"You seem really close to Charlize." biglang sabi ni Walter kaya napatingin ako sa kaniya.
We are currently in his room kasi inaayos ko ang mga dala niyang gamit na nagkakalat sa center table.
"You think so?" nakangiti ko namang sambit at ipinagpatuloy ang ginagawa. "We've been really close since Assylria days. I'm glad that it seems like nothing has changed." I added.
"Tss."
Napasulyap naman ako sa kaniya dahil wala na naman siyang sinabi, instead may kinuha siyang book sa shelf at naupo sa bed niya at tumahimik.
Weirdo.
Kinabukasan, Walter asked the Archduke to call everyone for a meeting, it includes the family of the Archduke, and his relatives who were currently residing in his land, as well as 'yung mga namamahala sa mining business nila.
I was just standing next to Kienjohn behind Walter. Nakapalibot naman sa malaking mesa ang mga taong ipinatawag niya.
They started talking about the matter. Walter was just listening to them. I don't know exactly kung ano ang dahilan bakit nandito lahat ng taong importante sa lugar na 'to.
"We've concluded that this matter is not just a normal incident." sabi ng assistant ng Archduke.
"Not a normal incident? Then what!?" mataray na sabi naman nong isang babaeng sa tiningin ko ay relative ng Archduke or maybe ng asawa niya.
Napatingin naman ako kay Charlize when she suddenly sighed loudly. Then napatingin rin ako sa dad niya, he is coldly looking sa babaeng biglang nag comment. At napatigil nalang ito at biglang natahimik.
Hmm... I guess the authority of the Archduke's really something.
"We will conduct further investigation with the help of the royal family." the Archduke said.
"It is really that serious?" biglang tanong nong isang matanda.
"Yes. Someone's been plotting active bombs. We still don't know what's his deal. But we will soon find it out." seryosong sabi ng Archduke which made everyone murmured.
Napatingin naman ako kay Kienjohn and then kay Charlize. I guess, Charlize's intuitions really true, ang lakas talaga ng pakiramdam ng babaeng 'to.
After that meeting ay nagsimula nang umalis ang mga tao. Naiwan naman kami together with the Archduke, Charlize, and her mother.
"Nahuli niyo ba ang nag tanim ng bomba?" the Archduchess asked.
