Dream

Robin's POV

"Saan ka na naman nanggaling kambal?" tanong ni Magnus nang nakasalubong ko siya. Ang kamay niya ay nakahawak kay Amara na ngayon ay may malaking ngiti habang nakatingin sa akin.

"Hey, babe," bati ko rito at hindi pinansin si Magnus.

"Anong akala mo sa akin? Hangin?"

"Princess!" nakangiting bati ng ni Amara. "Are you sad?"

I bit the insides of my cheek. "I'm not, why?"

"You look sad..." she pouted. "You want flowers?"

"Would you give me one?" umupo ako sa harap niya at hinawakan ang kanyang pisngi.

"I want," she nodded. "My mommy said no, I can't make flowers..."

"Why?" tanong ko kahit alam ko na ang dahilan.

"B-because..." Habol niya ang kanyang hininga habang nagsasalita. Her round pink cheeks look so cute. "I might summon darkness, mommy said."

"Your mom is right," I ruffled her hair. "Why don't you ask your dad to teach you?"

"Daddy said soon..." she sounded so excited. "I can get flowers from the garden for you," she jumped in excitement.

"Kalma," tumatawang awat ni Magnus sa bata. "Baka hingalin ka."

"I'll wait for the flowers, okay?" I kissed her cheeks and let her hug me for a second.

"How about me?" tanong naman ni Magnus.

"Princess only this time," Amara moved her point finger at Magnus as if she was saying "no".

"May favorite ka?" tinaasan siya ng kilay ni Magnus.

Pati bata inaaway.

"I know you're sad too, but I already hugged you," ngumiwi ang bata sa kanya.

I wanted to laugh but I forced myself to stop it. But what Amara said made me look at Magnus and stare at his eyes.

My twin is sad. We all know that.

"Tara na nga," he carried Amara.

The little princess waved her hands at me so I waved back at her. Nakatitig ako sa likod ni Magnus.

Was I a good twin? Was I a good sister?

My twin has battles on his own and I feel like I wasn't there enough for him.

"Hey," bati ni Lady Adelaide sa akin. "Nakita mo ba si Amara?"

"She's with Magnus," I answered.

She nodded and smiled at me. The gentleness of her smile made me want to smile too but I didn't.

"Si Magnus sana ang sasabihan ko ngunit ikaw ang nandito," aniya. "Pinaghahanap ng empress si Prinsipe Blair, kanina pa daw niya pinapatawag."

"I know where he is," I said. "I'll go get him."

"Salamat."

I went outside of the palace, it has been days since I last went out and met our people. Days? Or was it weeks already?

I can't seem to show my face to anyone especially when I know that some know about my relationship with an enemy.

I looked up to the inn. "This little fuck," buntong hininga ko.

Plenty of descent place and he chose to fuck around in an inn.

"Where's my brother?" tanong ko sa matanda na nagbabantay sa tuluyan.
