The Twentieth

LOUISE's PoV

Pagka gising ko ay narinig ko kaagad ang ingay mula sa labas. After changing my clothes, I immediately go outside and saw the others have the same expression on their faces. They're confused also about the noises outside and the busy butlers and maids of the Kingdom.

"What's happening?" tanong ko sa kanila.

"We don't know, although I heard from one of the maid that the Kingdom have a visitor today." sabi ni Alv.

"Good morning everyone. We're so sorry if we disturb you right now. We humbly apologize for it, but get ready because today, we have a visitor from another kingdom." sabi ng P.A ni Queen Felicia kaya naman nagkatinginan kaming lahat.

"Well, let's go get ready then." sabi ni Jass then all of us came back to our own room and starts getting ready.

Suddenly, may kumatok sa pinto ko then pinagbuksan ko ito agad.

"Good morning Lady Louise. I'm so sorry if I'm late, lets get you ready." Sabi ni Christine, my personal maid here in the Kingdom. Pero kita ko sa kanya ang pagod kaya naman sinabi ko sa kanya na magpahinga na muna dito at ako na bahala sa pag aayos.

"But Lady-" napigil na ang sasabihin niya ng pinaupo ko na siya sa couch at pumasok na agad ako sa comfort room.

Naligo na ko at pagkatapos ay sinuot na ang isa sa mga everyday gown dito sa closet. Naglagay din ako ng konting make-up para mas mukhang presentable sa visitor ng Kingdom.

"You look lovely Lady Louise. I bet many guys confessed their love to you already." sabi ni Christine habang sinusuklay ang buhok ko.

"Nah. There's nothing like that. There are some yeah, I also tried dating before but, I don't know. They never last. I guess I'm not that interested in them. But not in the bad way, of course." sagot ko.

"Hmm, what about Prince Louis and Prince Sven?" tanong ni Christine kaya naman natigilan ako at napaisip.

"I know that sometimes you're also thinking that they are a royalty and deserve only to be with a princess to other kingdom. But trust me Lady Louise, I think they genuinely like you and want to be with you. The only problem is.. who will you choose?" tanong nito kaya naman napatingin ako sa kanya.

"Wait a minute. How can you say all of this Christine?" tanong ko sa kanya then she sit beside me.

"I could see it Lady Louise. Anyone can see it. I could see it from those two princes and definitely I could see it in you." sagot nito at ngumiti sakin.

"Are we that obvious?" tanong ko then nag isip siya.

"I think so. But I could tell that the two princes are being very careful, I'm sure they don't want to put you in any situation that you don't like." sabi nito.

"As for your question earlier. I won't choose, because first! They don't like me that way. Okay?" sabi ko sa kanya while smiling.

"Eh~ I don't think so. I believe that they like you, both of them!" sabi nito at sabay kumindat sakin. This girl, really. Natawa nalang ako sa kanya at nagpatuloy na kami sa pag aayos.

"You're done Lady Louise. I'm sure your other friends are waiting for you outside already." sabi nito kaya naman tumango ako at lumabas na ng kwarto.

"They said that we should head to the royal throne room immediately." sabi ni Alv kaya naman ay nagmadali na kaming pumunta dito. We we're so shocked because all of the people who have a high position in the whole kingdom are here. All of the princes are here too, habang naglalakad papunta sa pwesto namin. I caught Prince Louis and Sven looking at me seriously. Pero dahil sa sobrang pagka-intimidated sa mga tingin nila, umiwas nalang ako ng tingin at kinalma ang sarili ko as we positioned ourselves in our assigned place.
