The Reign Of Heart

Chapter 15: We are lucky enough

           TUMIGIL ang sasakyan sa malaking bahay na iyon, lumabas agad sya ng kotse at binuksan ang gate, hindi man lang naka-lock. Pinaalis na niya si Gewel at pumasok sa malaking bahay. Their house is still beautiful like before, tila hindi man lang ito na agiwan matagal-tagal narin syang hindi nakapunta roon, at ngayon nalang ulit sya makakapasok doon.

The house has huge door at malaki ang dining area, pumasok sya doon at naupo sa malaking sofa. It's been what? 3 years? They planned on building this house noong mga panahon na nalaman nilang buntis sya on their first baby, ang saya-saya nila noon.

"What are you even doing here?"
Napapitlag sya sa nagsalita and to find out it was Jared, Yro's cousin anu naman ang ginagawa nito dito at may dala pang pizza sa kamay.

"Ikaw dapat ang tinatanong ko niyan? Bakit ka narito?"
Aalis na sana sya ng pigilan sya nito.

He is in wearing those gray long sleeves and a slacks, galing ito sa trabaho at malamang kakauwi lang.

"Let's talk, upo ka"
Kilala si Jared bilang isang manyakis at ang pinaka playful sa kanilang magpipinsan, but now she can't even see his playful side na sinasabi nila.

Naupo naman sya at kumuha ng pizza sa box na nakalagay sa harapan nila.

"Pinapaupo lang kita, di ko sinabing makiki-share ka"
She rolles her eyes, at inalis ang pineapples sa pizza bago kainin.

"Anu ang gusto mong sabihin?"
Ayaw na niyang magpaligoy-ligoy pa at gusto na niyang makalabas dito.

"What is it this time Sunshine? Anu na naman ang pinag awayan niyo? I'm not being biased, pero can't you just talk about it?"
Oh, so tama ang hinala niya.

"Anu ang gusto mong palabasin, diretsuhin mo na ako Jared"
She close her eyes at naghintay lang sa sabihin ng lalaki.

"You are special, kaya nga patay na patay sayo ang pinsan ko. But let me tell you this, we have our own story in different kind of characters, and you with him is a bit frustrating hindi dahil sa pareho kayong hindi magpapatalo, but because of the fact na hindi niyo iniintindi ang bawat sitwasyon."
So, pagsasabihan na naman ba sya nito?

At anu raw special sya? San banda?

"We are a Machiavelli, at the early age of 3 we started going to school sabi nila we are lucky enough to be born rich and famous, pero hindi natatapos don lahat, behind those rich, fame and money, we are all people a human being to be exact. Our families were trained to become a leader at hindi lang yun, they have their strict rules, includes sleeping time, talking, actions in front of everybody and hindi iyon ganon ka dali. We are force to do things we don't usually do, hindi kami pwedeng umiyak sa harap ng Camera or infront of our people kasi ibig sabihin non mahina kami, hindi kami pwedeng makipagsalita sa reyna hanggat hindi sya nauuna. Royals like us don't show their emotions, bawal lumuhod, bawal makipag apir, bawal makipag usap sa mga tao na mababang uri, bawal mag PDA lahat bawal at nakakapagod iyon. Its a royal protocol that we must follow"
Dumilat sya at tumingin sa lalaking nagsasalita.

"We need to master the art of polite conversation, also etiquette and to tell you napaka hirap niyon, sa buhay na meron kami wala kaming choice, we are like a robot and was created to rule their people. We all suffered, yun ang totoo. But, among all of us ni minsan hindi nag reklamo ang pinsan ko, He was force to rule in the age of 21 at alam mo iyan, mas lumala pa nang naglayas si Camelia. Kapag may pumalpak they put the blame on him"
She didn't know what to feel, para na naman syang pinapatay sa sinasabi ng lalaki.

"Aanhin mo ba ang yaman na meron ka kung kapalit non ang kaligayahan mo? We all disagree on being arranged to someone we barely knew, pero para sayo naging madali iyon"
Ngumisi ang lalaki kaya tinitigan niya ito ng masama.
