"Yo,you're sixteen years old,you can't just spend time playing around,I've called your archery instructor" my mother said as she pulled me away from Won and Jung.

"Yes,mother" I answered.It was tiring to always listen to what she said,but I knew that it was because she loved me. My father isn't too fond of me,it's probably because of that stupid astrologer of his. Ji mong always gives me the sternest stares,like he knows something I don't. And that is one thing I hate. I changed my clothes,mother told me that it is best to wear ordinary robes when practicing,"No one should notice you,they shouldn't know how much time you spend practicing" she says.I honestly think that she's a bit paranoid,but I don't want to disagree with her. 

My trainer didn't usually come to the palace,he had a place close to Wook's house. Wook recently got married,we're not too close,so I decided not to visit him.After all he just came back from his banishment

I was walking through the garden fast,hoping not to be seen

"PSST.." I heard something from behind a tree

I looked closely at the tree, the back of a small head was seen. " hey,could you get me some water" the voice called out. 

Yo was furious ,how dare someone demand something from a prince. "don't you know who I am?" he shouted at the person beind the tree.

"Please,just get me water" the voice begged

Yo was now curious,the person sounded very desperate. He walked closer to the tree to see who the mysterious voice belonged to.

He walked around it and saw a young girl leaning on the tree . She looked very tired and almost looked like she was going to faint.She looked like a maid.

"YAH" Yo called out,the girl opened her eyes. Yo didn't want to admit it,but she was pretty....for a servant girl,she had long black hair that was tied back and big black eyes,her skin was a bit tanned,which made him further confirm that she was a maid. She looked younger than him,and it looked like she had been sitting there for a while.

"why are you sitting here?" he asked.He decided to hide his identity for a few seconds,for once he wanted to talk to someone who didn't expect anything from him,be it good or bad.He didn't really have any friends,and most of his brothers kept their distance from him.

"Princess Yeonhwa doesn't want to see me.....so I'm hiding" she said with a tired face

"ahh,so you are a servant girl,what did you do?" he asked. He didn't know why he cared. She was a mere servant,and his mother told him to not interact with people beneath him.

"she asked us which of the princes we liked, I should have known that it was a trap "  she sighed 

She must have said my name, I am the best looking prince,Yo thought to himself

"I said prince Wang So" she muttered beneath her breath. Yo's eyes widened in shock,no wonder Yeonhwa didn't want to see her,the girl was completely crazy.

"why him?" Yo asked,unable to control his curiosity 

"My father once made a mask for him,and I was there when he went to deliver it to him." she said looking at Yo,her voice was rough " I remember feeling bad for him,he was living alone and looked sad,but he smiled when he saw my father" she said with a small smile

"that's it?" he asked. Servant girls were so easy to please

"My father died soon after that,Prince Wang So's mask was the last thing he made" she said sadly. "By the way,who are you?" she asked looking at him

"you're not worthy of knowing my name" he said standing up ,"This water in my bag is too hot from being in the sun,so you can have this water,I don't want to die drinking hot water" Yo said,as he passed his bag. 

"Drinking hot water doesn't kill you,it's good for your body" she said as the drank it. Yo couldn't believe that he had given his water to a servant,if his mother found out he'd be punished,but something about this girl,made him want to help her. He kind of liked helping her. He felt good. Maybe being kind wasn't too bad. As soon as those thoughts entered his head,he panicked. He was late and he talked to a servant,his mother would kill him. He ran away without another word
