Chapter 9

 

 

“Minnie!!!”

 

“Hyukkie?”

 

Sungmin heard a loud cry and follows it

 

“Minnie!!!”

 

She saw her best friend at the top of the tree, crying

 

“What are you doing there?”

 

“Please help me Minnie, I can’t go down and I’m scared”

 

“How can you climb up there if you don’t know how to go down?”

 

Eunhyuk start crying hard

 

“Donghae and I fought and I came here to see you and cry but you’re not here when I arrive”

 

“I went at the town to visit Teukie and tell her that Kangin can’t come home because Kyu needs him here in the Palace”

 

“Does Kyu know about it?”

 

Sungmin nod

 

“Why did you run away?”

 

“I hate my husband”

 

“And you left your children there?”

 

“I’ll be back later but please help me”

 

“Please don’t fool around, I know you”

 

Sungmin frown at her

 

“You know how to climb up the tree because we used to do it when we’re still young”

 

“But this time I can’t”

 

“I’ll call for a help”

 

“NO!”

 

Eunhyuk starts crying again

 

“You want me to look like a fool right? That’s why you’re calling for a help so people will laugh at me”

 

“That’s not true, I want to rescue you that’s why I’m calling for a help”

 

“If you want to rescue me then you’re the one who must help me to go down”

 

Sungmin holds her tummy

 

“But you know that I’m pregnant”

 

“You don’t love me Minnie”

 

“Hyukkie please un—“

 

Eunhyuk stare at her seriously

 

“I thought you’re my best friend”

 

“Yes we are best of friends”

 

“Then why don’t you help me? Do you want me to die here?”

 

“But Hyukkie”

 

“YAH! I always help you when you’re in trouble especially financially then it’s time for you to return that favor to me. Help me or else it’s the end of our friendship”

 

Sungmin stare at her sadly

 

“Fine”

 

She takes a deep breath and climb up the tree very carefully

 

“Hyukkie, my knees are shaking. I’m scared”

 

“You won’t fall, just don’t look at the ground”

 

“I’m really scared”

 

“YAH! Why do you need to be slow? Get up here fast!”

 

Sungmin continue climbing the tree while holding on to the branches; she carefully walks and was about to reach Eunhyuk when she steps on a weak branch

 

“Hyukkie! Please help me”

 

Eunhyuk just stare at her while smiling brightly

 

“I didn’t know that you’re such a fool”

 

Sungmin try to reach for her hand

 

“Please don’t let me fall”

 

“I win”

 

Eunhyuk smile at her; Sungmin falls on the ground, blood start to come out from her. Eunhyuk jump off the tree and stare at her

 

“Hyukkie please help me and my baby”

 

“You deserve that”

 

“Hyukkie!!!”

 

Eunhyuk smile and left her

 

“Hyukkie!!!”

 

Sungmin woke up from her sleep; her hands are trembling as she holds her tummy

 

“My baby is gone...she’s gone”

 

Sungmin bury her face on her knees and start crying

 

“Will you please stop your drama?”

 

Sungmin wipes her tears and stare at her husband who is still lying on the bed

 

“I’m still sleeping, what is wrong with you?”

 

“Bad dreams”

 

Kyuhyun stare at the window; it’s still dark outside, he sits on the bed and kissed his wife

 

“It’s still dark outside, go back to sleep ok”

 

“Kyuhyun-ah”

 

“Hmmm?”

 

“Saranghae”

 

Kyuhyun ignores her and lie down on the bed and continue sleeping; Sungmin’s tears keeps on falling from her eyes as she stares at her husband sadly

 

 

 

 

 

“Prince Hangeng of North!!!”

 

Kyuhyun shouts at his son who is staring at the window blankly

 

“Appa?”

 

“Are you listening to me?”

 

“I’m sorry but we’re are we?”

 

Kyuhyun slam his hands on the table

 

“I’m talking about the extension of our Palace when you marry Princess Mimi of South”

 

“I see”

 

Kyuhyun raised his eyebrow

 

“What the hell is happening to you?”

