Chapter: Laura
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Laura was so in love with Florante. She was so happy that her tatay, Haring Linceo, also liked the boy. She hummed to herself as she sat by her dresser, brushing her long, chastnut hair.
Someone cleared his throat behind her. Being the princesa that she was, didn't bother to turn her head to look at whoever it was. "Hapnunan na ba?" she asked, and continued to brush her hair. She looked at her reflection in the mirror, and saw that it was Menalipo, Florante's cousin, and not any of her house servants. She blushed and turned around immediately. "Ay! Sorry, Menalipo. Akala ko kasi kainan na." she said, and smiled guilitly at him.
"Okay lang iyon, Laura." Menalipo replied, and smiled back at her good naturedly.
"Mabuti naman. By the way, kamusta na si Florante? I haven't seen him in such a matagal na while." Laura rose out of her chair, smiling excitedly at him.
Menalipo's smile faltered. How would he tell her that Florante was with Flerida?
After a few minutes, he left the room, the sounds of Laura's crying haunting him.
Laura was quiet for the next few weeks. She didn't kain, and she didn't have the gana to eat. All she wanted was to have Florante back. Her misery was just worsened when Aladin, a Moro, came and suddenly claimed himself her real father.
Isn't Haring Linceo my tatay? she thought to herself. Haring Linceo and Aladin the Moro tried as much as they could to persuade her that he was her real ama. Who will I make paniwala?? she thought desperately, and looked at herself in the mirror. She looked at her eyes. She DID have dark eyes, just like the Moro's. . .
