"Papasukin mo siya, Peyton."
Narinig kong bumukas yung pinto nang sabihin ko 'yon, and I tried to sit upright from my bed. Nahirapan ako, but it was manageable.
Akala ko naman makikita ko ang prinsipe kinabukasan, or even the next day after that. Pero hindi ko inaasahan na ngayon ko mismo makikita yung taong hinahanap ko.
Peyton entered the room first, and soon enough, the prince was behind him.
His silver hair was pushed back, and he was wearing a military uniform. Nagtaka na kaagad ako sa suot niya. It's not something you'd normally wear for a visit. Saan siya nanggaling bago pumunta dito?
Nung makita ko yung mukha niya, he wore the same inexpressive face that I saw when I first came to him.
Was the situation that bad? Ngumiti pa nga siya nung huli kaming nag usap.
Although after that part is nalason na ako.
"You can leave us now, Peyton." Nilagay naman kaagad ni Peyton yung kamay niya sa dibdib, yumuko sa akin, at umalis sa kwarto gaya nga ng sinabi ko.
Leaving me with an aloof man.
"I was quite certain that I wouldn't be allowed to step inside this mansion again." Nagtaka kaagad ako sa mga salitang sinabi ng prinsipe para basagin yung katahimikan.
Nagbibiro ba siya? Or what?
"You sure do speak in jest, your highness." My voice came off coarse, dahil sa parang nanunuyo yung lalamunan ko. But it sure did give an effect na masama pa nga rin yung pakiramdam ko.
If the prince does have a conscience, siguro naman maawa siya sa sitwasyon ko.
Hindi ko alam kung nagkaepekto ba yung ginawa ko dahil hindi naman nagbago yung itsura ng mukha niya, but soon enough, he took off with quick strides to move to where I was.
Ni hindi man lang ako nabigyan ng oras para magulat, at nakita ko nalang na nasa leeg ko na yung mga kamay niya.
His hand felt cold to the touch. It was actually nice, but I didn't know what to make of that feeling.
"Your highness..?" Pinigilan kong malunod sa kagwapuhan ng male lead na 'to, and he was also too close for comfort na hindi ko na alam kung anong gagawin ko.
And he even smells nice!
I tried to compose myself as I waited for an answer, at mula sa leeg ko, unti unting napunta yung kamay niya sa buhok ko. And I could only watch him as his lips met the strands of my hair.
Napakagat na ako sa labi ko.
PINANGANAK KA BANG PLAYBOY HA!?
