MY ROYAL ENGAGEMENT celebration will begin in a few minutes, but I have yet to see Princess Annalyn. Normally, I'd be concerned since my soon-to-be wife is nowhere to be found, but oddly, I'm calm and not in any need of panicking.
Maybe because I'm not really excited on this wedding.
Nasa second floor veranda ako at tanaw ko mula sa aking puwesto ang lahat ng Alcadian na imbitado para sa magaganap na royal engagement party. Matanda man o bata ay nandito lahat. Sobrang daming tao ang gustong masaksihan ang magaganap mamaya. Papaano pa sa mismong kasal namin? Sigurado akong hindi lang doble, baka nga triple pa nito ang dadalo dahil sigurado akong marami rin ang dadayo mula sa bayan kong Glandier para masaksihan ang pag-iisang dibdib namin ni Princess Annalyn.
"Prince Nolan," Somebody tapped my shoulder. I immediately looked over my shoulder. I smiled when I see Manong Osca. He's one of the drivers for the queen and king of Alcadia. Siya rin ang palaging sumusundo sa'kin mula sa Glandier kapag pumupunta ako rito sa Alcadia. Mayroon naman kaming driver, pero palagi pa rin ipinipilit ni Queen Guinevere na ipasundo ako.
"Ipinapatawag po kayo ni Queen Guinevere."
"Bakit daw po?"
"Magsisimula na raw po ang seremonyas at kailangan niyo nang bumaba para samahan si Princess Annalyn." sagot ni Manong Osca.
Tipid akong ngumiti. "Sige po, salamat. Bababa na rin po ako,"
"Congratulations po ulit sainyong magaganap na kasal," inabot ni Manong Osca ang kamay ko at marahan itong pinisil habang nakangiti nang malawak. "Sinisigurado ko ho sainyo na hinding-hindi kayo magsisisi na si Princess Annalyn ang pakakasalan ninyo dahil sobrang bait at masunuring anak niya. Sobrang matulungin din niya saaming mga Alcadians."
"Maraming salamat po," sagot ko at tipid na ngumiti pabalik.
Bumaba na rin kami ni Manong Osca pagkatapos nang pag-uusap namin dahil sigurado akong naghihintay na si Queen Guinevere at Princess Annalyn sa pagdating ko.
The music becomes louder as I approach the outside. I could also hear the Alcadians cheering from the outside. They all seemed to be delighted and thrilled about our wedding. Because this isn't just for me and Annalyn, or for the Queen and Kings of Alcadia and Glandier, but for the people of our towns as well.
Our wedding represents not just the unification of our communities, but also the fact that we will always be comrades.
If one town falls, the other town will come to its aid.
"Prince Nolan, we've been waiting for you." Queen Guinevere uttered as soon as she laid eyes on me. Although she is smiling, the expression in her eyes implies something different. She seems upset because I'm late.
"Paumanhin po, Queen Guinevere." paghingi ko nang tawad bago ako nagbigay galang sakaniya. Tipid lang niya akong nginitian bago lumipat 'yong tingin ko kay Princess Annalyn na tahimik lang na nakatayo sa tabi niya habang nakayuko ang ulo nito.
