Chapter 26

ELEENA'S POV

Naalimpungatan ako ng may kumatok. Bumangon agad ako.

"Come in" sabi ko at humikab. Bumukas naman ang pintuan at nagulat ako ng bumungad si Felisha and...

Princess Meraki??? Anong ginagawa nila dito?

"Oh! Did we disturb you? Akala kasi namin gising kana" sabi niya. Napatingin naman ako sa orasan at 6:30 pa. Ang aga paaaaa!!! Gusto ko munang matulog!

"No, it's okay. Kakagising ko rin lang" sabi ko at ngumiti. Langya! Gusto ko pang matulog.

"Btw, What are you both doing here?" Tanong ko. Nagtinginan naman sila at tumangin sakin si Felisha.

"We're planning on take a stroll outside with you. Since bago lang punta mo dito" sabi niya at ngumiti. Tinignan ko si Princess Meraki at tumango naman ito.

Ngumiti naman ako at tumango.

"Then, I can't say no to the two beautiful Princesses" sabi ko at tumawa. Napatawa naman si Felisha.

"Come on, Get ready. Pagakatapos nating kumain aalis agad tayo. We also bought clothes for you tow wear" sabi ni Felisha. Lumapit naman sakin si Princess Meraki at inilahad ang isang kahon. Binuksan ko ito at isang traditional dress nila ito pero di dress. Di ko namalayang magkaparehas pala sila ng style ng damit pero iba ang kulay. Magkaparehas din sakin yung design pero violet yung kulay sakin.

"Thank you" I said and smiled. Tinulak naman ako ni Felisha papuntang banyo.

"We'll wait for you" sabi niya.

"Do we have to call the maids for you?" Tanong ni Meraki. Agad akong umiling.

"There's no need for that Your Highness" sabi ko.

"Meraki will do" sabi niya at umupo sa sofa.

Well, she's not bad after all.

I started to take of my night gown. Agad akong lumusob sa bath tub at sinimulang sabunan ang katawan ko.

Thinking that his memories came back made me feel glad pero may humaharang sa damdamin ko na galit. Even if saddest person would be happy if the memories of the one they love came back. Remebering that starts to appear all ge did to me. Those sufferings... Di ko siya mapapatawad sa ginawa niya kay Anne at Obi. He nearly take the lives of one of my precious love ones.

Giving him another chance would still be hard for me now. Ilang taon na ang nakalipas pero masakit parin. Napabuntong hininga nalang ako at umahon. Isinuot ko ang bathrobe at lumabas.

"Come here, let us help you put the clothes on" sabi ni Felisha. Tinulubgan nila akong isuot ang damit. Buti nalang nandito sila para mag suot. Di ko rin alam kung para saan yung ibang alahas na nakalagay.

"Done" sabi ni Meraki at hinatak ako. Pinaharap niya ako sa salamin.

"Felisha, would you mind to do this job?" Tanong ni Meraki na ikinataka ko.

"Sure! I'm pro to this one" sabi niya at lumapit sa buhok ko. Nabigla ako ng may lumabas na magic circle. She started to blow dry my hair. Langya! Sana may ganito rin ako.

"Done!" Sabi niya. Tumingin ako sa salin at tuyo talaga yung buhok ko. Sinimulan namang suklayin ni Meraki yung buhok ko.

"Your hair is beautiful" sabi niya.

"Yeah, when I saw her at the celebration in the palace. I can imagine her with a moon. She really fits well in moon and stars. She's like shining in the dark" sabi ni Felisha na ikinatawa ko.

"Well, Eleena means the on who shines in the dark" sabi ni Meraki na ikinatigil ko. Caspian also once told me about my name. Napailing naman ako.

Stop thinking about Caspian for now Eleena!

"I envy you for being smart Meraki" sabi ni Felisha.

"You just have to read books to know that kind of stuff Felisha" Meraki replied.

"Done" she said. Napatingin ako sa salamin at bumagay ito sa suot ko. Nakalugay lang ang buhok ko at may ornament na nilagay ni Meraki sa gilid.

"Thank you" I said ang smiled. Di lang makapaniwala na dalawang prinsesa ang nag aayos sa isang keeper lang.

"Let's go!" Excited na sabi ni Felisha.

ZANE'S POV

I pick up the bow and look at the knights preparing for this sh*t. Gising na ba kaya si ngayon? I want to see her. Nandito kaming lahat na mag pri-prinsepe at nandito rin si Caspian.

Ishid invites us to join his favorite past time. Archery.

"Allen, kumusta na kayo ng kapatid mo?" Tanong ni Ishid. Nakita ko namang bumuntong hininga si Allen.

"Still hasn't change. In the past days she broke my door again and she literally set our garden to fire. Worst than that she nearly killed my Pet! " frustrated niyang sabi. Napatawa naman si napatawa naman kaming tatlo nina Kiel. I look at Caspian and he was just staring at the target.