 

Hangeng just shook his head as an answer

 

“Are you still thinking what happen yesterday night at Jay’s birthday?”

 

“Of course not”

 

“Don’t worry because I’ll handle it, that girl needs to apologize to Mimi”

 

“Why?”

 

“Because of her Mimi’s image has been ruined. People think that she’s evil”

 

“She’s really evil”

 

“What?”

 

Hangeng shook his head again

 

“Don’t you think that Princess Mimi was the one who suppose to apologize to that lady?”

 

“She’s a lower class woman”

 

“So? Mimi was the one who start it first”

 

Kyuhyun cough

 

“What did I tell you about lower class people?”

 

“They’re just a trash in the society and don’t deserve any respect”

 

“Good, that girl needs to apologize to Mimi”

 

“Appa, can I just handle it?”

 

“And how are you going to handle it?”

 

“Let her be my slave”

 

Kyuhyun stare at him curiously

 

“Let her be my teacher and I’ll make her my slave”

 

“Is that really what you’re thinking or your hiding something from me?”

 

“I don’t love that woman; I just want to play with her”

 

Kyuhyun smile and ruffles his son’s hair

 

“That’s my boy”

 

“She’s not my type of girl and beside she’s a lower class girl so I won’t love that kind of woman”

 

Hangeng lied

 

“Can I just handle it?”

 

“Ok, you’re old enough and just make sure that she will suffer from your hands”

 

“Yes Appa”

 

Hangeng smile at his father

 

 

 

 

Heechul was sitting on the chair while staring at the wall blankly

 

“Unnie”

 

She stares at her sister

 

“Is there something wrong?”

 

Heechul pulls her

 

“Ouch!”

 

“Mianhae, but you need to sit with me”

 

Ryeowook sit beside her

 

“Move closer”

 

Heechul pulls her closer

 

“Why?”

 

“I need to tell you something”

 

“What?”

 

“Prince Hangeng kissed me yesterday night before he leaves the party”

 

“What? Prince Hangeng kis—“

 

Heechul covers her sister’s mouth

 

“Shhhh”

 

Ryeowook nod

 

“Why did he kiss you?”

 

Heechul shook her head

 

“Do you think he likes me?”

 

“Maybe...I actually don’t know”

 

“What if he likes me? What shall I do?”

 

“I don’t know Unnie”

 

Heechul suddenly smile so brightly

 

“Ha! I guess that arrogant Prince falls on my trap. I’m really seductive and beautiful”

 

“So true, that’s why Lord Jay likes you so much”

 

“But I like him as a friend”

 

“Because you like Prince Hangeng”

 

Ryeowook smile while teasing her sister

 

“YAH! I hate that arrogant Prince, if only I can kill him then that will be better”

 

Heechul smile at her sister

 

“How about you?”

 

“Me?”

 

“Who is that mochie looking guy yesterday night?”

 

“He’s Prince Henry of Maples, younger brother of Princess Mimi of South”

 

“WHAT?”

 

“Yes”

 

“How can that boy become that evil Princess’ brother? He’s so nice compare to his sister”

 

“I don’t know, maybe he inherit his father’s attitudes”

 

“His father?”

 

“King Donghae of Black-eyed Susan, the handsome man in red”

 

“I see, where is his wife?”

 

“The one wearing the over flowing silver gown. She’s Queen Eunhyuk of Celandine”

 

“Each of them have their own title?”

 

Ryeowook nod

 

“That’s cool”

 

“Because they are Royalties, that’s why”

 

“I need to learn more about them, so you need to help me since Ahjumma gets my book”

 

“Huh?”

 

Heechul grabs a pen and paper

 

“Let’s start our lesson”

 

“What lesson?”

 

“About the Royal Families”

 

“Why are you so interested about them?”

 

Heechul smile brightly

 

“Because I’ll be part of them and you’ll also be part of them”

 

“What are you talking about Unnie?”

 

“Princess Heechul of Never land or maybe Princess Heechul of Versailles, that will be great. Then you will be Princess Ryeowook of Cheonan or maybe Princess Ryeowook of Fontainebleau”

 

Heechul giggles happily while staring at her sister

 

“Don’t be insane Unnie”

 

“I’m just telling you the truth”

 

“How do you know?”

