ALERIE: The Tale of the Fallen Kingdom

Epilogue

"Mom, dad please!!! Let me go with you I--I don't want to be left here " I said as tears keep flowing to my face. They are leaving me alone again. I hate in this big mansion of ours I feel lonely and scared at the same time. Even though our maids, guards and my butler are here with me.

"Sweetie, listen to me we can't take you there yet. So be a good girl while mommy and daddy are out of town okay? " Mom said while holding my cheeks and wiping my tears.

" Your mom is right princess wait for us we won't be takinh long to finish our business problem okay?" I sniffed then look at them

" Then I want some pasalubong po. I want some big bunny stuffed toy" I sadly said while playing with my fingers. They both laugh and gave me a kiss and hug before they left.

Seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and turned years of waiting they still didn't return home.

I've been waiting for three years and they still didn't came home. I'm finally a ten years old kid today.

A sudden knocked interrupt my thoughts. I hurried infront of the door hoping it's my parents but my hope vanished when I saw a sad looking lady.

" Are you perhaps Bela Celestine? " The lady asked me na kinatango ko.

" Who might you be po?" I asked

" I'm Anicka Criel your mother's adopted sister and she entrusted you to me" She said while looking at me sadly

" What do you mean guardian po? I still have my parents they're just in a business trip po" I said while holding my tears. I may be a child but I'm not that dumb para hindi sya maintindihan.

" I'm sorry they're already gone" lumuluhang sabi nya

" I know I saw it in my dreams. No need to say sorry Aunt. I saw everything and even them talking to you to take care of me. I saw that before they left me here. That's why I want to be with them I didn't tell them because I know they'll freak-out." I said making her look at me with wide eyes.

Who would have thought na I'm not a normal person at all. I who can see the future and I who have supernatural powers.She believed me after all we both are the same.

I know everything. I'm just their adopted daughter. I may be a child but I know something they want to know but everything about my real parents or where  did I came from is still unknown. The only thing my power can't answer as of now is all about my existence.

I Bela Celestine Criel one of what they call guardian. A guardian you don't want to mess with.
