Father Lan shared a look with his wife before announcing his decision.
"cough cough... princess, you really know how to sing. sigh.. alright then, father will let you learn music. but, father needs time to make arrangement for you. tonight after dinner, father will give you the details. for now, it's time to get to work."
Father Lan stood up followed by eldest brother Lan. after accepting their briefcases from mother Lan, they made their way to their company.
Sierratilda stared at Julian, "brother, don't you go somewhere too?"
Julian gave her a smug smile, "nope. I just finished a very hard mission from military school, so I can get a day off. wanna go out with me sis?"
sierratilda's eyes lit up immediately. both siblings took a glance at their mother.
mother Lan smiled understandingly at her children.
"alright, you can bring your sister to relax and have fun."
"the car...."
"sigh, okay. you can drive the car. no need for chauffeur. but, remember to be safe!"
Julian jumped in joy and gave mother Lan a hug and kiss on the cheek. "Love you mom!"
sierratilda also gave her a hug, albeit her awkward feeling when doing so.

"sis, hurry up. you're so long!"
Julin had been waiting for his sister, Matilda for almost an hour. what can make a girl took an hour before going out? of course, dresses!
Siearratilda walked out the door looking helpless, it's not her fault she took an hour to dress up. who told the real Matilda to only have blinky and frilly dresses? wearing them make her look like a big elementary kid instead of a teenager. took her so long to find a slightly normal dress.
'must get new dresses, ones that match my age!' she thaught.
both of them entered the car.
a second later, Julian asked, "where to sis?"
"err... I don't know."
"well, is there anything you want to do?"
Sierratilda hasitated for a bit before replied him, "can you bring me to buy new clothes?"
"you want to buy new clothes again?" Julian stared at his sister in disbelief. the last time, she bought those disgusting new clothes about a month ago. she want to buy some more again?
sometimes, Julian couldn't understand his sister taste in fashion at all. don't know where she got the inspiration for her styling idea. if not blinky, then too frilly. what a daring taste!
of course, he would never say this in front of his sister face, lest he would hurt her feeling.
Sierratilda glared back at her so-called twin brother, "what, got a problem with that? I just feel like too so I'll buy new dresses."
"alright, alright. let's go to mall then."
Julian then skillfully drive the car out of their home's yard.
only now she could see clearly the community where their family live. although she had been in Earth for 8 days now, the first five days were spent in the hospital. while after that she was cooped up in the family house to recuparate. only now she could see around.
her family lived in a private community which surrounded with greenery, and there's also a natural small lake in the middle of the community. the people all have small, mostly pedestrian strolling and having a chat. near the lake there are elderly doing some moved, was it some kind of dance? but although it looks smooth, it didn't look as elegant as a dance.
"what are they doing?" she blurted. but immediately shut up. what if Julian suspicious because the lack of knowladge. but he would never though that Julian would actually respond her.
"oh, those granpas and grandmas are doing some tai chi moves. grandpa Lin just retaired from office so in his spare time he gathered those elders to do some tai chi to kill time."
"I see." sierratilda sighed in relief secretly, good thing Julian didn't get suspicious.
she looked up at the group of elderly again. there was an old grandpa seemed to lead the group, he must be the grandpa Lin.
in no time, they already exit the community. she read the community name above the gate. "Heavenly Resident"
'hehe.. Heavenly indeed.'
