I am the Long Lost Princess

Lia's POV

After our vacation sa Spain, umuwi na kami dito sa Pinas ulit and we are living under one roof again. Nabalitaan din namin na bumalik na sya ng Pinas

So he's really following my track

So, back to normal and we are on our Grade 12, next year College na kami.

I looked at the door when someone knocked and Jai step inside my room.

I got excited since nakahiga pa ako, kaya umupo ako at tatakbo na sana para yakapin sya pero pinigilan ko sarili ko, I just smiled sweetly at him but showing excitement.

"You're not gonna run and hug me? That's what you usually do in the morning whenever I step in your room" sabi nya habang nakatayo sa may gitna ng room ko.

That's my cue kaya tumayo na ako at niyakap sya ng mahigpit.

"Good Morning, Mi amor"

"Good Morning" I greeted and listened to his heartbeat.

It's hard to be like this na parang need ko ng permission nya whatever I want to do pero kailangan kong gawin ito para hindi sya magsawa sa akin, this is the only way I can think of para hindi sya magsawa at iwanan ako, kasi alam ko na grabe yung magiging damage sa akin kapag iniwanan nya ako.

"Mi amor, could you promise me one thing?"

"Que?"

"Can you stop restraining yourself? If you want to hug me, go on, if you want to kiss me, go ahead. Don't stop yourself, I am missing my clingy girl already, can she come back?" He asked while looking directly at me.

Nag-aalangan akong tumingin sa kanya at hindi alam ang isasagot

Napapansin nya pala yun? Why is he so observant with me?

"Mi amor, can my clingy natural girl come back? I missed her already, I want her, only her. I only want my clingy girl, if she's not clingy, she's not my girl. Kung hindi sya clingy sa akin, maghiwalay nalang kami"

Agad akong napatango dahil sa takot na hiwalayan nya ako.

"She's back. I love you, don't leave me. I just want your hug and kisses, all of you" I said and hugged onto him tightly not wanting to let him go. "Sorry, I... I...."

"You're doing that because you're still thinking that I might get tired and I might leave you for being clingy, but, it's the other way around. I want my clingy girl and that's Amelia Everleigh Hermiogne Ferrocci, and she's not a restraint kind of girl. Hindi ko kilala yung babaeng nagrerestraint sa sarili nya, maybe that's Mahlia De Guzman, whoever she is"

"I'm Amelia" I said and pout.

"Really? Coz, you're restraining yourself a while ago"

"No na, I won't do it again. You only love Amelia, right? Love, say it" I said like a child

"I only love a girl named Amelia Everleigh Hermiogne Ferrocci, Mi Corazon, Mi Amor, My Baby, My Love. She's the only girl I love since I was 6 up until now."

"Kahit 12 years ako nawala?"

"Kahit ilang dekada ka pang nawala, ikaw lang. I went here for you, isn't that enough reason for me to prove my love for you?"

"More than enough" I said and hugged him again. "Sorry na po, I'm sorry"

"Bakit ganon? Pag ako may kasalanan, umaabot ng kinabukasan bago mo iaccept sorry ko? Pero pag ikaw nagsosorry, hindi ko matiis na di ka patawarin" sabi nya at hinalikan ako sa ulo. "Take a bath na, baka ma-late tayo"

"Opo. I love you, Mi Caballero"

"I love you so much, Mi Corazon" he said and give me a peck on my lips.

Lumabas na sya ng room ko to prepare din, kaya nagprepare narin ako.

I wore my uniform and put my things inside sa bag ko na binili ni Mommy sa akin bago kami umuwi. She visited a designer brand kasi, and binili nya ito kasi ako daw unang pumasok sa isip nya when she saw this.

Pagkatapos ko magprepare, bumaba narin ako to have breakfast with the boys.

"I'm planning to use my real name na"

"And what about him?" Tanong ni Kris

"What's really your plan, Mi amor?" Tanong naman ni Jai

"He's not moving or making actions towards me kasi ang alam nya hindi pa ako nakakaalala, it will be easier for us to know his motives and to learn his actions kung malalaman nya ang totoo"

"How are we going to know his next moves after that?"

"I will use my real name, and we will act like a fool. It's easier to fool a fool by acting as a fool"

"So aakto tayo na kunwari hindi natin kilala na siya ang kalaban?"

"You got it. By this time, the guards I hired is already acting like his ally. Once sya na ang prof natin, that's the time na maglalagay na sila ng secret cameras around his house with microphones. If you're worried if he will notice it, no he won't" I said.

"And then?"

"Basta, just follow my lead. I will make sure that he will be trapped in his own trap" I said and smiled sweetly

"A sweet devil, indeed" sabi ni Kris

"Mas mukha ka pang demonyo kaysa sa akin noh!" singhal ko

"Wag ka na sumagot, nasa harap tayo ng pagkain"

"Ay may favoritism talaga! Nagtatampo na ako, susumbong kita kay Calliah baby ko. Pag ako pinapagalitan, pero si Lia hindi sinesermunan?"

"Doon ka magdrama sa Calliah mo" sabi ko.

"Mi amor" Jai looked at me and talked to me using his eyes.

Binelatan ako ni Kris at nagtuloy na sa pagkain

I just pout at kumain nalang rin.
