"Good morning and welcome to the Crown Prince Palace, sir." As soon as I got out of my carriage, I saw Kienjohn waiting for me in front of the Crown Prince Palace.
"Good morning, sir Kienjohn." sabi ko naman.
"Please, you can call me Kienjohn nalang. I'm just a low ranking knight." sabi niya na ikinatawa ko.
"I'm just also a son of a Count. You can also call me by my name then." sabi ko naman sa kaniya.
"It's impossible, you'll be the Crown Prince's aide. It'll be disrespectful for him if we won't address you correctly." sabi niya.
"No it's not, if there is no critique of course." sabi ko habang natatawa pa.
"Just guide me nalang papunta sa Crown Prince office. We can't afford to be late on our first day." nakangiti kong sabi.
Tumango naman siya, "Please follow me, sir." Natawa rin ako dahil sa pagkagalang galang naman niyang magsalita.
So we both headed to Walter's office. Nasa hallway palang kami ay may bumabati na sa amin mostly sa akin na mga maid and other knights na present. I guess, they heard about my arrival today. At nakaka pressure naman talaga ha.
"Sir Daniel have arrived." Kienjohn said as soon as we arrived in front of Walter's office.
He opened the door and pinapasok ako. Anyway, that's the rule of the knight, kaya hindi na ako na confused.
As soon as I enter, I saw Walter na sobrang seryoso habang nakatingin lang sa papel na nasa hawak niya. Take note that he isn't in his table, I mean, hindi siya naka-upo sa chair niya, he's instead sitting in the table, at talagang naka side view pa siya sa dereksiyon ko, which is totally captivating dahil nakikita ko ang perfect shape ng muka niya.
"Daniel..."
Ang perfect naman ng hubog ng katawan at ang perfect rin ng muka ng lalaking 'to. Napaka unfair naman ng mundo.
"Daniel? Hello?"
"Ha?" Nagulat naman ako when he suddenly snapped his finger in front of me, nasa harapan ko na pala siya, jusko naman.
"Ah, good morning crown prince, how was your sleep." sabi ko naman, trying to surpass my embarrassment.
Naku naman Daniel ang aga aga and take note that this is your first day of work, lutang ka na agad.
"Are you okay? Mukang wala ka sa sarili mo, are you nervous or what?" sabi ni Walter naman as he went back to his table dala dala parin ang papel na hawak niya kanina.
"I don't know, maybe because this is indeed my first time." sabi ko naman.
