The Rabbit Prince

Chapter Four

Leonille Roque

"Rabbit Prince?" I stopped chewing when she called my name. "Yes, Saoirse?" I responded.

"Naalala mo yung kanina, yung may ikwekwento dapat ako kay Bun-bun?" she put down her spoon and looked at me with a smile.

That's weird.

"I guess." I answered.

"Pwede ko bang ikwento sa'yo kung ano yun?" she asked. Why is she being so formal and kind all of a sudden? Who possessed this girl?

"O-of course." I stammered.

" 'Wag mo akong tatawanan ah, alam kong may pagka-judgemental ka rin." she said in a soft tone. Does it something to do with the ramen?

What happened to Saoirse?

"I promise." I was about to bow but I remembered that she doesn't like me being very obedient.

"Ano kasi..." she's turning red again. I didn't mind it.

"...si Leo, tinawag niya yung pangalan ko." Now she's smiling while looking like a cherry that's going to burst.

"A-are you okay?" I butted into her story-telling causing her to become normal again; and by normal, I mean, back at being scary. "Why are you so red?" I asked concerned.

"This is what you call kilig. Ugh!" she explained with those angry eyebrows. I found it cute when she crossed her arms and turned.

"I think it's also what you call blushing." I tilted my head to take a peek on her expression.

"I told you not to laugh at me." she faced me again while... 

oh no is this even real?

"Why are your lips like that?" my mouth widened when she pouted. "You promised something." She said and pouted again.

Another cute thing you can only found in Saoirse.

"I didn't laugh, I just smiled." I explained.

"Parehas lang 'yun." She snorted.

"By the way, this ramen is great." I commented and that brighten her a little bit. She put her hands down and carried her bowl. "Aish." She hissed after realizing that she had used her injured hand.
