EMERALD ACADEMY: THE LEGENDARY PRINCESS

Epilogue

ASHTON' P.O.V.

Ilang taon na ang nakalipas nang mangyari ang digmaan sa pagitan namin ng mga darkanians. At sa ilang taon din na iyon ay hindi parin bumabalik si Krishzel. Its been five years since that war happened. Nang matapos ang digmaan at naibalik na sa ayos ang lahat, ay naging mapayapa na ang kabuuhan ng magic world.

Sa limang taon na nakalilipas at hanggang ngayon ay iniintay ko parin ang pagbabalik ni Krishzel.

Pinanghahawakan ko ang huli niyang sinabi saakin na babalik siya na kahit na parang malabong mangyari ay hindi ako nawawalan ng pag-asang magkikita kaming muli. I hold to her promise and I will wait for her even it will take even 2 decades more. She's my life, she's my everything and she's the only one I will love for the rest of my life.
Isinuot ko na ang white coat na ibinigaay saakin ni Athena nung nakaraang araw. I don't really know what is the celebration is all about but they just told me to wear this formal suit because there would be a great celebration in Gemstone Kingdom. From my coat down to my slacks pants is all white. Even the shoes I wear its all white.

Humarap ako sa salamin at tiningnan ang sarili kong repleksyon. I can't ignore the fact that this suit fitted me well. I fixed my hair based on my outfit.

"Ashton, lets go. Naghihintay na sila sa labas." Rinig kong sambit ni Harry mula sa labas ng kwarto ko. We are no longer a students of Emerald Academy, because we already graduated 3 years ago.

Bago pa man ako lumabas ng kwarto ko ay nagtungo muna ako sa side table ng kama ko at saka kinuha ang picture namin ni Krishzel. Every time I look at this picture I smile because I remember the time when we took this picture together.

"Krishzel, I'm still holding to your promise that you'll came back. I can't wait to see you again my love. Please come back now. I really missed you Krishzel." I kissed the picture and placed it on my table then I walk towards the door.

Nang makalabas ako ng pinto ay naabutan ko sina Harry at Andrew na nakaupo sa sofa sa sala.

"where's the girls?" agad kong bungad sa kanila nang makita kong wala sa loob ang ibang royalties.

"ayaw nila pumasok eh, nandun sa labas naghihintay. They are all excited ikaw nalang ang iniintay." Sagot saakin ni Andrew.

Ngunit agad akong natigilan nang makita ko ang kulay ng kanilang suot. They are wearing black suit, from their Coat down to their shoes is all black. Ngunit binalewala ko nalang muna ang bagay na iyon.

Nung una ay ayaw ko talagang sumama but knowing Athena she won't stop you until you agreed with her.

Lumabas na kami ng tinutuluyan namin at saka naabutan ko namin ang mga babaeng royalties na naghihintay sa labas.

"Ashton, why did you took so long?" pangbungad saakin ni Farrah.

"you know that I really don't want to come, right?"

"sorry, but anyways you look handsome." I didn't answer her back.

"Farrah girl, sure ako na magugustuhan sya nun. Hihihi." Agad na nangunot ang noo ko nang dahil sa sinabi ni Hydra. Hindi ko matukoy kung ano ang tinutukoy niya the reason why I asked her.

"What do you mean Hydra?"

"ahh, ehh... wala wala. Sabi ko tara na. Andrew honeybunch lets go na. Hihihi. I'm so so excited." Napailing nalang ako dahil sa ginawa ni Hydra. Agad siyang kumapit kay Andrew at pumasok na sa loob ng sasakyan.

Hindi ko pa paala nababanggit. Hydra and Andrew is on a relationship. After four months after the war, Andrew courted her and luckily Hydra answer him back with a yes. Same with Farrah and Harry they got into a relationship and even Athena, she already found his boyfriend. The prince of the new build palace here in Gemstone Kingdom, his name is Lance, the prince of Shadow Palace.

