"Anong balak niyong gawin sa buong summer?" tanong ni Agatha
Nasa palasyo kami ngayong lima, si Theo may kailangan na asikasuhin kaya susunod nalang siya.
"I don't know pero gusto kong mag-summer job," sagot ni Irene
"Me too! pero magpapaalam pa ako," sabi ni Agatha
"Yan din ang balak ko," - Jasmin
"I don't know yet but mama wants me to try modelling," nakita kong napatitig saakin si Agatha pero agad din siyang umiyak ng tingin
"Be careful and pag-isipan mo muna ng mabuti ang gagawin mo Lore," seryoso niyang sabi kaya napalingon sakanya si Irene
Silang dalawa ang masyadong close saaming lahat kaya hindi na ako magtataka if Irene knew something but that's a good thing tho dahil kahit papaano ay may mapaglalabasan si Agatha ng kung ano man ang nakatago sa kalooban niya o kung ano ang mga mabigat na dinadala niya
"That's a tough way to go," biglang sabi ni Rietta na kanina pa tahimik lang sa gilid
"Well it's not sure pa naman and Mama's not forcing me so it's up to me parin naman. And I am still undecided so, I don't know yet," paliwanag ko sa kanila
"Have you told Theo about it? The last I remember he didn't agree to it," tanong ni Rietta
"No, baka mamaya, he went off early kaya hindi kami nakapag-usap ng maayos pero balak ko rin talaga na sabihin sakaya mamaya," sagot ko naman
Npalingon naman kaming lahat sa pintoan ng may kumatok mula doon at ilang segundo lang ay pumasok doon ang isa sa maids nila Rietta
"Your highness," bati nito sakanya saka yumuko
"Here are the foods that your majesty asked us to prepare for you and the young ladies." pagtukoy niya saamin
"Thank you, just leave it there," nakangiting sabi naman ni Rietta
Sinunod naman nito ang sinabi niya saka nagpaalam bago umalis
"Ang dami naman nito," sabi ni Irene na naunang lumapit sa hinatid na carts para itulak palapit saamin
"Anyway, for sure Thro has a plans for you this summer," sabi ni Rietta na nakatingin saakin
"We always have that's why I need to talk to him if ever I'll consider Mama's offer,"
Every summer ay gumagawa kami ng bucket list to do ni Theo to enjoy our summer break at siya ang naka-quota na gumawa for this summer kaya hindi ko alam kung ano ang mga plans namin
"On the party at the Island, did you give your calling card to Charles?" biglang tanong ni Agatha kaya napalingon kami sakanya only to me to find out na saakin siya nakatingin kaya tinuro ko ang sarili ko at tumango naman siya
"Yes, he also gave his so I can contact him if I need someone to do my make up for something. They are good anyway," nakangiti kong sabi
Nakita kong napabuntong hininga si Agatha atsaka ako tinignan at ngumiti but I can see through her smile that those aren't real
"What's wrong babe?" kunot noong tanong ko na kinabigla niya
"Oh no, nothing, I mean that's good," nakangiti parin niyang sabi
Hindi ko nalang siya pinilit o tinanong pa dahil ayaw ko na baka mabother siya o makaramdam ng kahit na ano
Ilang saglit lang ay nag-usap usap lang din kami ng kung ano ano hanggang sa kumain narin kami dahil dumating na si Theo
"Where have you been?" tanong ng pinsan nito sakanya
"Classes," tipid na sagot ni Theo na halatang pagod
"I also have mine later so stay here for them for a while, I try to be done quickly," sabi naman ni Rietta dito.
Royalty things
"He is here," hindi naman agad na nakagalaw sa kinauupuan niya si Rietta at nanlalaki ang mga mata na nakatingin sa pinsan
"What? Why!?" gulat at pabulong niyang tanong kay Theo pero rinig ko yun dahil nasa pagitan nila ako
"I don't know." kibit balikat na sagot ng katabi ko na parang wala lang yun sakanya
"I have to go," hindi na nakapagpaalam si Rietta sa mga kasama namin dahil sa pagmamadali
Humalik naman ako sa pisngi niya "Take care," ngumiti lang siya saakin saka tumango
"I will babe," umalis na siya pagkatapos nun
"May nangyari ba?" pagtukoy ko sa actions ni Rietta
"Wala babe, it's nothing, naninibago lang talaga siya." well I can see that
"Is he her—" tumango naman si Theo kahit na hindi pa ako tapos sa tinatanong ko
"Isn't it too early? Matagal pa bago ang pasukan. Couldn't Rietta have her remaining summer days muna?" kunot noong tanong ko
Walang alam ang mga kasama namin sa nangyayari o sa pinag-uusapan namin. I also shouldn't supposed to know pero dahil madaldal si Theo ay nabanggit niya saakin
"Well, talking of the consequence of her favor and I think it's best for them to meet and know each other earlier para wala na ring problema sa pagitan nila sa pasukan. So they could talk about their dos and don'ts since it's a secret," sagot nito saakin
At some point gets ko naman siya but I kinda felt bad for Rietta, so may possibility na she couldn't be with us masyado ngayong summer dahil maliban sa classes niya ay may iba pa siyang kailangan na asikasuhin
"Anyway," napalingon naman agad saakin si Theo
"Mama's offering me to try modelling this summer," napatitig naman siya saakin
"You'll have modelling sessions?" tumango naman ako
"If I'll agree," sagot ko
"That's fine though and it's good for you to boost your confidence but I hope your sessions have the same day, and time with my classes so we could have time together after," as always, a super supportive best friend of mine
"Give me your summer schedule so I could give it to mama and asked her to make mine the same and talk to the agency," ngumiti naman siya saka tumango
"Well goodluck for that love, call me or text me anytime if you needed help or if you think you can't handle it. I'll surely go there to stay with you," nakangiti niyang sabi saka ginulo ng bahagya ang buhok ko
