"Zariya, you seem to be thinking deeply?"

"Huh?" My trance returned when the person opposite me, Ysabelle, spoke.

We are currently in the lake now and busy washing the clothes of the five Princes and also including other fabrics used in the palace. This was the day set aside for laundry and Ysabelle and I were assigned to do this work.

This is also the first time I have been to this stream.

This stream is so clean, unlike the modern world where garbage is dumped, that even the color of the water you would think of coffee because of its earthy color.

In the stream of the Kingdom of Norland, you can even bathe in super clean water. Not a single dirt you can see floating. Its mineral-like water makes you soak. If I am not mistaken, this stream is also connected to the lake that is there in the palace garden. It was only a few kilometers away from the palace but even though it was very close, some soldiers still followed us. Think about it, our role here is servant but we also have a

    "Is everything all right? Have the tables to be used later been taken out? Are there enough chairs out there?" Kharim Celia asked, confused. Earlier she was back and forth on the walk. She had almost gone around the whole kitchen but not one, no one answered her series of questions. All of us here are busy with him— his work assigned to us. Even if I want to answer, I don't know what to answer. I don't even know what's exactly happening now. After I served the five Princes for breakfast, Ysabelle and I went over to the kitchen and this is what I got, everyone was busy. I am currently cutting the ingredients that will be needed for the dish to be cooked by Uncle Luisito, the cook here at the palace. I was opposite Ysabelle who was also busy cutting vegetables. "The dishes to be cooked, are they okay? Are there any ingredients missing? Just tell us when we can find a way. We can't miss this," added Kharim Celia. What's going on? I don't think I was informed. My gaze went to a servan

    "How's your sister, Ysabelle?" I asked her as I accompanied her into the kitchen. We carried her plate, which had been set aside because the King and the Princes had just finished eating.I didn’t ask her yesterday because after Prince Arsh left me in the garden, I went straight to the kitchen and helped with the kitchen work all day. I also informed Kharim Celia about the emergency of Ysabelle and they understood. I don't even know what time she came back."My sister is in good condition, Zariya. I am very grateful to you for letting me go and informing Kharim Celia," she replied with a smile. "Thank you very much again."I stopped walking for a moment and looked at her with a miserly smile on my lips. As much as I can do anything, I will do it especially when someone's life is at stake. I'm glad her sister is okay. Hopefully, her condition will improve and she will never get sick again.I slowly lowered the plates to the dishes. It’s hard to miss because they seem so expensive. If I

    "Let's rest first," Prince Ravi said after stopping the horse.I turned to look at Prince Nesh who was also stopped now. He took the lead in the operation earlier but Prince Ravi and I caught up with him immediately. The brothers seemed to be very good at horseback riding. Are their three other siblings just as good?I was gripped tightly around Angelito's neck when Prince Ravi came down causing the horse to move. Prince Nesh has also come down and is currently tying his horse to a tree. The two horses also needed to rest because they also ran long distances.How can I go down now? I guess I'll just jump? I looked at how high I would beat to get down. I feel like I'd rather just sit here on the horse and wait until we get home. I was scared because I might step on and balance my two feet wrong again because I might fall again."Don't beat me and you might get lame. Let me help you get down safely," Prince Ravi said looking at me. He seemed to have read my mind.He first adjusted the f

    Prince Nesh did nothing when I told him to take me back to the palace. He even grumbled because it was against his will. He was probably waiting to see which of his three brothers I would choose to deliver to me. He still really enjoys watching as the tension builds between his siblings. If I only knew the way back to the palace, I would not hesitate to go back alone.I passed Prince Nesh's hand and left the three Princes."Why did you choose me? I didn't bother to take you back," Prince Nesh asked as we walked together.Darkness has overtaken us. We were making our way back to the palace and Prince Nesh's kerosene was our light. He took it to the stable."Why not you?" my philosophical question back to him.He stopped walking so I was surprised and stopped as well. "Don't tell me, you admire me too?"I raised my right eyebrow. Is he serious about his question?"I thought you had secret feelings for Ravi only. Now, you also like me," he added."Like Prince Dern, your face is thick," I

    "You don't have to come anymore, Zariya. Today is your day of rest so just rest," Ysabelle said. "We can handle this."No matter how much she pressured me to go and ignored them, I still did not listen to her. She can't force me to just rest all day and do nothing.Like her, I also took a basket made of woven bamboo. I put the handle on it in my hand. I decided to go with them to pick fruits in the garden. It's more enjoyable than snoring in the bedroom and lying down all day. My back will only hurt there. It would be nice if cell phones and Wi-Fi were trendy these days, I would really like to just hang out in the bedroom and ‘don’t go out anymore. As I do in the modern world, I will just watch until I reach nightfall.After what happened earlier in Haya Kaira's room, she sent me away. She said that she would just change her clothes, like she herself was not responsible for why it was wet and soiled. Duh! She even passed on to me the sin I did not commit. I continued to look bad in fr

