*KEISHA ZEIN HUTTON's PoV*
"Is it really true that you're going to marry the Thistle Princess, brother?!" tanong ko saking nakakatatandang kapatid sa harapan ko na seryosong nakatingin sa malayo.
Nasa baba kami ng malaking puno dito sa Palace garden.
A simple tea time and alone time with my dear brother.
Kahit na busy siya sa Palace affairs, still he made sure to have time with his little sister which is very sweet of him kahit napaka suplado nito, still He's my precious brother.
"I have to marry someone anyways." sagot niya at humigop sa kanyang tea.
Napangisi ako. "Is that so?? I thought you agreed with father because you're interested with the Thistle Princess...." pang aasar ko sa kanya.
Kumunot ang kanyang noo. "Tha..that's nonsense! Who said that?"
Natawa ako sa reaction ng mukha ng kapatid ko. "Oh brother." unang sambit ko. "Kilalang-kilala na kita. You're embarassed right now!" tinuro ko siya at humagalpak ng tawa but still in a Princess way of laughing so hard. "I knew it!"
Sumimangot lang siya at hindi ako pinansin. I pout. "And speaking of, bakit ka naman pumayag na isang sulat ng marriage proposal lang ang ipapadala sa Thistle, brother. Thistle might think that this marriage alliance is just a bluff!"
"Ano bang dapat kong ipapadala? Besides, it's father who says that I should write a letter." sumimangot na naman siya. "What's wrong with that?"
I rolled my eyes. "Gosh! Brother! Really?! What's wrong with it? Everythings wrong! You should have went to see the Thistle Princess face to face and ask her hand for marriage!"
"So kasalanan ko pa, ganon?"
Bumuntong hininga ako. "You're the Crown Prince of Hutton, brother. Protect your image as the next heir."
Tinignan niya ako. "You don't have to worry about those little things, Keisha. " unang sambit niya. "And I'll make sure to make it up with the Thistle Princess kapag dumating na siya bukas dito." nagulat ako ng napansin kong sandaling ngumiti ang aking kapatid. "I'll protect her here."
Tumili ako ng mahina kaya napalingon siya sakin. "Behave like a princess, Keisha." striktong sabi niya.
Pero hindi ko pinansin ang kanyang abiso at inasar parin siya. "Hindi ko alam na may gusto ka pala sa Prinsesa ng Thistle, brother!" ngumisi pa ako ng malawak. Natatawa na rin ako dahil sa kunot na kunot na noo ng kapatid ko. "But wait..." napaisip ako at seryoso ko siyang tinignan. "Have you ever met the Thistle Princess, brother?" because as far as I can remember, hindi naman sila nagkita. Ako lang naman ang nakakita sa Prinsesa ng Thistle as well as Aexir.
So how come, he already liked the Princess when He doesn't even know her yet?
Yumuko ang kapatid ko at tinitigan ang tea niyang malapit ng maubos tsaka bahagyang napangiti na naman bago ako sinagot. "I can't wait to meet her again."
