TRANSMIGRATED

Zabrina's Pov

After they dress me up and finish messing up with Estella's hair, umalis na sila. Samantala ako naman ay naiwan sa loob ng malaking kwarto na pinagdalhan sa akin kanina.

Napatingin ako sa labas ng bintana nang marinig ang mga taong naguusap mula sa ibaba, sa isang hardin. Kaya napagpasyahan kong lumabas ng silid at tumungo sa may hardin. But before I can even go out of the room ay humarang na kaagad sa akin ang isa sa mga maids sa labas. I thought they left me? Akala ko lang pala.

"Where will you go, Milady?" tanong ng isa. I smiled at them awkwardly and was willing to enter the room again when they called out for me as say...

"The emperor is giving you the permission to go out for a walk, but you have to return before the sun sets" dagdag nito. Kailangan pa ng permiso ng hari bago makalabas? That's isn't fair. I sighed. Atleast I can still go around the house.

"Princess?" napatingin ako sa kanila at huminga ng malalim. I'm not yet used being called princess though.

"I'll be going out, then" wika ko at nauna nang umalis sa kwarto na iyon and they followed behind me. I almost forgot that Estella is a Princess From another empire, that's why they are treating her like this. But I still don't get it. I want to know the story, her story.

"You don't have to follow me, I can go by myself" sabi ko ulit sa kanila nang makarating kami sa gitnang hallway ng palasyo. But they look at each other as if they are not sure what to say.

"I'll make sure that the emeperor will never know about this" and I wink at them to make them feel relieved. Wala na silang nagawa at hinayaan na akong maglakad papalayo.

As far as I remember about the novel, Estella never had this kind of treatment when she's still the daughter of the Vallenuoli Duke. She was never given the attention of the maids and butlers inside their house,  at lalo na nang dumating si Diane. Dahil dito na halos nagsilbi ang lahat ng katulong.

*thump*

Ouch! Napaangat ang tingin ko sa taong nakabangga ko sa hallway. A man who is masculine and tall. He have a jet black hair, crystaline eyes pointed nose, reddish lips and perfect jawline. In fact, the man who I just bump with is handsome. But who is he?

He didn't bother to apologize and he continue to walk forward as if he didn't bump me. Nilingon ko ito at napakunot ang noo ko. He is wearing the same clothes as the emperor. Ang pinagkaiba lang may kakaibang symbol ang nasa damit niya. And that isn't the Lunarwart Empire Symbol that the emperor had. I think he is a duke or something...

"Sorry!" I shouted at him before I started walking again. Nakakahiya naman kung hindi ako magsorry, eh ako naman ang hindi nakatingin sa daan kaya kami nanagbungguan.

Ilang minuto ako nagpaikot ikot dito sa loob ng palasyo at hindi pa rin ako nakakalabas. Ahh! I'm so tired! Bakit ba kasi ang laki laki ng lugar na ito! And I think that parang naliligaw na ata ako. I sighed. Nagpatuloy ako sa paglalakad dahil baka sakaling may makita akong daan ngunit habang papalayo lalong tumatahimik ang paligid.

I wish someone would be here...

When I enter a hallway again, nakita ko na isa sa mga kwarto ay bukas ang pinto. I don't know why but I feel something is pulling me to go over there. Atleast, I have found a room to stay in. Til they found me. I entered the room and I never imagined that it would be a library.

Woah! This library is huge! It's as big as Estella's room! Dali dali akong pumasok at sinara ang pinto. I look over the place and it's full of thick books. Nagpunta ako sa isang bookshelf at naghanap ng librong babasahin. Ganon din sa kabila at sa iba. I can say that ilang taon na sigurong hindi nakakatikim ng linis ang library na ito.

I got dissapointed when I didn't saw any novel books in these shelves. All of them are about history and theories. Napasalampak ako sa isang upuan at humiga sa lamesa. Pero pagkahiga ko doon ay may nahigaan akong isang maalikabok na bagay kaya napaatras ako. Nang makita ko iiyo, I'm surprised when I saw it's bbookcove, parehas na parehas ng libro na 'I am the duke's daughter'.

Binuksan ko ang aklat ngunit hindi ito mabuksan. I look at it's every corner kung may lock ito pero wala. Bakit hindi ko mabuksan? Pinilit ko itong buksan, at dahil nagpupumilit ko ay nahulog ito. Arrgghhh! That caused a big smoke! Napapikit at napaubo ako dahil may pumasok atang alikabok sa mata at lalamunan ko.

Nang mawala ang usok, pinulot ko ang libro sa pinagkahulugan nito. Ngunit nang pupulutin ko na ito I saw another book beside it. It's just a handmade book where they pile the papers using yarns. Though it is entitled...

'Reincarnation'

Hmm? Pinulot ko ito at tinignan itong mabuti.

Sa pagkakatanda ko,

Reincarnation happens when the person's soul have been reborn. That means the person died and have been born again.

Napaisip ako, what If this isn't really a dream? And the truth is I got reincarnated in this world? The fact that I never knew this events will happen, what if it's my other life? But the question if that really happens, did I die as Zabrina?

Nakatulog lang naman ako pagkatapos magbasa ng isang kwento at ngayon ay nandito na ako sa loob nito. But the twist is I entered the last part and begin another story about the villainess's life.

"Ahhhhh this is so frustating!!" napasigaw na lang ako sa dami ng iniisip. If ever I did transmigrated, what is the cause of my death? Iyan pa ang isang tanong na tumatakbo sa isip ko.

I opened the book and read the first page. It is written first what is the meaning of reincarnation and how does it happens.

The next page is about who can experience reincarnation. It says, only people who had magic power in his/her body can do that.

When? it's either eclipse or when blue or red moon appears.

What will happen? it's either the person will forget his or her memories or their memories come along with them as they reincarnate.

Marami pang nakasulat akong binasa but that is the only thing I remembered. Napahikab ako, I'm feeling sleepy after reading this book. But..

Napalingon ako sa may pintuan nang bumukas ito. Who would come in this hidden room? I saw an old man entered the room like he owns it. Is he the librarian of this library? Because he look one.

"Hmm? Milady what are you doing in here?" tanong ng matanda. Tumayo ako sa kinauupuan at inayos ang mga librong pinakielaman ko dahil baka magalit ito.

"Oh please, let me arrange them, I'm honored that the Princess visited the library during her first night" wika nito at nagkunwaring nagpunas ng luha. But I didn't give him attention. Napatingin ako sa bintana nang kwarto dahil sa sinabi niya, at ngayon ko lang napansin na madilim na nga. I'm too occupied while reading the theories about reincarnation that I forgot the time! Baka hinahanap na ako ng mga maids!

"Sure, Sir, I have to go!" Paalam ko at dali daling lumabas ng library na iyon. Pero bago ako makaalis ng tuluyan ay naalala ko ang libro na hindi ko mabuksan.

Balak ko sanang dalhin ito sa kwarto ko but when I came back, wala na ito sa lamesa. I asked the librarian if he saw that book and set it aside but he says that he didn't.

Maybe hahanapin ko na lang ulit iyon pagbalik ko dito. Yeah, babalik ako dito, and that's for sure...
