A hundred miles from here is the camp of zamianians soldiers. Hindi ko na talaga alam kung anong susunod na mangyayari. This scene was never on the novel!
"Lady master! Hindi po ba talaga kayo aalis dito? Delekado po kase eh! Alam niyo naman na papalapit na ang muling pag atake ng kalaban."
Sabi ng jolly na myembro ng untouchable guards na nag ngangalang seven.
Kasalukuyan nga pala akong nakatayo sa taas ng city wall, looking at the vast empty field which looks calm and peaceful but hides danger in it.
"Hindi na. Mananatili ako dito at magiging isang totoong bida ng kwentong ito."
So kahapon, napunta pala sila sa montedor mansion dahil sakin. Ipinag utos kase ni leo na una akong ihatid sa madrigalaz city dahil nga sa delekado na ang sitwasyon. At first i really wanted to go but my mind changes.
I saw dungis watching the soldiers in training with admiration. I asked him if he ever wanna become one someday.
He replied me with a no. Then said.
'Not just a soldier. I wanna become a general--wait no. I wanna become a great general.' Napangiti ako sa tinuran nito. I can't believe he is this ambitious.
Muli ay tinanong ko ito. 'Why not a soldier? Why does it have to be a great general? Aren't both saving lives? Or are you chasing for the salary? Para sa hinaharap, you'll live a comfortable and luxurious life?' Tipid itong napangiti. Pakiramdam ko talaga minsan isang matandang lalaki yung kausap ko na nasa katawan lang ng isang bata.
'I wanna make this world become better. A world, where war wont exist anymore. I wanna become a general who will win without sacrificing any of my soldiers life. Pangarap ko po kase yun.' Sagot nito.
'Eh ikaw ate? Ano po bang pangarap mo?' Tanong nito.
Nung oras nayun hindi ako nakasagot. Buong gabi din ako nag isip kung ano ngabang pangarap ko. The first thing that came to my mind was my main goal which is to survive here then live a peaceful and comfortable life. But then, i felt something was wrong. I was imagining my life as that and i was indeed happy. I felt happy. But i feel like something is missing. I dont know what it is but then i came across a novel. Nakakalat lang ito sa bedside table ng silid. I read it for like straight 5 hours hanggang maabutan na ako ng umaga. And with that, i manage to find my long lost dream way back when i was the same age as dungis.
Back then i really loved reading fairytale books. I love happy endings more than sad one's. I hated sad ending back then.
Dati, pinangarap ko ding maging isang babaeng katulad ni merida, she's an adventurous princess, spending her days practicing archery, riding her horse and exploring the world around her or be like mulan who fought against the enemy to protect her home country despite the danger, also, she was a girl disguise as a man so the story was kinda exciting!
I wanted that kind of life! That kind of story for me to experience. But that dream was slowly buried as i woke up to reality. Getting bullied by my classmates, those dreams slowly disappeared. How can a weak person like me become a person like merida or mulan? My confidence slowly disappeared. My enthusiasm vanished.
Now that i think back of it. Hindi ko mapigilang tanungin ang sarili ko kung bakit hindi ako noon lumaban? Ano bang kinakatakutan? To the point that it even made me took my own life!
Napatingin ako sa kamay na umabot sakin ng isang supot ng candies. Its leo.
I don't know if im seeing it right but i felt like he's looking at me with softness in his eyes. Remember the day when i was on the run and accidentally run into him, that day i casually called him 'hon' as i wanted to escaped those men running after me, mistaken me as an assassin but he coldly ignored me.
"The sweetness of the candies can make a person feel better. Atleast, for my experience."
Sabi nito. Napansin ata nito sa nagtataka kong reaksyon nung tinanggap ko ito.
Wala naman ako sa sarili kong napaatras ng bigla nalang nitong itinaas ang kamay niya as if trying to reach something from my head or was he trying to hold it? But then after he paused for a few second because of my automatic avoidance, he continued to reach for my head anyway and then after, he showed me a few leaves that he got from my head. So it was stuck.
Isang matamis naman na ngiti ang inilabas niya na siyang nagbigay ng kaunting gulat sakin. The leo from the novel rarely smile. Even if he does, its only on special occasion with clemen----waitt.... I am clementine.
But we just know each other! At first leo didn't trust clementine right? That's why he was cold to her. Why now?
"Pinuno may------"
Hindi natapos ang sasabihin ng kawal ng biglang isang pamilyar na lalaki ang sumingit at bahagyang yumuko samin bilang pagbibigay galang.
"Da------?"
Gulat na sambit ko ng bigla ako nitong pinutol.
He's here! I can't believe it! He's wearing a black robe like for warrior outfit and not a casual wear. Then on his right hand he was holding a long sword, and his hair! As i told earlier, damien ravanna has long white hair! This time it was black and it was tied in a bun hairstyle, with a few bangs at front which makes him more attractive.
"Greetings your highness. Im called Black. Your father, Lord Prince Waquin sent me here to protect you."
Sabi nito sabay pakita sakin ng identification card na nagsasabing elite guard ito sa Madrigalaz City Royal Household.
Just what the hell is happening?! How come damien is here? But is he really damien? And an elite guard of the madrigalaz city royal household? Seryoso?
