Hi Guys! This is the epilogue of this story. It's been 2 years and a month since I published this book and yet, it will just end this year (2020). Thank you for letting me grow in this app. Thank you for being with me through this journey, I've met a lot of people who taught me how to do that and how to do this. I will forever be grateful for the things you have taught me. Thank you, always, for patiently waiting on updates. Love y'all. ❤️

Lance's POV

It's been 8 years. Hell yeah. Eight-effin-years without her at my side. Nang dahil sa digmaan na iyon nawala siya sa piling 'ko. Sa piling na'min ng aming anak. Our daughter's name is Annarea Lan, I named her after Andrea. I miss her. Hanggang kailan? Hanggang kailan ako magtitiis na hindi siya kapiling? Yeah, there are a lots of girls, women actually, who tried to win my favor but no one comes close. It will always be her. She's the best and will always be.

"My King, the other Kings and Queens are here." Malugod at may galang na sabi ng tagapagsilbi. I became a king with my daughter as a princess. Me, a king, without a queen. The first one on the history of this world.

"My King." Sabay sabay na bati ng aming mga kaibigan, yes, they also became a leader on their respective kingdoms. Hindi naman dapat ako ang magiging hari ng mundong ito, it's just that, Andrew marry Aqina and as the Water Kingdom's Princess, she must rule their kindome because Walter became Earthy's husband.

"We are so excited to see you, Lance!" Masayang ani Aqina habang naka-kapit sa braso ng kanyang asawa.

Magsasalita pa sana ako nang biglang bumukas ang pintuan ng silid kung sa'n kami naroroon. It is my daughter. My pissed daughter. Hmm. Mabilis akong bumaba sa aking trono at sinalubong ang aking anak. Hindi pa ata niya napapansin ang ibang mga hari't reyna na nasa harapan at naka-ngiting nakatunghay din sakanya. She looks like Andrea. Ni isa ay walang namana sa akin, bukod siguro sa buhok nito na kulay pula, ngunit unti-unti na ring nagiging itim dahil siya'y lumalaki na.

"Father, sorry for interrupting your talk with the other royalties but someone pissed me off!" Naasar na bungad nito sa'kin habang pinapahiran ang kanyang pisngi.

"She looks so cute, Kuya." Dinig 'kong sabi ni Flerra. Of course, she's my daughter.

"What happened?" Mahinahon 'kong tanong. "Who pissed you off?"

"It was Kiel!" Nanggigil na ani niya. "He kissed my cheeks! Papa, how can I wiped out his kiss?!" Hindi na bago ang sumbong niyang iyon. She's pertaining to Airon and Eartha's son. Their playful son, just like his father. Palagi nitong inaasar ang aking anak kaya sanay na kami.

"Ohh, baby princess, did he pissed you off again? As his parents we are so sorry." Nakangiting ani Eartha tila ba natutuwa sa nangyare. Hindi lingid sa aking kaalaman, she's shipping her son with my daughter. Well, it's ok for me but still, my daughter's choice will always win, but based on what I observed tila ba napakalaking impossible ang hinahangad ni Eartha. They are like cat and dog, they always fight.

"Baby, we will talk about him later ok? Play with the others first. We are just going to talk about something important." Ani ko at saka siya iginaya palabas ng silid.

Nang makalabas ang aking anak at saka kami nagsimulang magusap. Tomorrow is her death anniversary. My daughter is always asking her mother, all I can show her is her pictures. Masakit man para sa akin pero para sa anak 'ko. Para sa anak 'ko gagawin 'ko.

"So, what is your plan for tomorrow's event?" Andrew asked.

"No idea."

"It is the Queen's death anniversary, what are you trying to say?"

"I can't accept it."

"Accept it, Lance. She's gone. Yes, it is hard but this is the reality! She won't come back." Ok, Andrew is knocking some sense on me again.

"I know. Aryt? I know." Mahina kong pahayaga atsaka tumalikod na. "Plan for tomorrow's event, I'll just review it later. Dismissed."

Matapos 'kong sabihin iyon ay narining 'kong bumuntong-hininga ang isa sa kanila atsaka sabay sabay silang lumabas.

'Baby, It's hard.'

'You can do it, Babe. It will be over. Soon.' I heard her, again. I started hearing two months after she died. I can communicate with her but I can't feel her. Her presence, I can't feel it, symbolizing that she is... dead. She said to me that it will be over soon. I will see her soon but when will that happen?

"My King, we have a news for you." Tila natatarantang ani ng kawal na nagbabatay sa labas ng palasyo.

"What?"

"T-the queen came back. She came back, alive."
