His Peculiar Empress, WAS A Man[COMPLETED]

Chapter 13

Maganda ang gising ko ngayong umaga, I have a lot of energy and I think I can perform my work well the whole day.

"Freya, anong schedule ni Odhran ngayon?"

...as a full-time dad-este mom.

"You mean the crown prince, Your Majesty?"

"May iba pa bang Odhran sa palasyo?"

"Oh, pardon me, Empress. The prince is currently taking up his swordsmanship class. Later he'll study magical properties with his tutor, then this afternoon his highness will practice his skills in art, and after that-" I cut her off.

"Urgh. A child should play as well bakit mas puno pa ang schedule niya kaysa sa akin?"

"Your majesty already had taken those kinds of lesson when you were still a child, do you want to learn all of that again to fill your schedule?" Sabi ni Freya. Hindi ako makapaniwalang napatingin sa kanya. Bakit ba sa lahat ng tagapagsilbi si Freya ang hirap kong kausapin. Napailing nalang ako.

"Get some rest Freya..."

"I'm sorry Empress!"

Napatingin ako sa buong paligid. This is Odhran's palace, a whole separate building that is built only for him. Hindi ito kasing laki ng palasyo ko at ng main palace but it's a beautiful place.

"I don't know why I should be doing this." Bulong ko sa sarili ko. Napakibit balikat nalang din ako nang wala akong maisagot sa sariling tanong. Maybe this is what boredom feels like. My life has been so silent these past few days that I want to pester just anyone. Hindi lang ako makanap ng tamang tyempo para guluhin ang buhay ni Fisk cause whenever I stepped inside the main palace, someone will rush and get me the hell out of that place.

Magiging senseless ang ginawa kong chismis kung patuloy na ganoon ang gagawin niya sa akin. That bastard don't think! Siya na nga itong tinutulungan ko. Hindi ba niya nakuha ang signal ko? Though we're in a political marriage we should act like a lovey dovey, walang ka amor amor ang lalakin iyon.

Isa pang kinakastress ko ay pinatawag ako ng mga matatandang mukang miyembro ng gabinete kahapon. They're the head of the peers of aristocrats or whatever you may call them. Akala ko sa emperor lang nanggagaling lahat but some things need to be discuss with these people for the sake of the whole empire. Just like me having to carry the emperor's offspring. Darn. Pinakaayaw ko sa lahat ang minamanduhan ako, both the emperor nor I didn't need their advice or guidance.

Ngayon napagtanto kong puwede nila ako maging target to manipulate over the throne and revolt against the emperor, but that won't happen cause I'll be playing my own game. What should I and Odhran play for today? Luksong baka? Piko? mataya taya? patintero kaya? Ah! Chinese garter nalang, magaling akong mag limbo rock.

"Y-your Majesty!" Gulat na sinalubong ako ni Odhran. Mukang hindi niya inasahang makikita niya akong muli.

"Just call me by my name, it's Pfeiffer." Anas ko sa 7 years old na bata. Babatukan ko ang sinumang bata na pangalan lang ang itatawag sa akin na mas matanda sa kanila ng ilang taon, but this world, Odhran is different.

"I cannot do that, your majesty..."

Oh, look at this cute child. GUSTO KO SIYANG IHAGIS.

"Then call me mother or mom, aunt or whatever!"

"P-pardon?"

"Looks like you're attending your next class. Come with me." Turo ko sa sarili ko. I try to lift him up but I can't. This child's balls are surely heavy, can't admit that I'm weak here.

Hinawakan ko ang kamay niya at hinila siya paalis ng lugar. Lady Ezra and Lady Arcelin are with me earlier, nagtaka ako kung bakit wala na sila ngayon. Well, whatever. I think they're preparing our field where the little prince and I will play.
