Princess In Disguise(Royalty Series 1)

Epilogue

"I want to see dad, La. I want to find him. Why can't I?" nagsimula na akong mainis.

Ilang beses kong hiningi na makita ang ama ko lalo na nang malaman kong buhay ito. I'm forbidden to see my mother. I don't even know why. Maliit palang ako pangarap ko nang makasama ang pamilya ko. I never felt my father's warm hugs and hear my mother's sweet voice. It's like a dream that I cannot reach. And I would never be.

I was always wondering why my cousin Xin doesn't play around with me. He often goes to his father since we were young. I mean, we're still kid yet he already thinks about the business. Well, I thought our business revolve with ship tranportation, plantation, lands, and Velasquez Corp, but it didn't stop there.

Time comes and I found out about our family businesses. I was terrified knowing it was legal but they were acquainted with illegal persons. Syndicates, human trafficking, illegal use of guns and terrorism...

Orgues...

But when Lola and uncle said its a good thing and it can also help me to find dad. I didn't interfere nor commented at them. I would do everything just to have my parents back. Nagbulag bulagan ako. Nagbingibingihan sa mga kasamaan nila.

I stared at the piece of paper in front of me. My eyes twinkle at the moment. I can meet my father! Uncle gave me a ticket to US to finally see him. Pero hindi tulad nang inakala ko ang mangyayari. I saw how my uncle's man pointed his gun to me.

He used me as a bait to catch my father.

He saved me, I saw him for the first time. the first touch of his hand to my head wants me to cry.

But everything needs to end. He left me again for no reason, I think. Wala talaga akong alam sa mga nangyayari. My uncle tried to kill me but I turned blind to it.

Nagpasya akong pumunta sa pinakamalapit na mall. I want to enjoy the moment as long as I'm here. I'm still lucky though, Isang hangin lang ang hinihingahan namin. Kahit isang beses lang nakita ko siya I'm already satisfied.

Pero hindi doon natatapos ang swerte ko. I was fifteen that time...

And there, I saw the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my entire life. Ang umaalog niyang buhok ang isa sa pinakamaganda niyang katangian. I bet it would look better if its blonde. Still, her current hair suits her. When I met her eyes, there's a feeling in me thinking that blue eyes suit her more.

Her eyes are as cold as an ice but I don't know why I still feel warm with her. May kung anong init na bumalot sa puso ko at halos makalimutan ko na ang ipinunta ko dito.

I couldn't stop myself from thinking about her from time to time, years had passed pero hindi parin nawala ang babaeng iyon sa isip ko.

Nababaliw ka na Xavier!
You only seen her once, do you think you would cross paths again? Stupid thinking...

Nakakabaliw ang pakiramdam na ito.

Everything is so boring to me. I reconcile with my uncle. Pero walang araw na naramdaman kong safe ako kasama sila. Even though it is dangerous.

I need a family. I dont want to be alone.

Iniwan na ako ni dad, anong mangyayari sa oras na mawala pa sila sakin. I need my grandma too, so, there's no choice but to forgive him.

Araw araw, walang espesyal na nangyayari sa buhay ko. Pasok sa school, makakasama ang mga barkada, pero kahit ganun. Hindi parin sapat. Parang hindi parin sapat at may kulang pa sa buhay ko. Like I'm waking up every morning because I was waiting for someone who will fulfil me, my life.
