Monarchy Series 1: Keller Romanov

Chapter 15

Zaretcaia's POV

"Here. Wear this." Sabi ni Keller sabay abot sa'kin ng puting maskara.

"So it's a masquerade party?" Takang tanong ko.

He smiled and nodded. Kinuha ko nalang ang maskara at nang i-try ko ay napangiti ako dahil bagay sa'kin.

Keller said that he was invited to a party and he want me to come with him since he don't want me to stay here alone.

Hindi naman ako umangal para makalabas na rin sa lugar na ito. Kahit gaano pa kaganda ang lugar, minsan, magsasawa ka nalang talaga.

Siya na rin ang nagbigay ng susuotin ko. A white gown with some glitters on the side of the dress. The gown's color was already a highlight but the design itself shows how elegant it is. Kahit nga ako ay nahihiyang suotin ito pero wala na rin naman akong magagawa.

It's not that this is my first time wearing this kind of dress but knowing the price of it made me feel like a first time.

"Shall we?" Nakangiting pukaw ni Keller sa'kin at nang pinasadahan ko siya ng tingin ay napangiti ako lalo.

The three piece suit really looks good on him. Mas nakikita ang kakisigan niya. Then add his handsome face, I know, on the party later, girls will have their stiff neck looking at this gorgeous man beside me.

"Why are you frowning?" He asked when he noticed that I frowned and winced.

I sighed. "Nothing. May naisip lang akong nakapagpasama ng timpla ko."

"What is it? Are you okay?" May pag-aalalang tanong niya.

I smiled at how worried he was while looking at me. "Wala nga sabi. Tara na?"

"You sure?"

I nodded. "Let's go." I said as I put my hands on his left arm.

His smile widen. Yumuko siya at binigyan ako ng mabilis na halik sa labi dahilan para matulos ako sa kinatatayuan.

"Can't help it." He said as he chuckled.

Nakababa na kami pero hindi pa rin ako bumabalik sa tamang wisyo. This guy can take my breath away in just one move.

Napailing nalang ako.

"Hello mahal na mga ibon!" Gleinn greeted us with his very weird greetings.

"Anong mahal na mga ibon?" Takang tanong ko.

He grinned. "You know the tagalog of lovebirds? That's mahal na mga ibon. 'Mga' kasi 'birds' 'yon eh, dapat marami. Plural daw tawag do'n eh." He explain to us like it was a Greek mythology that needs to be explain of.

Keller sighed beside me. "Alright, fvckers, enough with your lecture thing. Where are the others?"

Tinuro naman ni Gleinn ang itim na van at binuksan. Tumambad sa'min ang mukha ni Range na lukot na at si Heimer na malaki ang ngiti habang may dalang selfie stick at cellphone.

"Shut the fvck up, asshole!" Inis na sabi ni Range kay Heimer.

Instead of wincing, Heimer smiled even more. "Papaturo lang naman ako pa'no mag-vlog. Uso 'yon ngayon eh."

Hindi na maipinta ang mukha ni Range nang hinarap niya si Heimer. "And I don't have any fvcking idea about that crap!"

Hindi ko alam kung matatawa ako o sisimangot sa pagiging isip bata nila at pagbabangayan. Sure they are in their late 20's but they act and think like a 7 years old kid.

"Sinungaling!" Heimer snap at Range. "Nakita kita! Pinapanood mo 'yong vlog ng kaibigan ni Za---" Tinakpan ni Range ang bibig ni Heimer kaya hindi na natapos ng huli ang sinasabi niya.
