"Greetings, it's an honor to be at your presence again, your majesty. Glad to see you're healthy." magalang na sabi ko habang nakayuko sa harapan ng Empress.
"Thank you for coming, Daniel. Please take a seat." aniya.
"Thank you." I politely said again bago naupo sa upuang nasa harapan niya.
I am suddenly called here. Why me? bakit palagi nalang ako? I'm sure regarding na naman 'to kay Walter and Princess Yvonne.
I received a letter from the Empress last night, and ang context ng letter is kailangan kong pumunta rito ngayon, hindi niya sinabi kung anong dahilan but I know for sure that's it's about Walter and Princess Yvonne.
"I read all your letters. You were sick days ago?" aniya habang nakahawak sa teacup.
"Yes, your majesty. I apologize, I wasn't able to write a report." sabi ko naman in a nice and formal way.
"Hm, it's okay. Good to see you well again." sagot niya naman at ininom ang laman ng teacup na hawak niya.
Kinuha ko naman 'yung naka-serve sa'kin at dahan dahan itong ininom while waiting for the Empress to speak kung bakit niya ako pinapunta dito even though alam ko na naman kung bakit.
"It seems like my son is somewhat starting to open his heart to the Princess." biglang sabi ng Empress.
Ah... satingin ko rin.
"She's always at the Prince Palace, right?" tanong niya naman.
Agad naman akong tumango, "Yes, your majesty."
"Hmm... and Walter is always there to accompany her. That's great. He's starting to accept her. I know Princess Yvonne could make my son softer." nakangiti niyang sabi.
I just simply nodded again. Yeah, I'm just here to listen, anong karapatan kong mag sabi nang opinyon.
I'm also thinking na baka nga Walter's trying to accept the Princess. Or maybe, he accepted her already.
"It's a great progress. Keep on watching them and report everything they do to me." the Empress suddenly said.
But I wonder, do they really want Walter and the Princess together? it is just for business or they're really serious making Princess Yvonne the Crown Princess and the next Empress?
Because as far as I remember. Pinagtatagpo nila ang dalawa just because of business...
"Your majesty, can I ask you something." I suddenly asked nang magkaroon ako ng lakas ng loob.
"Hmm? Go ahead." she replied and with a single nod.
