I want to know more about Hiro. That's when we decided to visit his house. Pero, hindi lang ako ang curious sa pagkatao ni Hiro, pati ang classmates ko. So Hiro invited us all. Laking gulat na lang namin, nang huminto ang car sa harap ng isang magarang mansion--- with a tall gate, water fountain, and beautiful lights sa front lawn. Pagbaba naming lahat sa sasakyan, we were all impressed. Lalong lalo na ako.
"Oh, my gosh, Hiro!"
Lumapit sa akin si Hiro at hinawakan ang mga kamay ko.
"It's time for you to know kung sino talaga ako, Katy-", Hiro said.
But he was interrupted by my classmate, Geeky Molly!
"Wait! Dito ka nakatira?! Sa 15 Kensington Place? Official Address of the Royal Family of Amorea in the Philippines?! "
For a moment there, I was puzzled.
"Royal family? Hiro... ibig sabihin-"
Hiro just nodded and smiled.
"Yes, Katy. I'm a prince. Heir-to-the-throne in our country. 'Yon ang dahilan kung bakit tinago ko ang identity ko...Dahil ayokong ma-intimidate ka... or kahit sino sa inyo... I just want you to see me as a simple guy who's so in love with you. "
OMG talaga! I didn't expect this. Pero mas lalo akong kinikilig. So I put a smile on my face and faced Hiro.
My life is perfect! Just perfect! Sinong mag-aakala na ang knight-in-shining-armor ko is a true-to-life prince charming?!
One of my friends even shouted.
"Hindi ka na lang basta Queen Bee, Katy! Pwede ka nang maging real queen someday!"
I shook my head... because that's not really what I want. Then, hinarap ko si Hiro.
"Hindi importante sa 'kin 'yan. All I want to be is the queen of my Hiro's heart."
For more than a minute, we stood there, face to face. I'm grateful, because I met you, Hiro... and I love you, not only for what you are but for what I am when I am with you.
