I opened my eyes when I felt the sun on my face. I roamed my eyes around the place trying to remember what happened last night.
I felt the soreness down there when I tried to move.
Blurry memories came to my mind at pilit kong pinatayo ang aking sarili kahit napakasakit ng katawan ko.
I did it with him.
The realization made me shiver. He's not here. Where is he?
Pumasok ako sa banyo at parang nanghihina ako ng maalala ang mga nangyari dito kagabi. Dali-dali akong naligo at nagbihis.
Good thing there are still dresses in his cabinet!
Napahinto ako sa paglabas ng kwarto nang bumungad si manang!
"Kamahalan! Saan ka? Kumain ka daw muna sabi ng Duke," she said happily.
Malungkot akong ngumiti sa kaniya. I feel so guilty, General Mak said that Manang almost got killed because of me!
"Saan po si Duke Vilchez?" pormal kong tanong.
"Dumiretso na siya sa palasyo, kamahalan! Maaga siya umalis kanina!" sagot nito.
Tumango ako at tinignan ang dala niyang tray ng pagkain.
Might as well eat before I leave.
Right! I was about to think that what happened last night was special! But no! I was in heat and he was just trying to help me!
That's why he just left without me! How rude!
Nang makabalik sa palasyo ay sinalubong ako ng mga katulong ko at inalalayan ako papunta sa kwarto ko.
"Really, thank you for taking care of my sister," rinig kong sabi ni Duane.
Pinauna ko muna ang mga katulong ko at hinanap kong saan siya.
"It's nothing your highness, I just did my duty," si Felix.
Napahinto ako ng marinig yun.
"My sister can be a troublesome sometimes!"
Imbes na hanapin si Duane ay umalis nalang ako roon.
'He just did his duty'. Why does it hurt?
Pilit kong kalimutan nalang ang nangyari at ituon ang atensyon sa iba.
I changed my clothes and went to my dad's temporary office.
The Baron and his family are there.
"Your family have done something unforgivable Baron Nallon!" si Haring Cruzeir.
Nakatitig lang si papa sa kanila at parang gustong pumatay.
I went to him and gave him a hug.
"My daughter! How are you?" it was almost a whisper.
"I'm fine, papa" sagot ko.
Umupo ako sa gilid niya at tinignan isa't isa ang mga tao na naroon.
Nagtama ang nga titig namin ni Lady Jeanne, she look so mad!
Pumasok naman sina Duane at Felix.
Felix's gaze went to me at nagsimula siyang maglakad patungo sa akin.
He was about to kiss my forehead pero umiwas ako. Tinaasan niya ako ng kilay at umupo nalang sa tabi ko.
"I'm really sorry Princess Lavenna for what my daughter did! Please forgive her!" pagmamakaawa ng Baron.
Nakita kong umirap ang Baroness at tumingin lang sa kung saan-saan.
"Why don't your daughter ask forgiveness Baron? Why are you doing it on her behalf? Can't she speak?" I coldly said.
