Behind Me Is A Princess

Chapter 33

Memory

(Ethan's POV)

"So we got the 1st, 3rd and 4th lines. And yung sa 2nd line, I've been thinking about it for a while and I think it means echo. Kasi 'where you can hear the most cries'. If you connect that to the ones that we found out, it connects diba? If you scream at the mountain's peak where it's high, it's very likely that you'll hear echoes of your own scream."

Sabi ko kay Amaya. Andito kasi kami ngayon sa bundok, maglulunch na. Kanina pa kami naglalakad, nakakapagod. Di pa namin marating yung pupuntahan namin, kaya kakain muna kami. At habang hinihintay maluto ang cup noodles, pinag-usapan na naming ang riddle.

Tiningnan ko siya pero nakatulala siya sakin. O _ O

"Bakit? May something ba sa mukha ko?" sabi ko sabay hawak sa mukha ko.

"Haha. Wala! Namamangha lang ako sa galing at talino mo. Oh, ready na ang noodles. Kain na tayo."

"Hahaha! Ang bagal mo tumakbo!"

What was that?

Ano toh? Teka lang...

What's going on?

"Reah! Teka lang!"

"Haha! Hindi Reah pangalan ko!"

May nakita akong dalawang maliit na bata at ang nakakagulat dun eh yung babae kamukha ni Amaya.

Naghahabulan sila at naglalaro. Is this in... My mind?

"Pagnadakip mo na ako, ibibigay ko na sayo tong candy mo!" sabi nung little girl sabay behlat. Para talaga siyang mini version ni...

"What's wrong? Sige ka lalamig yan. Hindi masarap ang cup noodles pagmalamig kaya-"

"Amaya..."

That little girl's voice, parang si Multo Girl este yung naririnig kong boses sa panaginip ko. But, why does she look like Amaya when she was little? At pano ko naman malaman kung anong istura niya nung maliit pa siya?! Diba recently ko lang siya nakilala? Why would I...

Natapilok yung girl pero nahawakan siya nung boy just in time to stop her from falling.

"Uyy... Bak-"

"Omae wo mamotte ageru yo, Hime." (I'll protect you, Princess)

Oh sh*t.

Bat nakisabay ako sa boy?!

Yun din yung sinabi niya eh. And what's more, bat sinabi ko yun? Anong meaning nun? Ibang language kasi siya eh! Ano na tong nangyayari sakin! Bat ako marunong nun?

Tiningnan ko si Amaya at nakatulala lang siya sakin na gulat ang expression.

"Uhh... Amaya?"

"How do you now that phrase?" Tanong niya sakin na parang di makapaniwala sa narinig niya.
