"Caspian... what's happening?"

Naguguluhan kong baling dito. Pero bago ko pa man marinig ang itutugon nito sa akin ay biglang bumukas ang pintuang nasa gilid niya pati na rin si Lenoxx na katabi ko.

"Woah, woah! Pa- Paanong nabuksan ang magkabilang pinto?"

"Caspian?!"

Nanlamig naman ako doon at kinabahan. "What's happening, Caspian?!" I can't help but to blurted out.

My mouth dropped when I saw him getting out of the car. I gasped and my heartbeat race. Did we just caught that fast? That's... that's absurd! H-how?

Agad naman akong umatras pero nagulat pa ako ng agad naman akong hinila ni Lenoxx papunta sa kaniya at marahas na iginapos ang magkabilang balikat ko.

"What is this?!" Takot ang bumuo sa aking sistema. I can't help but be scared at this situation. "B-bitiwan mo ako, Lenoxx! Ano ba'ng nangyayari?! Let go of me!" Saglit akong pumiksi.

"Bitaw!"

Pero kahit anong katagang binitawan ko dito ay hindi ito tumugon at sumunod. Doon ko lang din nahalatang nasa harap ko na si Caspian.

Ang ibang mga kasama nitong lalaki ay mukhang hinarangan ng mga lalaking nakaitim. Unti-unti ring bumubuo ang luha sa mga mata ko. It started from a blurry image which the waters in my eyes formed until it foreshadows my tears streaming down.

"Are they my Athair's men?" My voice wavered. If it is then, I'm sure... I'm doomed.

Pumiksi akong muli sa mahigpit na hawak ng lalaking nasa likuran ko. "Answer me, Caspian! Alam ba 'to ni Kly? Is this a part of the plan too?" Lagot sa akin iyon kapag nalaman kong pakana niya rin ito. I want to hear a valid explanation!

Hindi ito sumagot.

His serious face and shaking head were the last thing I grasp to saw until he covered the half of my face with a handkerchief that was filled with a scent. A scent that sent me swoon.

"I'm sorry."

"This isn't an act... right...?" nanghina ako at unti unting nawalan ng balanse.

"Princess! -" that was the last word I have heard before I losing my consciousness. Everything around my sight went all...black.

I can feel my body being carried on... I heard faint voices upon my ear but merely... What are they saying? What's happening? Am I hallucinating? Am I fine? Have I been found?

My breathing is steady yet I can't move myself neither can I open my eyes and lips. Is this really what happens when you have gradually lost your consciousness?

Unti unting naimulat ko ang mga mata. Hindi ko alam kung kailan o ilang oras ako nagising. Nang mapamulat, ang unang bumungad sa akin ay ang puting kisame. No, it was a cream one... Nangunot ang noo ko. Sinubukan ko namang galawin unti-unti ang katawan. Nahirapan ako pero sa huli ay nakayanan ko rin.

It was unusual. Why does it feel foreign yet familiar? This place and its smell... Where am I? Unti unti ko namang itinukod ang sarili upang makaupo at makita ang kabuuan ng silid kung nasaan ako. It wasn't the one I was expecting... I thought... I thought I'm back to the hotel... to the palace...

I thought Athair had found and caught me again...

But... I wasn't... It's surreal... Athair would have found me yet he didn't. Should I be rejoicing now? The plan... Kly's plan...did work? Will they never be able to find here at this place...?
