TWISTED FATE OF THE KNIGHT

Chapter Forty-Three: Decision

"You can decide, Avy," Ian said to me as he sips to his tea.

"Since both of you live as a family then it's better for you to live together since you (Avy) lived with us for how many years, of course, I will be sad but Ian has not been with you for several years," She said. She has a point since I was with her since I leave the village and Ian didn't have me for how many years but I don't want to leave Lady Miary.

"You can take your time Avy," Ian said as he looks at me, and Miary nods. I know it's hard to choose but I need to decide since I can with them even if I live either of them since they are important to me.

"I've decided, I will stay with Ian but I'm going to stay the night today since I will come here as your knight," I said after I sighed since it's better for me to go with Ian dahil hindi ko na masyadong poproblemahin na may makahuli sa tunay kong kasarian. Naisip ko din na it's time to have time with him and to catch up since I am a knight of Lady Miary so I still have time for her, and also to be fair with Ian since I will be here and we can't see each so I decided to stay with him.

"That's much better, Avy," She said as she smiled at us.

"Then, it's settled. I'll pick you up tomorrow," He said.

"No, need. I can manage since I only have a few things so you don't need to pick me up," I said dahil wala din akong masyadong gamit dito since I brought almost all of my things when I left here. Alam ko naman kung nasaan ang bahay na binigay sa kanya and I know he has worked so it's better for him to go home straight away.

"Fine, I'll be waiting for you tomorrow," He said,

"Why do I feel like I'm giving Avy to marry Ian?" She said as she looked at us.

"What?!" sabay naming sabi ni Ian dahil sa biglaang pagkakasabi ni Miary.

"Really, you two are alike but I really do feels like I'm giving off Avy," She said while she, herself is puzzled about it.

"Haha, don't joke like that Lady Miary," I said as I awkwardly laugh.

"I agree, Lady Collins,"  Ian said.

"Well, it's not that Avy is a woman so don't take seriously and you both a family right?" She said as she sips to her tea.

"Yes, that's right," sabi ko nalang dahil baka madulas pa ako at mapaamin pa ako ng wala sa oras.

"I should go now. Thank you for taking care of Avy, Lady Collins," He said as he stands up kaya tumayo na din ako para ihatid siya sa labas.

"Your Welcome, Sir Ian," She said as she also stands up at lumabas na kaming tatlo hanggang sa labas ng bahay.

"Take care, Ian," I said as I bid goodbye.

"Be careful on your way," Lady Miary said to Ian.

"Thank you for your concern, Lady Collins. See you tomorrow, Avy," He said as he bows before he goes.

Sumakay na siya sa kanyang kabayo at umalis. Pumasok na kami at dumeritso sa dining room since it was dinner time. Ian refused to eat with us for dinner after he sees Duke Collins because he was going to the Prince Renz Residence.
