The Queen (Book 2)

Chapter 20

"Wakey wakey señorita" I heard a familiar voice. Nagtaklob ako ng unan dahil sinasabayan nila Coco at Isadora ng tahol yung nagsasalita. Ughhh so annoying.

The dogs are jumping on the bed while barking. I finally opened my eyes when I heard someone laughing. It was Klime— Oh my gosh! It was Klime! I got so excited and I immediately ran my way to Klime to hug him na halos mag pabuhat na ko "KLIME!" masayang sigaw ko.

Nang makabitawa ako kay Klime na siyang tinatakpan na ang tenga niya dahilan para mag tawanan kami. "Wala ka naman sigurong balak sirain ang eardrums ko, babe?" dahilan para yakapin ko ulit siya.

"Oh my gosh! I miss you so much, babe!" Masayang sambit ko na halos maluha luha pa. Naluluha na talaga ko, dinadaan ko na lang sa tawa.

I can't ask for him to stay here in Scarabaegaria, since he was finally living his life in Desi. He has his plans, his life. I shouldn't meddle in his life now that he's finally happy. Hindi na kami bata na bawat time na kailangan ko siya ay mapupuntahan niya ko. And that's part of growing up, a part that I will never get used to.

I sighed heavily while looking at Klime na siya namang napansin ni Klime na nakikipag harutan kayla Coco at Isadora. Gusto ko nalang batukan ang sarili ko, I shouldn't do that! "Oh why? Is something bothering you?" He worriedly looked at me.

I just gave him a smile "I'm just nervous for tomorrow." I just gave him a smile for assurance. I just lied. I don't wanna bother him anymore. He looks tired.

Tomorrow is a welcoming event for me. I will meet a different Prince and a well-defined man. It seems like I have to choose my king for the future of this kingdom. At first I really hated the Idea but I didn't want to disobey my parents, especially my Father.

"Kailan ka pa dumating?" I asked him para maiba naman yung topic. "Ngayon ngayon lang, tara let's eat breakfast muna." I just did my morning routines before we left the room.

Its 2pm to be exact at kararating lang sa Palasyo nila Sybil at Augustus. Nandito sila para bisitahin ako kahit na magkikita naman kami bukas. "I don't miss you, okay?" Mataray na bungad sakin ni Sybil.

Natawa naman kami ni Klime sa sinabi niya at umakto nahuhuli ng pulis dahil tinaas namin ang dalawa naming nga kamay as a sign of defeat. "Why so defensive Sofia the first?" Puna ni Klime sa kanya habang nakikipag beso kami sa kanila ni Augustus.

We used to call Sybil, Sofia the first, it's part of our youth. "Admit it Sybil, you miss Kalila." Augustus said while Sybil responded with her disgusted look.

"You can now open your eyes, Your Royal Highness" as I opened my eyes, I immediately observed my face. I don't feel pretty, I mean the makeup is fine but I was looking at a plain Kalila. I feel like my life has no color anymore since the time I left Scarabaegaria.
