your face and hands has been reduced. - Brigitte expressed to me as she pounced to give me one of her bear hugs. - Don't worry, Marie, you're still as cute as ever.

The position I was in was quite uncomfortable but the friendly hug was appreciated. -Good morning, Marielle. I see that you are already better. - Luca said relieved.

-Yes, thank you very much. - I replied as I tapped one of Brigitte's two arms that were still hugging me.

She soon understood what I was asking and she released me. Then she walked to her place and turned her chair so she could sit watching me.

-I'm really glad you're well.

-And I'm glad too. - Said the female voice of the person behind us. - Good morning.

-Thanks, Brigitte, Camile, Luca. I'm much better and I'm so sorry I scared you the other day. - I told them smiling. - Thank you very much for worrying but now it will be better if everyone returns to your site. The class is about to begin.

And as soon as I finished saying this, the bell that indicated the beginning of classes rang. Those who were standing went to sit in their place, even those who were still outside entered. Including Fleur, who entered the last one.

"There you are. What a bad face you have..."

I entered class with my head down and leading straight to my chair. Once I sat there and after taking out all the material needed and opening the book through the corresponding page, I couldn't help getting pale. "Why? Why!? How could we get to this point... We are finished. Nobody wants to help us and without new funds dad's company will go bankrupt... I will be poor. No, I can't be poor. If I don't go to this school, how can I get in touch with all these rich people... Shit! Dad, Why did you have to compete with the Devil? I know you've always wanted to take the company to another level but you don't know that you have to thoroughly investigate your rivals?!! If this afternoon we don't get the funds, we will be living on the streets. No. No. No. This can't happen to me... "

I took a deep breath while my hand squeezed the pen tightly. "No, I must at least save myself. Yes... I have to protect myself too. My parents will take any opportunity to take revenge on the 'Devil' without thinking about the consequences. And I am their weakness. He will come for me..." I bit the lower lip thinking how to avoid the tragedy that I sensed would come for me.

-Shh... Fleur, are you alright? I have learned what is happening with your family's company. Can I help you? I don't think I can convince my family to invest since they don't want to turn against the 'Devil' but if it's something else, don't hesitate to tell me and I will help you. - Sophie told me whispering as she looked sideways at the teacher from time to time.

-Thanks for your support, Sophie, but don't worry. I understand your family's dilemma... - I whispered to answer her. "I understand the dilemma, and I know that 'my' company, because it should be mine in the future, is over, but that doesn't mean that I can't get some money from you. That's what friends are for, right? If I can't take advantage of you why I would follow your game and protect you. Yes, I know how I can continue here... "- I put a small and sad smile over my lips. Then with teary eyes, I turned around and said whispering something that would make her pay for my school years. - I'm going to miss you a lot... If my father don't get any investment, I'll have to leave here... This institute is very expensive so I could no longer go to classes with you...

-Don't worry, Fleur. If it's just that, I can help you. If I pay the school years for your parents, you won't have to leave and then we can be together until college. Even if you are poor, I know you will make your way and eventually return to the top. - Sophie whispered, inflating her c.h.e.s.t in pride. - Leave it to me. Don't worry.

-But it is very expensive. No, no, I can't allow it. - I said softly waving my hands to emphasize that I found that what she proposed was too much. "Great, thanks for falling into my trap, 'friend'. The school years problem is solved, now I just need to solve the other problems..."

-I do it because I want to. Besides, you can't stop me from spending my money on whatever I want. You just have to stop being stubborn and accept my help. -Sophie said.

I ducked my head in 'shame' and nodded.

-Thank you...

-Misses, if you aren't interested in my class you can go out through that door. - The teacher scolded us frowning while pointing at the door. We both looked at each other and then apologized to the teacher.

"I better pay attention to the teacher. I can think about my problems later."
