"I am happy to see you again, Savanah. But, what brought you here?" diretsong tanong ko.

"Her highness, I am also glad to see you again," she paused. Napabuga ito ng hangin habang nakatingin sa kawalan saka ito mapait na napangiti. "I am here because I am getting married to Prince Troye." she announced, then she took a sip of the tea.

So, that's why...

Inaamin ko na nagulat ako. This isn't suppossed to happen but because of my interference with the main characters, the story keeps on changing unexpectedly.

I don't even know if it is a good or a bad thing.

Tiningnan ko si Savanah, mukha itong may iniisip. She doesn't seem troubled, rather she was only in deep thought.

Well, the faith she gladly accepts is finally set. But now that she had someone she likes, she seems hesitant to do what she was told.

"But..." Her grip with the cup tightened.

Napailing ako. "But you got someone you like," sabi ko dahilan para mabilis na nabaling ang tingin nito sa akin. "You can be honest with me. Just like how I told you my worries before."

She smiled. "I am glad to hear that. Honestly, I do not think much of my feelings. I just thought that marriage is something I should do in my own will. Not because I was told or It was the best thing to do. I must do it because I wanted it, so that in the end I won't ever regret my decision."

I smiled upon hearing what she said. I was reminded of myself.

I discarded my own feelings but at the same time, I didn't want to regret my decision. I know very well, that it is a hard thing to do.

"Then, are you still going to marry Prince Troye despite of having feelings for someone else?"

"Yes," she immidiately answered that made my brows furrowed.

"Why?" maang na tanong ko.

She smiled. "Because that is the right thing to do. Sometimes, we must listen on our rational mind than follow our heart who is emotional and incapable of choosing the right thing."

The right thing?

Rational mind?

Savanah is really something. She will still do what she think is right despite having feelings for someone else. She can discard her own feelings just to do the right thing, while me, who kept on staying up late thinking how hard it is to divorce my husband...

Mukhang disidido talaga si Savanah na sundin ang ama niya. What a strong resolve she has.

I faintly smiled at her. "If you won't regret that you discarded your own feelings then do what you needed to do. But do not forget that every decision you made has it's consequences." Just like how I got cheated for stealing someone who isn't mine.

"I'll make sure not to forget what you said, your highness." she said.

Then we continued to talk until Savanah was called...

***

What now?

Kasalukuyan akong nakaupo sa harap ng asawa ko. It's been 10 minutes but we didn't say a word.

It's so awkward. It didn't help that he was intently staring at me.

Hindi ko na kaya 'to!

"The wedding will be held next month." nauna nitong pagbasag sa katahimikan.

Wedding? He must be talking about Prince Troye and Lady Savanah. So I guess, It is finally set.

"That's good to hear." I said softly. Natahimik ako. Ugh! Hindi ko alam kung ano ang uunahin ko. Should I ask him if he wants a divorce or i'll just tell him that I want a divorce? This is frustrating!