    "Let me accompany you, Zariya. It is dangerous for a Haya to go into the forest alone," insisted by Prince Ravi.I was about to go out of the palace gate to go to the forest to pick up the herbs that Kharim Celia had ordered me when I met Prince Ravi and he stopped me from continuing as long as I was not with him.I declined his offer twice to accompany me because I remembered what Haya Kaira said to me yesterday. She said that I should stay away from Prince Ravi. I don't know why she said that. The first time she said that to me was like I was picking up her fiancée. I have no intention of stealing Prince Ravi from her. I never dreamed of being a mistress or even in a relationship wrecker. I’m just getting older than doing the thing that will only hurt me.Before answering Prince Ravi I caught a glimpse of the person on the terrace of her room, Haya Kaira. She is now looking here in the direction of Prince Ravi and me. Maybe that's what she thinks again. Is it really fun to have a fi

    When I opened my eyes, I found that Kharim Celia was no longer in her bed. I woke up immediately because the sun was watching me now. I have to go inside the palace because I will still be helping with the kitchen chores.I was sitting on the edge of the bed when I saw something that made me very nervous last night. I picked it up and held it. I re-read what was written here."Arsh," I read it in my mind.This bracelet I hold is enough to recognize that person. I only bumped into one guy the day before and just last night. And the worst part, I even kissed him! So, even if I want to return her bracelet, I can't. If I do that, how? I might even be ruined. He’ll know I’m the person he bumped into. What if he asked me what I was doing outside at such a time? I can get away with it when he asks what happened last night because I'm really just going to vent but what happened at dawn that I reported to the Queen Mother? It seemed impossible for me to get past that one. Especially since it h

    "Until now I still can't believe that Prince Arsh is referring to Haya Kaira," Ysabelle said next to me. Earlier, she was chattering next to me and repeatedly mentioning what had happened earlier.I also can't believe what Haya Kaira said.We are currently walking back inside the palace. I walked quietly, while Ysabelle and the other waitresses couldn't stop talking about what had happened in the courtyard. Almost everyone was shocked, even Prince Arsh when Haya Kaira showed up and said she was the woman Prince Arsh was looking for. She said she was the woman who had twice collided with the Prince.She convinced everyone. Except me.I don’t believe in Haya Kaira. How come that Prince's referring to her if I was the one who actually collided with Prince Arsh twice?Is there someone else I bumped into? But it's impossible! I hold Prince Arsh’s bracelet which will prove that he is indeed the one I collided with and I am the person he is looking for and not Haya Kaira.I don’t trust Haya

    We almost toured the entire vicinity of Simala Shrine Church and it was also close to twilight but until now Prince Arsh still doesn’t remember me. Soon we will go home and leave this church.It's a pity because what I expect is that he will remember me while we are still here because this church design helped a lot to remember our memories when we were still in the Kingdom of Norland."Oh, why are you upset about that?"I looked up at Kaith who was still busy taking pictures in the mini garden at the back of the church. I was sitting dejectedly behind her.I didn’t answer her and the expression on my face still remained.There seems to be no real hope that he will remember me.I will have a harder time reminding him when we get back to campus. Only the History subject connects us and that ‘time’ was not enough to remind him who I was in his past life.But what if he was right?Maybe I was wrong. He wasn't really Prince Arsh.That may be because I miss the Princes so much, I'm just lo

    “Simala Shrine Church is a religious structure and establishment here at Sibonga Town, Cebu's southernmost province. In the 16th century, European missionaries, who are Spanish, planted the seeds of Catholicism in Cebu Province, and churches were built,” our Philippine History instructor explained. “Simala Shrine Church is now one of the most popular religious destinations in the Philippines. One of the most important aspects of most Filipino Catholics' lives is pilgrimages or visits to religious sites. This feature helps them maintain their confidence and persevere in the face of adversity.”Ma’am just kept talking but my brain didn’t absorb it. My mind was floating and no matter how much I wanted to listen, I couldn’t. I hear what she says about the history of this church but I don't know why I still don't understand anything. My brain is floating in the air so I can't focus now. This is because of the extreme embarrassment that happened earlier. I just gasp every time I think about

    "Ouch!"A shout came to me when I opened my eyes."Wait! What's that?""Man, slow down to brake!"I heard loud complaints from various people around. Just a few moments later, I also complained because of the sudden bump on the seat in front of me. The right hand that supported my forehead was withdrawn so I was stunned completely.I slowly lifted my head to see what was happening.I still held my forehead bumped as I rolled my eyes all around. My eyes widened when I saw where I was.I'm on the bus!Am I in the modern world now?I saw our Class Mayor Shane in the middle and checked one by one with my classmates to see if anyone had bumped badly. Isagn and Kaleela, on the other hand, remained standing and seemed to be catching gossip about what happened to the bus we were riding. I want to approach them and hug them because I miss them so much. But even if I wanted to do that, I couldn't get close to my friends because all the students were standing there so that they could occupy the