 

“Because I’ll be the author of your history”

 

“What?”

 

“Never mind just educate me about the Royalties”

 

Heechul stare at her with puppy eyes

 

“Please”

 

“Ok”

 

Ryeowook sigh

 

“King Kyuhyun was given the title of King Kyuhyun of Castile and Leon while Queen Sungmin is known as Queen Sungmin of Mayflower. The King of South, King Donghae was given the title King Donghae of Black-eyed Susan while his wife is known as Queen Eunhyuk of Celandine”

 

Heechul writes the information on her notebook

 

“Prince Hangeng of North and Prince Yesung of Mistletoe are the sons of King and Queen of the North and since we’re living in the Northern Town, we’re under the rule of the Northern Palace so you only bow to the Northern Royalties”

 

“And who are they?”

 

“They are the one who lives in the Northern Palace, Pelagia Palace, Notre Dame Palace, Aquidian Palace and Crystal Palace”

 

Heechul nod and keeps on writing

 

“The Northern Palace is where the Royal Family lives while the Pelagia Palace is under the rule of Lord Tim of Apple Blossom. He’s a Duke and has two children; Lord Jay of Nakai and Lady Krystal of Rose of Sharon. His wife died after giving birth to Lady Krystal”

 

“That was sad, I feel so sad for Lord Jay”

 

Ryeowook smile

 

“You like him?”

 

“Of course not, I like him as a friend. That’s all”

 

“He’s really nice”

 

“Yes”

 

“I bet he likes you a lot”

 

“How did you know?”

 

“The way he looks at your eyes, I can tell that he really likes you”

 

Heechul cough

 

“Please continue”

 

Ryeowook notice her blushing

 

“Why are you blushing Unnie?”

 

“I’m just overwhelmed with my own beauty; men really fall for it”

 

“And they can’t help but to stare at you all day”

 

“I bet that arrogant Prince was drooling at me yesterday night that’s why he kissed me”

 

Heechul smile sweetly while reminiscing the scene wherein Prince Hangeng kisses her

 

“His lips are so soft”

 

“Enough of your day dreaming Unnie because Prince Hangeng will soon marry Princess Mimi of South”

 

“How soon?”

 

“Very soon; end of next month”

 

“What? Aigoo, I think I should be in a hurry or else my Prince Charming will end up marrying that evil witch. That’s a big no no or else...”

 

Heechul look at Ryeowook nervously

 

“Are you alright Unnie?”

 

Heechul bang her head on the table

 

“Ouch!”

 

“Unnie, what the hell is wrong with you?”

 

“I shouldn’t tell the Queen that I’m resigning as Prince Hangeng’s teacher. Aigoo, what shall I do now?”

 

Ryeowook pats her sister’s shoulder

 

“Unnie, don’t worry too much”

 

Heechul look at her sadly

 

“You don’t understand, I need to work things out and change the history before it’s too late”

 

“What do you mean by that?”

 

Heechul pouts and brush her fingers on her sister’s cheek

 

“Wookie, I need to tell you something”

 

“What is it Unnie?”

 

“You need to promise me that whatever happen you will be a Princess”

 

“Huh?”

 

“I know that Prince Yesung will always fight for you so please don’t ever reject him again”

 

“Why not?”

 

“Just trust him ok; he loves you and I know that, so give him a chance and entrust yourself to him. I know that he will fight for you no matter what and you must follow your heart. Don’t hurt yourself like this, I want you to live your life with the man you really love and that’s Prince Yesung of Mistletoe”

 

“But”

 

“Shhhh, no more reasons. You will study hard and fulfill your dreams, you can prove them wrong and you’ll be the best woman living here in your era”

 

“Why are you telling me this Unnie? Are you going to leave us?”