Nang makapasok sila sa loob ng sasakyan ay wala na akong iba pang nagawa kundi ang sumakay nalang din. I have no choice but to come and attend the so called party. It took 45 minutes before we reach the palace of Gemstone Kingdom.

Ngunit akmang bababa na sila ng sasakyan nang pigilan ko sila.

"wait." Agad naman silang humarap saakin at kunot noong tumingin saakin.

"kuya, lets go I want to eat na." singhal saakin ni Athena but I looked at her with my death glares.

"Athena, tell me honestly, did you just prank me so that I will look like an idiot? You all wear black and even the people here, then you give me this fucking white suit? What the hell Athena are you making fun of me?" imbes na matakot siya saakin ay agad na bumulalas ang tawa sa kanila nang dahil sa sinabi ko.

"kuya, relax. Everything would be alright, just stay calm and enjoy the party. You look handsome on that suit so better not to worry okay." Pagkasabi niya noon ay agad siyang lumabas ng sasakyan ganun din naman ang iba. And it left me no choice but to follow them and face the fucking embarrassment.

Nang makababa ako ng sasakyan, all their eyes are looking at me. I tried to gather all my strength and face the crowds, even that I felt like I want to vanish any second from now and scape this fucking place.

We headed towards the even hall where the celebration will happen. Kung nahihiya ako kanina dahil sa ako lang ang naiiba ang suot now mas nahihiya ako dahil sa loob ng event hall lahat ng tao dito ay nakasuot ng black. This is fucking insane.
Nagtungo kami sa pwesto kung saan kami nakaassign pero lahat ng nadadaanan ko ay saakin nakatingin and they even smile at me. I don't know if they are happy to see me because I am the Prince of Fyro Palace or they are making fun of me because I am wearing this fucking white suit. For pete's sake this is too much embarrassment for me.
Ilang sandali pa nang may musikang biglang tumunog. And the King and Queen even show theirselves on the crowd.

Tumayo sila sa harapan at agad namang nagbigay galang ang mga tao.

"Everyone, I would like to thanks you for coming to this very memorable and very important day for all of us. This day will be written on the history of our kingdom and you will be a part of it." Paunaang sambit ni King Kieffer.

Ngunit bigla itong tumingin saakin at saka ngumiti. I felt so small because they stared at me.
I gulp.

"Mr. Ashton Grey Hudson, can you join us in front?" nag-aalangan man ngunit wala na akong nagawa kundi ang pumunta sa harapan.

I felt their eyes looking at me but I tried to composed myself and walk like no body is looking.

Nang marating ko ang haraoang bahagi ng event hall kung nasaan ang stage ay mas nakaramdam ako ng hiya because I am facing all the crowds.

Agad na ngumiti saakin ang hari at reyna and I gave them a fake smile because I can't give them a genuine smile because of my embarrassment.

Ilang sandali pa ay dahan dahang bumukas ang pinto ng event hall at may isang babae na pumasok.

She's wearing the same color like mine. A clean white grown.
Hindi ko makilala ang babaeng pumasok sa event hall dahil sa layo ng distansya namin. Even the crowds are looking at her. But little did I know, nang malapit na ang distansya ng babaeng iyon ay mabilis na kumalabog ang aking dibdib. I can't believe everything that is happening. Hindi ko lubos akalain na siya ang babaeng pumasok sa hall. She walks like a princess and she really look gorgeous.

I smiled and tears started to fall from my eyes.
Nang makalapit siya saakin ay agad kong naibigkas ang pangalan niya.

"Krishzel." She smiled at me at wala na akong ibang ginawa kundi ang yakapin siya.

"krishzel I really missed you, I really am." I whispered to her ears and I felt that she chuckled.

"I miss you too Ashton. Sorry for taking so long, sorry for waiting for a long period of time. But now I'm here. Lets get married."

Agad akong naestatwa sa huli niyang sinabi but I composed myself and hug her even more tighter.

"lets get married. Because I won't let you leave again like that. I love you Krishzel, I really do."

"I love you too Ashton, thank you for waiting."
