Kahit napilitan ay wala na akong nagawa pa.
Nay Miriam offered tea on him. Nandito kami sa sofa sa may sala. Pinanood ko lang itong sumimsim ng tea nito.
Nay Miriam excused herself at makahulugan pa itong tumingin saakin. I know what she thinks. She might think that I'm still the stuterry Prince when the king is around, but I'm not anymore.
I just nodded at her with a faint smile. I just want to get over this with dahil talagang pagod ako sa araw na ito at gusto ko ng magpahinga. I don't know kong bakit gabing gabi na at ngayon naisipan ng hari pumunta dito sa may kalayuan kong mansyon. Maybe he was just mistakenly headed here.
Tumikhim ito kaya napunta ang tingin at atensyon ko sa kanya "how are you?" napataas ng palihim ang kilay ko sa tanong niya. Kong hindi ko alam ang kwento sa pagitan nilang mag ama ay iisipin kong may paki ito kay Casius dahil sa paraan ng pagtatanong nito sa kanya.
"I'm fine, your majesty" tipid ko ding sagot sa kanya. Mariin itong napatitig saakin na parang pinag aaralan kong si Casius parin ba ang kaharap nito. Marahil ay hindi nito inaasahan na mananatili akong komposado sa harapan niya gayong dati ay halos magmakaawa si Casius bigyan lang nila ng pansin at pagmamahal. It was kinda pathetic but on the other side I understand Casius point of view. He was some attention and love mula sa pamilyang dapat nagpaparamdaman sakanya niyon pero sadyang madamot ang mga ito. Bilib nga ako sa kanya dahil natiis nya iyon sa loob ng 18 years. He was so brave and tolerant towards them but everything has it's limitations. He got exhausted and tired of it kaya pinili nya ang mas madaling paraan para takasan ang lahat.
"by the way your majesty, I know it's impudence for me to ask you this but why are you here in the first place? Is there anything that I can help you with?" diretsa kong tanong sa kanya.
Pero hindi ko inaasahan ang magiging sagot nito sa tanong ko "you've changed. You're stares, your tone and your behavior. What really happened to you 3rd Prince Casius" he addressed me with the Prince title. So he still think of Casius belongs to the royal family.
I stared blankly as well to his blank expression. Hindi lang siya ang may kaya ng ganyang ekspresyon. I stared directly into the king's eyes "everyone changed your majesty. Even a mere animal stops to chased something when they realizes that it was already their dead end. I just realized that I should chased more the important things not the unimportant one's and besides I don't want to try to fit myself again and tired myself" makahulugan kong wika sa kanya.
I just want them to realized what have they lost. They have lost a precious gem when they are busied blinding themselves by their hatred towards Casius na wala namang kasalanan pero sakanya nila lahat isinisi. They have pinned everything on him.
They hated Casius dahil sa paniniwalang ito ang dahilan kong bakit namatay ang reyna. Yes they thought it was Casius fault why the queen died but little did they know it was the queen's choice to sacrifice for her son. It was her choice as a mother.
Hindi ito agad nakasagot at ito na ang pumiling umiwas. I left a smirk dahil sa unang pagkakataon ay ito ang unang nagbawi ng tingin. I look at the king. Casius father emits great power, dominance and independence. He was born to be a ruler of Valhoria but one thing I loathe about him.
He was a cruel father and unfair towards his other son, Casius.
Tumikhim ito bago nagsalita "I just want to inform you that you need to go to the palace 3 days from now. You need to stay there for atleast 1 week becauss your Fiancee, Prince Leonardo Vladimir Regalton is visiting you" pag aannounce nito bagay na kinagulat ko.
Inaantay ko na sabihin nito na isa lang biro iyon pero wala akong pagbibirong nakikita sa mukha ng walang emosyong hari. How did Casius have a fiancee and to think that it was a fucking Prince!
