bound beyond fates

chapter 49.

"i'm curious how princess herady looks like."

halos mabulunan ako sa kinakain ko dahil sa sinabi ni yna. lunch ngayon kaya sama sama ulit kami kumakain sa cafeteria.

nakakuha ito ng atensyon ang ibang nakaupo sa table namin habang napatingin sila drake at thiarra sa direksyon ko. bakit kayo lumilingon sakin?! i even heard aziel snorting. ano ba kasi naisip ng hari na isapubliko ang pinaggagawa ko dati?

"yeah, why don't they publicize her face when they announced her good deeds? "

" maybe she's ugly. "

nagpipigil ng tawa si aziel sa tabi ko dahil sa sinabi ni lucian. aapakan ko sana ang paa niya upang patigilin siya nang makaiwas siya. now he's even looking at me mockingly. this bastard-!

"lucian! how could you say that?! she's still our princess that reduced the crime rate in our kingdom! she even made us victorious 3 years ago in war!"

" i know, i know. i will still respect her even if she has an hideous face. but what if that's the reason why the royale palace won't reveal her face?" wow, how could you say i'm hideous when you're always praising me everyday.

" even when she run away, they didn't post a picture of her, it's like they are not looking for her whereabouts." alam na kasi nila kung saang lupalop ako ng mundo nagtatago. nandito lang naman ako sa harap niyo.

"well, it's not like we can't judge the palace's action regardless of the runaway princess."

" but saying that the princess is unsightly, if someone heard you they will not hesitate to behead you. it's a crime to insult a member of a royal family you know." pananakot sakanya ni astrid kaya unti unting namutla ang mukha ni lucian.

" y-your not going to execute me right? w-we're friends afterall!" kinakabahang saad ni lucian pero walang sumagot sakanya. nababahidan na ng takot ang buong mukha niya habang pinipigilan naming matawa sa reaksyon niya.

"hey! i'm just joking! alam niyo namang nagbibiro lang ako diba? princess herady is the most beautiful princess that ever exist she even exceed the exceptional beauty of lady hera! i'm so sorry if i offended you!" nakapikit niyang panalangin habang kami ay nanginginig kakatigil sa aming tawa. i don't feel offended but somehow i am because you're like bad mouthing my mother. i'm her carbon copy afterall.

"ah. what will happen to your bright career in the future if you're going to die early. should i prepare my chrysanthemum for your grave?" pang aasar ko sakanya kaya naiiyak siyang napatingin sakin. should we stop this? baka umiyak na talaga siya.

"lady h-hera, how can you say cruel things? i didn't know that you're this brutal. " malakas na napahalakhak si aziel kaya lahat kami ay napatingin sakanya. narinig ko ang tawa niya dati pero hindi ganito kalakas. i didn't expect it to sound so deep. what the heck? bakit yung tawa niya ang gandang pakinggan?

"aahhh! stop laughing! kahit pagtawa mo bagay sayo! why is the world so unfair? bakit hindi din ako biniyayaan!?" lucian frustratedly stated kaya napatawa nalang kami sa hinaing niya.

"uto uto ka daw kasi. you didn't even notice that we're fooling around. it's kinda funny watching you cry for your own life. " mahina kong hinampas ang braso niya dahil nilalait niya si lucian. kawawa na nga tao ginaganyan mo pa.

"wait. that means hindi niyo talaga sasabihin? ampanget niyo magbiro. akala ko ba magkaibigan tayo?" nagtatampong saad ni lucian kaya napahagikgik ang iba samin.

"ang magkaibigan ay nagbibiruhan minsan."

" oo nga, nakakatawa lang talaga ang reaksyon mo."

" it's not funny for me! akala ko matatanggalan talaga ako ng ulo."