 

Heechul shook her head

 

“But the time will come that we need to separate and before I go I want to make sure that you and our parents and of course the people will be ok. I want to make sure that everyone will live in peace and harmony so you need to help me; you need to help me in making those things come true”

 

“I will”

 

Heechul smile and focus her attention back to her notebook

 

“Going back to the Royalties”

 

“Oh, I almost forgot that”

 

Ryeowook clears before speaking

 

“The Notre Dame Palace was under the rule of Lord Yunho of Clover and his wife Lady Jaejoong of Azalea is King Kyuhyun’s cousin. They have a daughter; she’s Lady Sulli of Edelweiss. The Aquidian Palace has been ruled by King Kyuhyun’s younger brother but he died during the war so his son Prince Changmin of Galax was the one ruling the Palace and lastly, the Crystal Palace is ruled by Lady Seohyun of Narcissus. She’s unmarried and King Kyuhyun’s cousin”

 

“There family is really small; how about the South?”

 

“The Southern Land was govern by the Southern Palace and the ruling King was King Donghae of Black-eyed Susan, his wife is Queen Eunhyuk of Celandine. They have two children; Princess Mimi of South and Prince Henry of Maples. The Southern Land is composed of Emerald Palace, Pearl Palace, Halimeda Palace and Atlantis Palace but I’m not familiar who the ruler of each Palace is. I don’t know much about the Southern Land.”

 

“It’s ok, I only want to know there titles anyway”

 

Heechul close her notebook

 

“This thing will help me a lot”

 

“But honestly, why are you so obsessed with the Royalties?

 

Heechul was about to answer her sister when someone knocks on the door

 

“I’ll get it”

 

Ryeowook run towards the door and opens it happily

 

“What can I do for you?”

 

“Lord Jay sends me here”

 

“Why?”

 

“I need to see Lady Kim”

 

Heechul walk towards the door upon hearing her name

 

“Yes?”

 

Jay’s messenger hand her a bouquet of white arbutus

 

“My Lord wants to give this to you”

 

Heechul smile at the bouquet

 

“Please send him my gratitude. I love the flowers, it’s so beautiful”

 

“Yes Lady Kim”

 

The messenger bows to her and went inside the carriage, leaving the place. Heechul close the door and put the flowers on the vase

 

“Someone got an admirer here”

 

Ryeowook smile at her sister

 

“Stop teasing me ok, my heart only belongs to someone else”

 

“And who is the lucky man?”

 

“Secret, I’ll let you know if he’s already my boyfriend”

 

“So unfair”

 

Heechul stuck her tongue out and went to her room happily

 

 

 

 

*CHO PALACE*

 

 

“Umma, can I ask a favor?”

 

Sungmin nod at her eldest son

 

“You know the eldest daughter of Kangin right?”

 

“Heechul?”

 

“Yes”

 

“What about her?”

 

“Can you please tell her to come over? I mean, I want her to be my Literature teacher again”

 

Sungmin shook her head

 

“Why not?”

 

She cupped her son’s face and smile

 

“You’re the one who sends her away so you’re the only one who can bring her back”

 

“But Umma”

 

“It’s your fault anyway. Now if you want her back, do something to bring her back. I won’t help you this time Geng sweetheart; you’re the one who hurt her and not me so you bring her back and not me”

 

Hangeng pouts

 

“You go to sleep now, good night sweetheart”

 

Sungmin kissed his forehead and walk away

 

“Aish! How will I deal with that hard headed brat sharp tongue girl?”

 

Hangeng sigh and went at his room. He takes a warm bath to relax his mind and think of a possible ways on how to bring Heechul back as his Literature teacher. He wears his night robe and went at the balcony to think before he sleeps.

 

“Sungie?”

 

Hangeng saw his brother jump off the balcony and hides at the bush

 

“What the hell are you doing this time?”

 

He went inside his room and calls his messenger

 

“Your Highness?”

 

“Please tell my soldiers to guard the front gate of the Palace”

 

“Yes Your Highness”

 

His messenger bows at him before leaving. Hangeng smile and change his clothes

 

 

 

 

The younger Prince was hiding on the bush while holding a red rose on his hand. He was looking around, checking if it’s safe to go out of the Palace, making sure that nobody will notice him leaving.

