Nagising ako nang may narinig akong kalapag sa Hindi kalayuan mula sa hinihigaan ko.. mabilis Kung kinapa Ang espada ko . Pero agad din akong natigilan nang maalala Kung nasira pala iyon.. gawa pa iyon Ng magandang ermetanyo na tumulong saakin noong namatay Ang aking Ina.
"S-sorry? Nagising ba Kita?" Si deviant na hawak hawak Ang basong basag
"Anong ginagawa mo Dito? " Inis na Tanong ko sakanya .. nag tataka din akong tinignan Ang sarili ko . I am now wearing a dress and I'm sleeping inside this unfamiliar bedroom .. "atsaka nasan ba ako? .. kaninong kwar-"
"Nandito ka sa northern kingdom.. at sorry dahil bibigyan Sana Kita Ng kape pero natapilok ako KayA natapon Yung kapeng inihanda ko .. at saka is it not rude to not introduce yourself to me? I mean ? You're inside my palace? .. we shouldn't let a stranger stay here?" Sarkastikong Sabi nya KayA tinignan ko naman Sya Ng masama
"Edi aalis na ak--"
"Biro lang hoy!! HAHAH pero I am really curious about you ... Ano bang pangalan Ng prinsesang kagaya mo?" Naka ngiting sabe nya at humiga sa paanan ko at gumulong gulong .. "Ang malas mo Kase .. naging mate ka Ng lalaking limang libong taon Ang tanda sayo HAHHAHA " pang aasar nya KayA kinusilapan ko naman Sya Ng malutong ..
"Ikaw ilang taon ka Naba?" Inis na Tanong ko
"Ako? Ha!!" He rubbed his nose na para bang nag yayabang "I am only seven hundred years old !" Mayabang na sabe nya
"So apparently you're seven hundred and 25 'years' older than me .. " walang ganang sabe ko at bumaba sa kama .. nakita ko naman Syang umastang nag bibilang Ng at nag pout ..
"You know.. we are the oldest person living in this world .. and the only person I know who's older than me is my brother and the God's.. but brother is so cold hearted because of his ice power and I don't have anyone to talk to in this palace . That's why I am so excited when I learned that my brothers mate is a human ... because maybe she's a good person and maybe I could talk to her like this.." he smiled bitterly .. "you know I learned a foreign word called Korean when Koreans came in this palace .. " natahimik naman ako habang nakikinig sakanya..
Being that old...he looks like a kid and act like a kid
"What word is it?" Tanong ko
"Did I catch your attention now? .. " masiglang Tanong nya KayA tumango naman ako " the word is called 'noona' and they say it is referred for a younger person to call a girl older than them or your older sister.. " tumango tango naman ako "but I don't have someone older than me so I could call them noona.. " tumingin Sya saaken "so can I? .. pretend that I am younger than you so I could call you noona? .. " I smiled softly nang sabihin nya yun... In this hundreds of years he live in this kingdom.. this guy never felt the warmth of the embrace of someone.
"You can call me..." I paused " I am Hermione Ophelia condradina .. call me noona.." naka ngiting sabe ko at ginulo Ang buhok nya.. sa kauna unahang pagkakataon I saw an older man crying ..and as he hugged me..
"Noona" mahinang bulong nya at may kung Anong malambot Ang humaplos sa puso ko.. "Hermione noona."
Natawa naman ako at tinapik tapik Ang likod nya ..
"Hmm hmm . I'm your noona .. " sabe ko at lumayo sakanya..
" So who's room was this?" I ask .. and he shrugged..
"This room was made 25 years ago.. probably because it was made for you?" Sabe nya at umupo sa kama.. "have you talked to him?" Umiling ako "you should.. Ikaw lang ang taong makaka gawa nun. "
"At bakit naman?.. you're his brother aren't you?" Tanong ko sakanya..
Medyo nag tataka din ako dahil sa inasta nilang pareho nung una ko silang makita.. they seemed so distant to each other.
"Brothers attitude was affected by his power.. he couldn't feel any emotions even when he was killing someone.. to be exact . His power ...is also his punishment."
"For what?"
"They said that his power is the most sinful power created by gods.. and whoever consumed that power became a sinner and brother is now a sinner.. I never saw him smile or laugh.. or even cry.. he can only feel anger.. but not happiness" malungkot na Ani nya.. " so take a good care of him.. he might feel the warmth that I felt for you noona. "
Saad nya bago mag Laho.. e? ... KayA nilang mag teleport? .. napa iling iling naman ako .
Maybe being so old.. is not always a blessing.
