*LISA'S POV*

4 and a half months later...

"Hhhhmmmm..." sabi ko sabay unat ng mga braso ko. Naalimpungatan kasi ako dahil sa lamig na nararamdaman ko. Nandilat yung mga mata ko nung nakita ko na meron akong katabi.

Ang sakit ng mga kasu-kasuan ko.

I reached for the the bedside table para kuhain yung phone ko. 7 a.m. 

My head hurts.

"Wake up, Malee." sabi ko sakanya as I nudged her bare shoulder and she stirred in response. "What? Is it 8 already?" tanong niya with her eyes still closed and her facing me.

"It's 7... but I need to get dressed." sagot ko naman as I stood up at pinulot ko yung mga damit ko na nagkalat sa kwarto. Napansin kong hindi parin siya umiimik at bumabangon kahit na natapos na ko magbihis kaya naman umupo ako sa gilid ng kama and I started poking her sholder softly. "Princess... gising na."

"Why do you always sound so hot when you're speaking in that husky voice?" she whispered.  "Hahahah. I do that so you'd wake up. I don't want your guards barging in on us again. Get dressed and leave, please." sabi ko naman ulit. 

"That's not the way to treat the  princess, Lisa." she husked and finally she got up sa pagkakahiga niya and sat on the bed, her body being covered by the comforter.

"Oh... but I know exactly how the princess wants to be treated." sabi ko with a smirk and I saw her try to lean in pero bago pa niya ako mahalikan eh I put my finger atop her lips. "Get dressed and leave, princess." sabi ko with a smirk. 

"Fine. See you whenever?" sabi niya as she got up. "I'll text you. Take care, please." sabi ko at dumiretso na ako sa banyo para makaligo.

I closed my eyes as I felt the warm water flow over my body. I stood inside the shower  for a few minutes, just enjoying my time alone. But my phone just had to interrupt every single time. I grunted as I reached out for my phone. Dapat talaga hindi to dinadala sa shower eh.

"What? No goodmorning for your favorite cousin?" I heard Bambam from the other line. "I'm tired, Bam." sabi ko naman.

"You know what? Sometimes I regret ever taking you to that club! You barely hang out with me anymore! Princess this.. Princess that! I didn't know you had a knack for royalty. I didn't even know she was the princess that night." Bambam trailed off sa pagrereklamo niya. 

"How about you and I have lunch? Before Uni?" reply ko naman. "Well.... I'll take a look at my schedule." sabi niya and I imagined his infamous smirk dahil sa lagi niya akong iniinis. In a short amount of time na nagstay ako dito sa Thailand, Bambam was mostly there. He was grounded dahil sa mga kalokohan na pinaggagawa niya and he took my visit as an opportunity para gumala nang gumala na hindi tumatakas kay tito.

"Seriously, Bam?? Fine. Might hang out with Malee then." sabi ko naman para inisin siya pabalik.

"Come on now, Lis. I was just joking. Same club?" tanong niya sakin. "Dafuq, Bam. It's 7 in the morning. How about we get some coffee? Just across the Uni. I have classes too, you know." I explained and I heard him sigh from the other line.

"Ofcourse you're bringing the Princess." sabi niya. "Well.. we