 

“What? Come on, how can Hyung’s soldiers guard the front gate? Aish! I thought my soldiers already handle it”

 

Yesung frown while staring at the soldiers

 

“I think I should use the back gate this time”

 

Yesung stand up and prepares his self to run at the back gate

 

“If you will insist to use the back gate, Appa will caught you for sure”

 

Yesung freeze hearing the familiar voice

 

“Sneaking again Prince Sungie?”

 

Yesung slowly turn around and found his brother standing in front of him; he gulp nervously while looking at him

 

“Fine, you caught me this time”

 

“Appa’s soldiers was the one guarding the back gate”

 

“Why are you telling me this?”

 

Hangeng raised his eyebrow

 

“Where are you going little brother?”

 

“I need to see my Princess and explain myself to her”

 

“Why?”

 

“I kissed Lady Krystal in front of her because I’m jealous of Prince Henry”

 

“Love triangle?”

 

Yesung pouts at his brother

 

“Hyung, will you please tell your soldier to let me out?”

 

“What if I don’t want?”

 

“Please, I really need to see my Princess”

 

“Is your Princess the sister of that Lady Kim?”

 

Yesung nod

 

“How can you sneak around without even telling me?”

 

“Because you won’t allow me ok”

 

Hangeng smile at him

 

“But this time I will allow you”

 

Yesung stare at him blankly, he can’t believe just what he have heard

 

“For real?”

 

“You don’t want?”

 

“Of course I want”

 

Yesung smile and hug his brother

 

“Hyung, Saranghae”

 

“I’m going to allow you to sneak around in one condition”

 

“What?”

 

“You’re not going without me”

 

“Why do you want to go with me?”

 

Hangeng flick his forehead

 

“I need to talk with that Lady Kim”

 

“Why?”

 

“I need her to be my teacher again”

 

Yesung look at him curiously

 

“Oh really? You really want her to be your teacher or your Princess?”

 

“Both”

 

“I told you that you’re going to eat your words”

 

“Just shut your mouth and let’s go”

 

Yesung and Hangeng run outside wherein Yesung’s soldiers are waiting with their horses

 

“Please guard the front door until we go back”

 

Hangeng told his soldiers

 

“We will be back soon”

 

“Yes Your Highness”

 

Hangeng and Yesung ride on their horse and went at the town

 

 

 

 

 

Heechul was combing her sister’s hair when they heard someone singing outside

 

“Wookie, is that you?”

 

Ryeowook shook her head and look at her sister

 

“Am I dreaming Unnie?”

 

“No, I can also hear it. Someone is singing”

 

“Oh my gosh”

 

Ryeowook stare at her with wide eyes open

 

“I know who is he, your Prince Charming is back”

 

“No way”

 

Heechul smile and continue combing her sister’s hair while listening to the beautiful song that Prince Yesung is singing

 

“What? Do you really have time to sing at times like this?”

 

“Hyung, that’s my signal when I’m already here”

 

Hangeng frown at him

 

“We’re standing here for almost thirty minutes but your Princess is not yet opening the window”

 

“Just wait ok”

 

“Aish!”

 

Hangeng pick a small pebble on the ground

 

“Maybe they are already sleeping so we need to throw pebbles on the window for them to wake up”

 

“Oh please, you’ll break their window”

 

“Then I’ll pay it”

 

“Hyung, please stop your nonsense plan”

 

“You’re making our situation very complicated. We can’t be away from home for a long hour or else Appa will caught us”

 

“He’s already sleeping”

 

“What if he wakes up? If you don’t want then I’ll be the one who will do it”

 

Hangeng takes a deep breath and throws the pebble as hard as he can but unfortunately someone opens the window; he hit someone’s forehead and not the window

 

“Ouch!”

 

“Aigoo”

 

Hangeng smile weakly at the beautiful lady staring at them seriously

 

“Noona, it’s not me. It’s Hyung”

 

Yesung point his finger on his brother

 

“I’m sorry sharp tongue girl; I didn’t know that you’ll open the window”

 

“How dare you hit my beautiful face with that pebble?”

