Nang umalis ako sa garden at bumalik sa loob ng hall to find my family, hindi ko parin makalimutan ang mga sinabi ni Princess Yvonne. Kinabahan ako bigla, hindi ko alam kung anong ibig sabihin ng mga salitang binitawan niya. But I suddenly felt nervous and uneasy.



It's been a month that I've been watching her pero she never approaches me in that way nor even talked to me like that since every time na kinakausap niya ako ay palaging nandon si Walter. What's with her today?



"Hey, saan ka galing? Kanina ka pa hinahanap ng parents mo." Arianna suddenly said to me nang makalapit ako sa kaniya.


"Where are they?" tanong ko naman agad.


"Outside already." tanging sagot niya naman, I just simply nodded and nagsimula akong maglakad papunta sa labas with Arianna following me. Agad ko rin namang nakita si Vierro and mother Isabella.


"Daniel." mother Isabella suddenly mentioned my name after she saw me walking towards them, she's also talking to someone familiar, although hindi ko makita ang muka nito dahil nakatalikod ito sa gawi ko, it's just his figure especially his hair color looks familiar.


"I'll get going first." Arianna suddenly mumbled beside me, she bow first before leaving. Then I went straight to mother Isabella and to the guests she's having conversation with.


"Good that you're here already." mother Isabella said while smiling, "I would like you to meet the Count of the Dalian Kingdom..."


The man in front of her suddenly turns around kaya nakita ko ang muka niya, and that quite surprised me.


"This is Count Hilberto Ercellan. He is the Count in the Dalian Kingdom as well as the Grand duke's Vassal." mother Isabella added.


Nakangiti lang naman ang lalaking ipinakilala niya sa'kin. I also just smiled politely at him.


"I'm sure this isn't our first time meeting each other. Glad to see you again, Daniel." nakangiti nitong sabi.


I was a bit surprised as well as glad to meet him again, even though I just met him before without proper greetings and introductions.


"I'm also glad to meet you again, sir Count." nakangiti kong sabi as we've both shaked hands.


"Oh? You've already met before?" I heard mother Isabella curiously asked. Tumingin ako sa kaniya at tumango.


"Yeah, he was a student in Assylria Academy when I met him." Count Hilberto Ercellan said.


Kaya pala familiar siya sa'kin. If I remember right, he was a guest back at Assylria Academy and I think before ako bumalik ng Aesthenberg I met him again, that was the time I was out in a snack store with Charlize.


Although, we haven't really introduced and greeted each other properly before. I'm so glad to meet someone I've meet in Assylria.
