Nathan didn't care about the eyes and thoughts of those bystanders.
He lowered his head, looked inside the car through the window and said, "Why haven't you come out yet?"
Inside the car, Natalie is fidgeting, she said, "Brother, there's too many people outside, it's embarrassing."
Nathan raised his eyebrow, with a smirk, he teased, "Hmm? Are you feeling shy now? Where's the Natalie that I saw back at the anniversary party just the other week?"
Natalie's appearance right now is a stark contrast to the Natalie that calmly greeted those nobles back in her novel's world.
Natalie back then was like a proper lady who grew up in a rich household and studied etiquette from childhood.
Hearing Nathan's words, Natalie pitifully said, "This and that are different!"
For Natalie, she was able to act comfortably inside her 'own world' because in her mind, everything there is her creation, therefore, not real.
But in the real world, Natalie felt vulnerable.
Because in this world, she has encountered her own set of hardships while Nathan was suffering in the past, making her start writing to escape it.
That's why for her, this world and that world are different.
Nathan fell silent for a second. He also knows about Natalie's thoughts.
He also had thoughts of helping Natalie but in the end, Nathan decided against it.
'Natalie is already growing into an adult. I can't always be there to help her with everything.' Nathan thought silently,
Sighing, Nathan thought about it for a second and walked to the trunk.
Opening it, he grabbed an umbrella that he put before and gave it to Natalie.
"Here, use this to cover yourself. It's not much, but maybe it will help you."
After saying that, Nathan did not talk anymore and just silently waited beside the car.
A few seconds later, Natalie finally came out.
"Brother, let's go."
Without waiting for Nathan to respond, Natalie hurriedly left with haste under the cover of the umbrella.
Seeing her acting like that, Nathan can't help but find it a little funny.
…
Nathan accompanied Natalie until she arrived in her class before heading towards somewhere else.
Today, Nathan doesn't doesn't really have a class yet. College class will only start a month later than high school's.
The only reason he is here today is to send Natalie to school.
At the same time, Nathan also went to greet the student counselor and got to know him beforehand.
Mr. Ned, his counselor, was a young adult who has the aura of youth and maturity without a sense of incompatibility.
Since Ned's age doesn't differ much from Nathan's, they were able to talk comfortably to each other.
After talking for several minutes, Nathan said goodbye to Ned and left the room.
…
Walking around the school, Nathan felt comforted in his heart.
Too many things happened since he got the system and from then on, life started to become busier than ever before.
Now that he is walking around here, surrounded by the youthful atmosphere brought by the students, his heart involuntarily relaxed.
After walking for some time, Nathan suddenly stopped and stared in front of him.
