"I guess it no longer work too?"
It took all just to not look at the disappointment present at her face. Robbie, Adam and Russle were on their knees as she sat at the edge of her bed. They felt like they failed her.
Looking at them with their heads down she sighed and smiled. "Wala na tayong magagawa, mukhang times up na para sa exchange videos?"
Hindi na napigilanna i-angat ang ulo niya, just to see what kind of face she was making. "But Princess", Contrary to the distraught he was expecting. "Princess?"
Tinapik na land ni Lily ang Balikat ng dalawa pa niyang kaibigan na siyang nakayuko parin. "Come on, lift those handsome faces" the moment they did, she gave them a bittersweet smile. "It cannot be helped"
"Pero-"
Bago pa makaangal ang mga ito, "I was ready for this, I knew it" looking in their eyes. Hinintay nila ang susunod niyang sasabihin, "Before that stop looking up at me like that" napatawa siya sa mga itsura nilang parang mga bata na nag hihintay ng bed time stories. "At least grab some chairs and look at me like you usually do, Ang tangkad niyo eh" seeing them not moving, "Go on, I won't start it if you won't do what I say"
Mas lalong napangiti siya sa pag mamadali nilang kumuha ng upuan sa harap niya. "Good boys"
Treating them like kids, napabuntong hininga nalang sila.
"Come on Princess..."
Narrowing her eyes at Adam playfully, she started looking at the pen now in placed on her lap as she began fiddling with it. "We broke a lot of rules, Kahit na alam naming ganito ang mangyayari. The calls, Video calls, Recordings... All of them dahan dahan nauubos na ang way of communication namin. Dahil sa ilang oras na pag sasama namin"
"You're not planning on doing something drastic again to get him here-"
"I'm not that impulsive Russle Sunbae, Pag ginawa ko yun. Last time na naming mag sasama... I know..." A tear finally escaped her hazy eyes on the pen. "I will perish" Looking at them. I love him so much para bigyan ko siya ng ganung sakit. Lalo na hindi ako ganung ka selfish para ilagay ang kaharian to chaos."
They started seeing her in new light, ang akala nila she is a damsel in distress in nee dof guidance and her husband to set her straight. Oh boy, what a big mistake.
"Wow" Adam smiled at their princess. "You grew up alot, since nag hiwalay kayo princess"
"I'm proud of you Dear" Russle added as she looked up at them just to look down again. Napatawa pa nga ito sa mga sinabi nila. "Princess?"
Hindi nola alam kung bakit umiiyak na tumatawa siya at the same time. Sending out worried glances to each other. Except kay Robbie na inggil nalang sa dalawang lalaking kasama.
"She may not look like it" paturo pa niya kay Lily gamit ang baba niya. "Pero she thinks about the welfare of everyone despite of her act"
"Act?"
Napatingin si Robbie kay Lily na siyang namang tumango senyales na siya na ang mag tutuloy ng sasabihin niya.
"Ever since nung last time naming mag kita, I did a lot of research and thinking all based on experience and reactions" napangiti nalang siya sa mga itsura ng mga kasama na hindi makapaniwala. " And bottom line, Last time na talaga yung physical meeting namin, limited na rin ang calls na naging recording na naging video calls" Sighing, "I acted like hindi ko alam ang lahat... Ayaw kong masyadong malaman ni Nathan na Alam ko na lahat"
They stopped and looked at their princess. No now they are already looking at their queen.
