EIGHTWOON KINGDOM

Chapter 19

Thief

ROUXBIGAEL

I should be sleeping pero nakaramdam ako ng kaba.

Hindi ako makatulog. Yung diary kasi, nakakakonsensya.

Hindi ba nakonsensya si Gavrielous? Masyadong extreme yung ginawa namin sa Reyna. Tama ba yung ginawa namin? Mali yun pero... Ugh. Mapagpahangin lang nga.

Lumabas ako sa kwarto ko, sana di ko magising si Dominiqueu.

Nagpahangin ako sa may terrace, nako jusko. Kinakabahan talaga ako.

"Miss Roux?" lumingon ako at nakita si Andreuw. Naging ka-close ko rin. "Uy" bati ko sa kanya.

"Are you okay?" tanong niya, umiling naman ako. Honest is honest. "Why?" tanong niya uli, "Hindi ba't masyadong extreme yung ginawa namin sa Reyna?" tanong ko, "Yes it is pero, that's part of our lives, a little rebellion and some breaking of the rules" sagot niya,

"How can you say so?" tanong ko, "I've been through that all, and it's normal, to young teens like us? It's very normal, I guess the Queen can understand that" he answered.

Bigla namang sumigaw ang aming Reyna kaya lahat kami napatakbo.

"IT'S GONE!" sigaw ng Reyna, "There's a thief in here! Bring back my Diary or else!" nagbanta siya, oh gosh, what have we done?!

"Gavrielous, Andressen, Jehroughe and Polaighne, search them!" sigaw ng Reyna, "What's happening?" narinig namin si Kairanelle na papungas-pungas. Lagot.

"MAYBE IT'S YOU!" assume ng Reyna, lagot tayo. Iba pa naman kung makareact ang aming Mahal na Reyna.

"What?" nagulat ang inosenteng Kairanelle, "Maybe it's your lover! GO! SEARCH THE PEASANTS!" sigaw ng Reyna, well, we can't blame her. It's her diary.

Balik mo na kasi Gavrielous, madadamay ang lahat eh! At dahil ayoko na talaga ng mga ganitong sitwasyon, agad ko nang linapitan si Gav.

"Give it back to her, or else..." I threatened him. "I just can't give it back, we need to find more clues!" he whispered back, "What? You mean those facts you've just announced earlier are not enough? Stop this Gav, or else, I'll tell the Queen!" I told him.

"Rouxbigael, you don't understand" he said, "No Gav, I understand it clearly, that you want to know more about the Queen because she is the one who is intervening in your relationship with Harlionne!" I shouted, "No, Rouxbigael, no!" he shouted.

"MY QUEEN!" I shouted, I looked back and saw Gavrielous, nearly crying. "HAVE YOU SEEN IT?" the Queen with furrowed eyebrows asked me, "Uhm, no but.. ugh"

Hesitations. I hate you.

"Nothing, my Queen" I just answered and she rolled her eyes on me.

"Rouxbigael, give me more time, please" he cried, "This is too much Gavrielous, too much" I said. "I'm sorry" he said.

Mga ganid.

Kaawa-awa naman ang aming Reyna. Mga walang puso!

"Calm down" narinig ko naman ang Hari pinapakalma ang Reyna. "It's just a diary" sagot din ni Prince Nikolai, "No, you don't understand, that diary is like the history of Eightwoon kingdom under my ruling, I just can't let it get lost" sagot ng Reyna, oh no.

They need to give it back.

The kingdom was in an uproar.

Lahat ng iyon ay dahil lang sa isang diary na ipinagdadamot ni Gavrielous.

Lahat na yata ay kinukumbinsi siya na ibalik na. Pero wala, mahal niya talaga si Harlionne.

"Ito kasi yun Gav!" sinigawan na siya ni Narcissus, "Nang dahil lang diyan sa pagmamahal mo kay Harlionne ay hahayaan mo nang mawasak ang kaharian natin? Dahil lang diyan sa pagdadamot mo?!" siagw ni Narcissus at di naman makasagot si Gavrielous.

"Sigurado ka ba na kayo na talaga hanggang dulo?" sigaw pa ni Narcissus.

"And even if you find the reason why the Queen is like that, that will never change the Queen's heart! It will only cause us more trouble! Give it back and admit it already!" si Mondragone naman, keep it going boys.

"Gavrielous, ibalik mo na" nagsalita si Harlionne kaya nanahimik ang lahat.

"No, I won't let our relationship end, Harli, I love you" sagot ni Gav sa kanya, eww.

"I know that, but do you think hiding that from the Queen is proving that you love me? You can prove it when you fight for our love, not stealing and lying to the Queen whom she had her trust in you" sagot ni Harli, point taken.

"Yeah, Harli's right, Gav! You are one of the highest position and when the Queen know about that, she ain't going to be happy" sbai naman ni Brillianna,

"The Queen gave her trust to you and you're going to break it anyway? Do you know how many people here wanted that position and you're just going to contaminate that position?" sabi din ni Bernadette.

Keep it on guys. The Queen is coming. Let the truth be revealed!

Narinig naman yata nila yung mga yapak ng Reyna kaya dali-dali silang nagsipuntahan sa mga post nila. Nang makita namin ang Reyna, ay kita ang mugto sa kanyang mga mata.

Gav, give it back already~

Ang ganid mo!

"Hey" tumingin ako at nakita si Keanelle, "You think he's blinded?" tanong niya, "Blinded by the truth" sagot ko, "It's creepy though, it's the first time he acted like that" sagot niya pa.

Gavrielous, pleasee, ibalik mo naaaaa.

Nang makalayo na ang Reyna ay bumalik nanaman kami sa pagkukumbinsi kay Gavrielous.

"Harlionne, please, don't let me do this" iyak ni Gav, "I will let you do this, give it back or else I'll break up with you!" sagot ni Harli kaya nagulat ang lahat,

"You serious?" nagulat si Brillianna, "I'm dead serious, we are talking about the Queen's condition and our kingdom also, I will save it before anything else, that, including our relationship, Gavrielous" sagot ni Harli, wooh.

Hard.

"Harli, don't!" sigaw ni Gav, "Oh no dears, you must give her diary back" narinig namin ang Hari, "Gav, please" sabi ko, sumosobra na siya. Ano ba kasi nakita niya dun sa diary kaya ayaw niya na ibalik?

"THIEF!" nagulat kami sa biglaang sigaw ng Reyna, oh no. Big trouble.

"So you had my diary all time long?! How dare you!" nagulat kami nang bigla niyang sinampal si Gav. "How dare you! I put my trust in you and you just break it?" sigaw pa ng Reyna.

"I can't believe this Gavrielous, I can't believe this!" sigaw ng Reyna, "Forgive me, I was tempted" sagot ni Gav, not enough reason.

"What did you saw inside?" gigil na gigil na tanong ng Reyna at di naman makasagot si Gav kaya sinampal niya uli. Ouch, that hurt. "WHAT IS IT?!" sigaw pa ng Reyna.

"My family died because of you that's why you put me in this position" sagot ni Gav kaya nagulat kami. WHAT?!