Tsk!

"Wala kang magagawa niyan. Kapatid mo siya eh. Nagmana sayo. HAHAHA" tawang sabi ni Ishid.

"Mahiya kanaman sa kapatid mong ubod ng lamig" sabi ni Allen. Yeah, I started to get curious why is his sister like that? It's the opposite of his attitude.

"Ohh? You like his sister?" Ngising sabi ko. Kumunot naman ang noo niya na ikinatawa ko.

"Are you crazy Zane? She's not my type. I would even prefer Lady Eleena instead of her" sabi niya na ikinaseryoso ko.

This prick!

"Pfft!!! HAHAHA! You should have seen your face!" Tawa niyang sabi. Tumawa naman si Kiel na ikinasimangot ko. This man should have to defend me.

"Hey, Hey, Hey! My sister is the cutest in the whole universe! You don't have the right yo say that" simangot na sabi ni Ishid. Yeah, even if Meraki was like that his brother still loves her.

Kahit baliw rin yung kapatid kong Christina, mahal ko rin yun.

"Felisha! Slow down. Madadapa ako"

Napatigil naman kaming lahat at tumingin sa hallway ng palasyo.

Napangiti naman ako ng makita si Eleena hinahatak ni Felisha. Meraki also followed them with her usual expression.
They were also wearing the same slothes but with different colors. Bagay na bagay kay Eleena yung kanya.

"Hayst! Pati ba naman yan di niya pinapatawad" ni Allen.

"Beautiful right?"

Napalingon naman ako kay Kiel.

"Yeah" ngiting sabi ko. Nilingon ko si Caspian at nakatitig ito kay Eleena.

Tsk! She won't be yours anymore Caspian.

"Felisha!" Tawag ni Allen. Napalingon naman dito si Felisha at sumimangot.

"WHAAAATT!!!??" sigaw nigaw niya na ikina iling ni Allen. He motioned on coming here. I saw Felisha rolled her eyes and walk towards us.

"This brat" rinig kong bulas ni Allen.

"Pfft" pigil tawa ni Ishid.

"What? I have some business with my two friends Allen. Don't disturb me"pikong sabi ni Felisha.  Humarap naman siya sa amin at bumati.

"Hi" sabi ko at ngumiti naman si Eleena.

ELEENA'S POV

Bumati kami sa kanila at nakita si Caspian sa gilid kasama si Alejandro. He was staring at me. Kung nakakamatay ang pagtitig patay na siguro ako kanina pa.

Humarap ako sa kanya at bumati.

"Greetings, Your Majesty" sabi ko at nag bow.

"Let's go Eleena. We have lots of things to show you" rinig kong sabi ni Felisha.

May lumapit naman kay Prince Ishid na isang kawal.

"Your Highness. Handa na po lahat" sabi ng kawal at umalis.

"What are you guys doing?" Rinig kong tanong ni Meraki.

"Were having a tournament with His Majesty" sabi ni Prince Ishid at itinaas ang bow.

"Why don't you join us? As far as I know Meraki and Felisha is skilled in using bow" sabi ni Kiel. Tumayo naman si Caspian at tumabi sakin pero nakatingin lang siya sa mga prinsepe.

"They can join us right, Caspian?" Sabi ni Kiel at ngumiti. Tumango naman si Caspian na ikinasimangot ko.

Akala ko di ko siya makikita ngayong araw. Bwiset naman oh!

Naghanda naman sila at isa isang kinuha ang mga pana. Inilahad naman ni Prince Ishid ang isang pana sakin.

"You'll join right?" Sabi nuya at ngumiti.

"I apologize Your Highness but I'm not good on using a bow" I politely said.

"She prefer on using Gorye" singit ni Caspian na ikinatigil namin. Kailan pa siya tumipo ng na sumingit sa isang usapan.

"His Majesty is right. I'm very sorry" sabi ko.

"Oh, that's too bad. Its okay, You can watch us" sabi ni Prince Ishid at binaba ang bow.

"What's gorye?" Tanong ni Meraki.

"It's a thing that uses in a shooting game. I guess you haven't seen one of those" sabi ni Prince Allen.

"Of course, Why would I ask if I knew it already? Idiot" sabi ni Meraki na ikinagulat namin.

"Ishid, pasalamat ka nagtitimpi pa ako sa kapatid mo" pikong sabi ni Prince Allen.

"Meraki, mind your manners" sabi ni Prince Ishid.

"You look Beautiful today" rinig kong sabi ng katabi ko. Napalingon naman ako sa kanya.

Tumingin naman siya sakin at ngumiti ng konti na ikinakunot ng noo ko.

What did he eat today? San pwede i pukpok yung ulo niya?
