"Gonzalo, I'm late, aren't I?" Madrid was still buttoning his suit when he finally arrived at the palace. Gonzalo Martin is his father's assistant private secretary. Alam niyang ito ang inutusan ng Papa niya para sunduin siya sa labas ng palasyo.
"Yes, you are, your highness," Gonzalo smiled at him tighty. At the age of 57, he is still working for the royal family as if he's only in his 30's. Mahigit dalawampu't walong taon na kasi itong naninilbihan sa pamilya nila. Gonzalo not only has been his father's private secretary but also a friend to their family, "The luncheon already started. Kanina ka na rin pong hinahanap ng hari."
"Fuck," He cursed under his breath. He'll really be dead later. Sa lahat, ayaw ng Papa niya ang dumating na late sa mga importanteng okasyon o mga state events, especially involving politics, "Gonzalo, smell me. Is it obvious that I came from a club last night?"
Ginawa naman nito ang sinabi niya at inilapit ang mukha nito sa balikat niya, "No, you don't, your highness."
"Thank god, I didn't even take a bath dahil dumirecho na ako dito. Hindi ko alam kung bakit kailangan ko pang umattend sa meeting. I'm not going to be a King either way. My older sister is the crown princess. I'm just a spare."
Ilang minuto naman ay dumating na sila sa malaking dinner hall ng Southwing ng palasyo. Madrid immediately noticed the government staff and leaders of the country and his father talking to them. Nandoon din si Tamara, ang nakakatandang kapatid niya katabi ang bakanteng silya. On the opposite was Merida, his father's second wife and their stepmother - who was also sitting beside his two younger half-siblings, Pancho and Amalia - although he's just months older than Pancho.
Napatigil naman ang lahat nang makitang dumating na siya. He smiled awkwardly at them and proceeded to his seat beside his older sister.
"You are late, Madrid Anselmo." His father announced loudly as he finally sat on his chair.
