Chapter 2 - A new beggining

I opened my eyes, or at least I tried to. For some reason, my eyes were sticky. I could smell a wood scent all over the place, and then I started hearing cries. Then something held me, and I could finally open my eyes fully.

"-----###---####---"

What the hell? In front of me was a woman with reddish hair, glasses, and a maid uniform.

"----###--?"

I couldn´t understand what she was saying, I could hear everything, but not her words; actually, I couldn´t understand her words. She looked at me with a puzzled expression. I tried to ask her who she was "Mnh-Aaann" I couldn´t articulate a single word. What is happening?

I looked around and saw a big room made of wood, a few candels lit, and a lot of people. I saw a girl with reddish hair a little bit small, holding a crying baby in her hands, the girl looked at the baby with adoration.

"----####----" "----##---" The girl moved her lips as if saying something, but I couldn´t understand. Then the woman who was holding me lay me on the lap of another woman. The woman had bright red hair, red eyes like fire, she was covered in sweat and gave the other kid and me a tired smile.

The woman looked at the crying baby. "Ars..." She said to the baby, who suddenly stopped crying. Then she stared at me for a while and finally she uttered some words "Ryker...." Something stirred inside of me, I looked at a window and I saw my reflection. I was a small baby, I could inmediatly tell, I had reincarnated.

---

The next days were unusual, after realizing I had reincarnated, I started to notice some things. First, my name was Ryker-I couldn´t understand anything else. Second I had a brother named Ars. Third, my mother was the red-haired woman. Ars and I slept in the same wodden crib. Ars used to cry a lot and would punch me with his tiny fist. It was very annoying, but I could understand it.

There was also a blonde girl, the same height as the reddish-haired girl, and a woman with white hair and pointed ears, that was very weird but I didn´t pay it much attention to it. People used to look at Ars and tickle him, making him giggle amusedly, while they would stare at me with puzzled gazes, looking at me as If I were an exotic animal.

"----##Ryker##--?" The white haired woman said something, but I couldn´t understand anything except my name. Suddenly my mom kicked the door open and got into the room, she got closer to all of us and started to hold Ars and me at the same time.

Ars looking at the scene buried his face on my mother´s breast and start to touch it. My mother sighed and start to breastfeed him-in front of everyone! I looked at the rest of the people but they would just smile. "This is madness!" I shouted, but instead it sounded more like "Wahh!MnnAHH" My mother looked at me and decided to lay me in the crib, and I buried myself under the sheets.

Now all the people looked at me as If I were an alien. For the rest of the days, I had to adapt to my new life, I wasn´t an 19-year-old guy anymore-I was a baby, and a baby can´t do anything besides peeing, popping and crying, though I never cried. Curiously, I noticed that most of the times someone gave me a bath, it was the white-haired woman or the woman with glasses and maid uniform; rarely would my mom bathe me.

I also noticed that the little reddish-haired girl paid particular attention to Ars. She would always tickle him, look at him, and kiss him on the forehead. She also took care of me, but not like she did with Ars. I also found out there were even more people in the house: there was a little girl with brown hair and pointed ears who would look at me, also a blue-haired baby who sometimes looked at me curiously, and finally a blonde woman who looked mysterious. She would never talk or look at me, but she sometimes hold me.

The routine and the kind of attention I received were different from what I was used to in my past life, but honestly, I liked it.

One day I was looking everywhere trying to crawl onto the couch while the reddish-haired girl and the blonde girl were looking at Ars and me, when suddenly the door opened and an orange-haired girl ran out of our house. What the hell? I didn´t even notice she was here. Who is she? After a moment my mother, came inside being lifted by a man.

The man laid my mother on the couch and sat down, holding Ars. Ars started crying-as usual, the kid only liked being with women because of her breast. Suddenly, the man started crying too. That was awkward, so I hid in the couch while everyone surrounded the crying man. But then he stopped, looked at me, his face full of suprise, but then he smiled, taking me in his arms. The man had a brown hair, with a green eyes, though one of his eyes seemed different. He smiled and looked at me. 

"Ryker" The man said. His voice was different-maybe because he was the first male voice I had heard since I reincarnated?. No, there was something else. Why? Why I suddenly remember I´m not from this house. I have reincarnated. I remembered

"Wahh Baa!" I said, touching the man´s face. He just laughed, and for some reason, his eyes started welling up again. He began to cry, and I couldn´t help but to cry too. Everyone looked confused and shocked-this was the first time I had ever cried since I came here. I have reincarnated. I have a second chance. I won´t waste it. This time, I´ll do the right things.
