"It's a secret doorway," Prince Caspian uttered. I knew it! Okay, so far I'm loving it here. The excitement is killing me when we stepped into the other side of the room. "Here we are," said by Caspian. "The secret chamber," the prince added. I was lost for words. It's not just any chamber but a room full of mysterious stuffs! May malaking pabilog na lamesa sa gitna ng silid. Nakapatong dito ang isang mahabang mapa, compass at kasera. May mga armas din na nakasabit sa pader ng silid. One corner caught my attention. May malaking aparador dito na natatakpan ng isang puting tela. Marahan kong hinawi ito. May salamin na pangbuong-katawan sa gitna at sa bawat gilid nito ay may maliliit na lagayang naglalaman ng samo't saring kandila, halaman at bulaklak. Dahan-dahang lumapit ako rito. Hahawakan ko na sana ang salamin nang may nagsalita. "Lady Mary, please have a seat," Prince Aiden said and tapped the seat beside him. "Yes, your majesty," lumapit ako sa kanya at naupo sa tabi nito. I gazed upon Caspian but he was just standing in front of us, I really don't know what's with this guy and his mask. "This will be our place," kumabog ang dibdib ko sa hindi inaasahang dahilan. Napalingon ako sa prinsipe dahil sa sinabi nito. "Ang mga bagay na pag-uusapan dito, ay dito lang at hindi maaaring ipagkalat sa iba," malumanay na saad nito. "Either it's a kingdom or personal matter." "As the personal assistant of the prince, you should know where to stand," lumapit ng kaunti si Caspian sa amin. "You, should always know your place," I saw how Caspian's eyes moved and looked at me. Humigpit ang hawak ko sa damit na suot. How could he be so intimidating even with his mask on?! May inabot sa aking papel ang prinsipe at tinanggap ko naman ito. "Those are my schedule's for today, Lady Mary. I believe you will be with us for the whole day," Prince Aiden smiled at me. This is it, Mary. The start of your journey as the Prince's personal assistant. "Dapat ko ba talaga tong gawin?! Hindi ba dapat binabantayan ko lang and prinsipe?!" Pabulong sa pasigaw kong tanong sa sarili. Nandito kami ngayon sa kwadra at namimili ng sasakyang kabayo para sa pag-eensayo ng prinsipe. "I'll take Vad," Caspian affirmed and took the black horse named Vad. "Mine's Sage," the prince added and took the white horse. Nang makapili silang dalawa ay sabay itong bumaling sa'kin. I looked at them confused. "Aren't you going to pick one, Lady Mary?" the prince asked. Napalunok ako. "Well, yes your majesty." Tinulungan ako ng tagapagbantay ng kwadra mamili ng sasakyang kabayo, si Mr. Wally. Gladly I found one. Kayumanggi ang kulay nito at saktong-sakto ang sukat para sa akin. "Her name is Meadow," panimulang saad ni Mr. Wally. "Take good care of her," he smiled. "I will sir," I breathed and caressed Meadow. "Let's go now, Lady Mary!" I can feel the excitement of Prince Aiden just hearing his voice. "Yah!" Nauna na sa'min Sina Vad at Caspian, sumunod naman ang prinsipe at ako sa likuran nito habang sa likuran namin ay may tatlong kawal para sundan kami. My lips formed a smile as the three of us ride through a field of flowers. As written on Prince Aiden's schedule, we will be going to visit Ardor Village. Sakop din ito ng Halycon Kingdom and it is known for it's delicious beverages. "Enjoying aren't we, Lady Mary?" I heard one of the guards yelled. I smiled and yelled back. "Well, I haven't done such thing so, I'm enjoying the moment, sir!" "WELCOME TO ARDOR VILLAGE, YOUR MAJESTY!" Applauses and cheers are everywhere, as we reached Ardon Village. "They're very welcoming," bulong ng prinsipe. "Yeah, and noisy," kumunot Naman ang noo ko sa sinabi ni Caspian. Titignan ko na sana siya nang maalalang nakamaskara ito. Waste of time. After tons of greetings, we directly went to the wine house where I believe the beverages are made. Bumaba na si Caspian at ang prinsipe sa kanilang mga kabayo at sumunod naman ako. Sumama din sa amin sa loob ang isang kawal at ang dalawa ay natira sa labas upang magbantay. *Kling* The bell on the door made a sound as soon as Caspian opened it. A wide smile welcomed us. "Your majesty," a man bowed. I bet he's the owner of the wine house. "Mr. Dane, it's nice to see you again," Prince Aiden said calmly and smiled. "It's nice to see you too, your majesty! This is an honor for me and for Ardon Village!" Kitang-kita sa mukha nito ang galak na makita ang prinsipe. "Father? Father? Who are they?" My eyes landed on the girl in a white dress. She's so cute! "Oh hi there, little girl," the prince uttered to the girl who is now hiding behind his father. "Your majesty, this is my daughter, Grace," pagpapakilala ni Mr. Dane sa anak nito. "Grace darling, that is Prince Aiden," the little girl took a peek and hid her face again. Natawa naman kami sa inasta nito maliban lang kay Caspian na busy na pagtingin ng mga wine glass. "Have a sit, your majesty!" Prince Aiden sat down on one of the chairs. Nanatili naman akong nakatayo at inikot ang mata sa buong wine house. It's very cozy lalo na at dim ang ilaw nito. Kung tinignan ay parang gabi ang paligid at ito'y nakakamangha. By the looks of it, it's pretty dazzling. "Lady Mary!" "Ay kabayo!" Natakpan ko ang bibig nang mapasigaw sa gulat.