    "Aren't you coming down yet? Do you just want to let Father know?" It was the voice of a familiar person."There's no need because I'll be next after I put this herb on Zariya." My heart softened when I heard his voice. There's something about me that makes me want to wake up but what I'm doing is too painful."In that case, I'll be the first to go downstairs."I heard the conversation of two familiar people. Although I wanted to know if my suspicion that they were the ones talking was correct, I couldn't do it because I still felt pain in my head. I chose to close my eyes but keep my mind awake and continue to listen secretly. It will only take another pain when I insist more.I can't wait for an answer. I just heard the door close, it looks like one of them has come out. Just a few seconds later, I felt something cold land on my forehead.I could feel what the person next to me was doing. I heard him grind on what it was and again, he applied something to my forehead.Is that the he

    Where am I?I’m not familiar with where I am. In the few months of staying in the Kingdom of Norland, I have only just been here. To my knowledge, there is no such place inside the palace. I’m not at Norland palace right now so I’m very curious how I got here.I turned around to look all around. I was amazed at what I saw.What a beautiful place!Extensive fields planted with a variety of flowers are here. I was in the middle and surrounded by flowers that were not familiar to me and I wanted to know what kinds of flowers it was because the color was so bright and so fragrant! It is entertaining to watch the whole surroundings, especially the butterflies flying in the air.This is similar to what Prince Arsh and I used to go to when we picked flowers for King Valor’s birthday, the Garden of Fragrance. But the only difference is, the Fragrance Garden is far wider than this place."What am I doing here?" I could no longer stop talking to myself.It really puzzles me how I got here? I lo

    "Father, are you really sure you can do it? Maybe your body is still weak, maybe you still need to rest. Same to you, Mother," Prince Ravi said worriedly. "That's why we can even if you don't come anymore."He had asked question earlier after question whether King Valor and Queen Amelia were sure to join us in the raid on Norland which is now led by Queen Emily. He couldn’t help but worry because of what had happened to their parents. King Valor had just recovered from poisoning while Queen Amelia sustained wounds due to the captivity of my ruthless Queen Mother."Don't worry, your Mother is feeling good about us. This time, we will not allow ourselves to not be together in this battle. We will be more confident that we will win because we have joined together and will work together to recover. our home.”When our meeting was over we immediately prepared for the second war. We had enough rest and strength to dive again. It would be better not to prolong our invasion because that might

    "How can I face Father with our youngest brother who is no longer alive?" The voice of the first Prince trembled.We are now surrounded by Prince Ravi who is sitting while holding Prince Nesh who has passed away. Of the four, Prince Ravi was the most affected. He blames himself for the death of the youngest Prince. He said he could not save it and let it perish. Earlier the Prince had been crying incessantly and trying to talk to his brother's cold corpse. He could not accept that it had passed away.After what happened to Prince Nesh, we suddenly disappeared from the palace and found ourselves in the basement where the Kingdom of Norland stood. We will all be doomed if we stay in the palace because we have no opponent. It’s as if we’ve even helped the opponent succeed if we insist on fighting back. So it is better to just leave and come back when we are ready to overthrow them.It’s just sad because we didn’t bring the other soldiers. They are constantly fighting and are not afraid t

    I immediately ran to the whereabouts of Prince Arsh when I saw the three Lacandia soldiers who had been behind me earlier. If Prince Arsh hadn't seen it, I would probably have been in their position, I'm the one lying on the floor now. Little did I know that my life had been on the brink of death. I would have seen San Pedro soon.I still can't fight them because there are three of them. What am I up against? Three versus one? Also, I don’t have enough fighting knowledge yet. I definitely lose when it happens. It’s good and ‘the Princes still don’t realize that I’m a Princess but I don’t know how to fight."Don't be afraid, I won't let you get hurt." Prince Arsh greeted me with a tight hug and gently stroked my hair. He was trying to erase the fear I had felt before. In those hugs, I could feel that he would never leave me and that he was always there, ready to protect me at any time.It didn't take long for him to hug me because it also came loose immediately. There are so many oppon

    "Zariya?"My gaze stopped in emptiness when Prince Arsh waved his hand in front of me. He tried to grab my attention. That's when my trance returned."Are you saying something, Prince Arsh?" I asked.Ever since we escaped the Kingdom of Lacandia my mind has been flying. I couldn’t focus because of what happened. The trauma left me when we were still captives by Queen Emily. I really feel that we are still confined and have no opponent until now.The conscience I feel is really overwhelming. I even hurt Prince Cozen for telling me how I really feel for him. I have no intention of hurting him, I just want to make him aware of his wrongdoings and correct them before it is too late.But I don’t regret directing him. If that act gave me too much conscience, to Prince Cozen it would have been well done. As a result, Prince Cozen opened his eyes that he was spelling in the wrong direction.At first he also could not accept and it was hard to believe him but with the help of their Mother and
