I second that you can just start with C++. C++11 and beyond permits and

I'd stress that encourages rather than permits, but very strong
encouragement as being permitted to do something not useful if you don't
know how or even if that "it" exists.
Thus while learning C (after I formally retired in 2000 -- I then
consulted) after a discussion about whether a procedural or functional
language I was challenged to write pure function C (rewrite one of my
exercises). Now obviously I had to know what a "functional language" was
like.
If you seriously want to do so, you can write in C just as object
oriented as if you were using C++. My (self chosen) "case problem" for
learning C was a direct finite implementation of the 2nd Lempel-Zev
compression algorithm. I certainly defined/created an "object" that were
the dictionary nodes.
