These past few days, my attention was focused on Elysse. But I didn't see anything unusual.

She's kind to everyone. My parents adore her. The servants love her kind nature. And she's always hanging out with me.

Although she easily cries when she talks about her embarrassing moments before.

Baka ganoon talaga siya. May mga tao naman talaga na mabilis umiyak o madaling matakot.

I remember a certain person. Right. But honestly, I don't like them. I never had a chance to be fragile, because my previous life never gave me a chance to do so. If I show a single weakness, my siblings or those who want to see me fall will just take advantage of it. So back then I hated that kind of person.

Anyway! As I have said, baka nagkamali lang ako. Hindi ko pa din lubos na kilala si Elysse. Maybe it's really in her nature to easily cry...

----

The day of her coming of age ceremony came.

Ugh! Damn it! What should I do? Parang sasabog na ang utak ko.

If I accepted being the crown princess, Lady Lavienx would surely hate me, but then I will be saved from that phsyco assassin.

But If I just let things be...

What will really happen?

Will that assassin really kill me?

Ahhhhh! What should I do?!

But all those worries kept me until the ceremony started.

"Presenting, the youngest daughter of Earl Terion Rosville, Lady Elysse Faith Rosville." The crowd applauded at her grand entrance.

Obviously, everyone was dumbfounded by her beauty. Elysse shines as she were descending the stairs. May mabining ngiti na nakapaskil sa labi nito. Her chesnut hair flew as if to entice the crowd. What a beauty! And that's the power of being a protagonist. Good for her.

Pero bigla akong natigilan nang mahagip ang isang pamilyar na mukha. So he's here. And looks like he's been watching me.

Itinaas nito ang kamay na may hawak na wine, suggesting for a toast and gave me his devilish grin.

Pakiramdam ko ay parang nanlamig ako at nakaramdam ng pagkahilo. That damn assassin!

I excused myself and made my way to the balcony to calm myself. But ofcourse...

he followed.

"Calm down, I won't hurt you. I'm just here to have fun." He then chuckled. But to me, it sounded so eerie.

Halos hindi na maipinta ang mukha ko pero nagawa pang tumawa ng isang 'to! What a bastard!

I sighed. "So, what will you do now?" I calmly asked, but the truth is that I'm gathering all my courage to act as if I'm not afraid.

"I saw the crown prince, but it seems he's not here for you. So, what do you think should I do?" makahulugan na saad nito habang nakangisi.

What?

"Ah, too bad then? So, are you here to get me and make me your slave?"

"Is that what you want?" He smirked. "I could do so, but I wouldn't... for now." He added.

Sa loob-loob ko, gusto ko na siyang sigawan. But damn. I'm scared.

So I did what I'm best. I smiled. "Then, I shall leave you for I am not needed... for now." I didn't wait for his reply and quickly walked away.

I went back to the hall. Nakita ko agad ang crown prince, he was dancing with Elysse!

Huh! Look at that... the story seems back on track.
