My Royal Lesson (Kingdom University, #4)

Chapter 5

Chapter 5: Unexpected Meeting

As expected, a lot of articles about Kevin and Alice were published on the portal and they secured the top spots. I couldn't protect her because they might get suspicious of me if I kept on disapproving anything about her.

mugiwara: looks like Gisel got easily overthrown lol

kingtrex: relationship issues will always get the top spot

cafemocha: hahaha for real! pero iba rin ang batch na 'to ha, laging sila ang may issues

moonlight: eh paano dalawang royalty couple na ang nasa batch nila

moonlight: this one's new since hindi campus princess 'yung girl

mugiwara: but she's really pretty, I mean, she looks prettier than some campus princess

moonlight: hoy mugi ano yan! May crush ka ba sa kanya? Hahahaha

mugiwara: gago wala

mugiwara: porque sinabi lang na maganda, crush agad?

cafemocha: oo, feeling namin ganun kang klase ng tao eh

mugiwara: wow baka pag nakita mo ako magbago pananaw mo

cafemocha: yikes no thanks

I was just silently following their conversation and decided not to say anything. However, I got curious when I saw an unfamiliar word.

"Pananaw?" I mumbled as I flipped through the pages of the dictionary to find the word. "Ah, so it means perspective."

These past few days, the library had become my sanctuary. I hated it in high school because all the honor students were always there to study and research. Even now, Steff and Jess would stay here for their study sessions but I realized it wasn't just because of the silence and ambiance but the fact that students mind their own businesses without caring about what's happening around them.

I started writing on the notebook I bought yesterday. The Filipino words I learned were written with their English translation, meaning and sample sentence.

My focus instantly dissipated when my phone vibrated and a notification from Kingdom Nook popped up.

iamroyalty sent you a message!

I had to read the notification again in case my eyes were playing tricks with me. Wait, did he really send a message to me?

Still doubtful, I clicked the unread message and almost choked in shock.

Hi, Miss notaroyalty. I hope you won't mind but I just want to say that the Filipino sentence you wrote in the seventh chapter has the wrong tense. I'm sorry if this message offended you. I just sincerely want to help you improve :)

I thought he was just joking when he said he was reading one of my stories but here he was, pointing out a mistake in a specific chapter.

With my quivering hands, I carefully replied to his message.

No worries, I'm not offended. Thank you for pointing that out. Appreciated! :)

I immediately checked the chapter and saw the sentence he pointed out but I didn't know what to replace.

"Teeny-weeny, where are you going?" he asked.

"Anong pakialam mo?" I retorted. "Huwag mo nga akong susunod!"
