“Is it true that all of you just want is power? That’s why you’re all nice to me?? And saving us is just an act to gain our trust? Tell me” Instead of saying what’s on my mind. Tila umatras ang dila ko at nasabi nalang na.
“thank you for saving us” Hindi siya agad nakasagot.Sa wakas ay hinarap na niya ako. A genuine smile is plastered on his face.
“ What? I didn’t quite hear that? “
Nakangiti niyang inilapit ang tenga niya sa akin. “ I said thank you for saving us..” Being satisfied to what he heard he smirk.
‘what is it this time?’
“ that’s why you owe me one request” humakbang siya papalapit
“ hulaan mo ang gusto ko Princess Clumsy”
Nagsalubong ang aking kilay sa aking narinig.
“ Perhaps you want to win the competition so that you and your kingdom will gain power?” I seriously said.
Nagbago bigla ang kaniyang expression. Naging seryoso ito. Kinabahan ako bigla sa kaniyang magiging sagot sa akin. Bakit ba bigla bigla nalang lumalabas ang mga katagang iyon. I blurted out those words without even thinking.
“ Saglit lang..” he look pissed.
“ So your thinking that we save you both just for our own benefit?”
Nakita ko ang pagtaas baba ng kaniyang balikat. Hindi ito makapaniwalang ibinalik sa akin ang kaniyang tingin.
Kinalma nito ang kaniyang sarili tapos ay hinarap niya ako.
“ You know what, instead of thinking that we’re your enemy. Why waste your energy to something that your not certain?” Naglakad siya papalapit sa akin.
“ I guess you haven’t fully trust other kingdoms.” Napailing ito. I could feel his sincerity. He look at me with a serious expression but his eyes.
“ Gayung nasayo na ang buong tiwala namin.” He looks disappointed and hurt. .
He walk away leaving me with so many questions in my head.
He’s just messing with my mind right? But why do I feel like I was wrong the whole time? That they are truly loyal to our kingdom?? Why do I feel guilty for saying those words to him in the first place?
Did I just test him by asking those questions?
Is he really telling the truth?
DAYS HAVE past since our uncle kidnap us. My father didn’t punish him with death, instead he’s punishment is lifetime imprisonment. I walk in the hallway after finishing my daily training. The palace is quite for days now.
They are still preparing for the last challenge that is soon to happen. And they already announce who will face each other. Zane vs Aillard, Chase vs Emerson.
The two winners will fight each other one on one until only one can win.Everytime na makasalubong ko sa hallway o kahit sa labas ng palasyo ang kambal na Prinsipe.
Karaniwang si Cliff lang ang kumakausap sa akin.
I always gave him a genuine smile after we talk casually. Karaniwang nagbibigay galang lang si Prince Chase, ngunit ramdam ko ang malamig nitong titig sa akin.
Alam kong napansin din yun niCliff pero hindi siya nagtanong tungkol doon.
Well I don’t care anymore, are relationship was professional in the first place.
I was about to close the door of my room, when someone stop me. “Your Highness” I raise my gaze as I heard his voice. I sigh and open the door. I cross my arms in front of me as I gave him an impatient look.
