"Did you bring the things you'll use? Personal belongings?" Walter suddenly asked habang naglalakad kami papunta sa carriage na sasakyan namin papunta sa North border.
"Yes, of course." simpleng sagot ko naman.
"Good." sabi niya at saka naunang umakyat sa karwahe.
Napangiwi nalang ako at pagkatapos ay sumakay na rin naman. I just sat in front of him.
Habang bumabyahe kami ay tahimik lang kaming pareho. He's busy reading something sa documents na hawak niya while I am busy looking at the view ng mga nadadaanan namin.
I am not really in the mood kasi nag aalala talaga ako sa lakad na 'to.
"Aren't you bored?" biglang tanong ni Walter kaya napatingin agad ako sa kaniya, he's already looking at me at nakasandal na sa inuupuan niya habang naka patong ang isang kamay sa may bandang bintana.
"Not really." I simply replied at muling tumingin sa labas ng bintana.
We're already quite far from the Capital. Hindi ko na makita ang mga buildings.
"It will take us about three days bago makarating sa Norte. So basically, we'll be looking for inns to sleep at night." sabi nitong kasama ko.
I just sighed. I know. Alam ko na ang tungkol jan. The North is quite far from the Capital just like the South.
"I'm sure there are inns on our way so we won't have to worry." tanging sabi ko nalang using a calm voice since ayokong mapansin niyang medjo nag aalala ako sa lagay ko ngayon.
Although I prepared everything na kailangan at kakailanganin ko, hindi ko parin maiwasang mag overthink.
Buong byahe ay nag kwentohan nalang kami at umidlip rin ako kasi nakaka antok naman talagang mag travel.
Hindi ko lang alam dito sa kasama ko.
When the sun sets ay nag decide kaming mag stop over sa isang inn, para syempre palipasin ang gab'e at makapag pahinga.
Good thing I have my own room. Medjo nakahinga ako roon.
"Please come to my room after you change." Walter said before he enters to his room.
I just simply nodded at pumasok na rin naman ako sa room ko which is katabi lang nong kaniya.
'Yung mga kasama naming knights naman ay hindi ko alam kung nasaan, but as far as I know, they're just going to stay at the carriage and guard us, most especially the Crown Prince.