 

“It’s not what you’re thinking”

 

Heechul frown and throws his red peep toe shoe outside, hitting Hangeng’s head

 

“Ouch! What the hell is that? Watch where you’re throwing!”

 

“You hit me with that pebble then I’ll hit you with my shoe!”

 

Hangeng start blushing because of anger

 

“YAH! You really don’t know how to pay respect”

 

“Guess who’s talking”

 

“What the...you go down here now”

 

“What are you doing here arrogant Prince of Northern Land?”

 

“I told you to go down here now!”

 

Heechul raised her eyebrow

 

“And who are you to command me?”

 

“I’m Prince Hangeng of North, your Royal Highness”

 

“So?”

 

“YAH!”

 

“I won’t follow an arrogant Prince like you”

 

Heechul stuck her tongue out

 

“Beside you guys are here in town”

 

“And what’s the connection sharp tongue lady?”

 

“You’re the one who suppose to follow my command because we’re not on your Palace, get that arrogant Prince of North?”

 

Hangeng smirk

 

“Who are you to tell me that?”

 

Heechul smile making him blush

 

“I’m Kim Heechul, a lower class girl and I’m proud of that”

 

Hangeng stare at her; he can’t help but blush whenever Heechul will smile, he can’t help but to stare on her beautiful face; the face of an angel. Hangeng was blushing so hard while staring at Heechul whose eyes are fix upon him. Yesung cough to get his brother’s attention

 

“Ah Hyung?”

 

Hangeng look at him

 

“You’re face is so red, don’t make it so obvious”

 

Yesung smile at him; Hangeng hold his face and sigh

 

“My bad”

 

Yesung hold his brother’s hand

 

“Where are we going?”

 

“We’re going to climb up the window”

 

“Why?”

 

“Because that’s what Noona wants us to do”

 

Hangeng look at her

 

“YAH! Why do I need to climb up the window? Is that how you accept visitors?”

 

Heechul shook her head while smiling at him

 

“If you want to be caught by Appa then go ahead and enter the door”

 

“Aish! You go out here and not me climbing up there”

 

“You know what...you’re such an arrogant man and you’re not even a gentleman!”

 

“YAH! I’m a Prin—“

 

“I don’t care if you’re a Prince, if you don’t want to climb up here then you can leave now”

 

“You’re making my blood boils”

 

“I don’t care! If you don’t want then I shall close the window now”

 

Heechul was about to close the window when Yesung shouts

 

“NO NOONA”

 

Heechul look at him

 

“Please, I need to see your sister and talk to her. I love her so much; I don’t want to go home without talking to her and explain my side”

 

“Why will I let her talk to a playboy like you? You just hurt her and break her heart”

 

Yesung drop his head

 

“I know but please let me talk to him. I’m just jealous of Prince Henry that’s why I kissed Lady Krystal just to make her jealous too”

 

Heechul smile and close the window; Yesung’s tears start forming in his eyes, he sat at the corner sadly

 

“Lets’ go home now Sungie; it’s a bit late and that sharp tongue girl is pissing me off”

 

Yesung shook his head

 

“Come on, don’t be a kid”

 

“We should climb up the window but you didn’t follow”

 

Hangeng ruffles his brother’s hair

 

“We can go back next time or shall I invite her to the Palace tomorrow?”

 

Yesung shook his head again; Hangeng sigh and sit beside him

 

“I’m sorry but please don’t be upset”

 

“You don’t understand Hyung, I love her and she’s my everything”

 

“Does she love you too?”

 

Yesung nod

 

“Then why did she break up with you?”

 

“Because that’s the way it should be. I mean, she chooses to break up with me because she don’t want me to sacrifice my life because of her”

 

Yesung wipe his tears and look at his brother’s eyes

 

“Hyung, you’re damn wrong when you tell Lady Kim that lower class people are eager to marry Aristocrats or Royalties so they can have a position in the society. They’re not after the money or power, you’re totally wrong because knowing Wookie and having the chance to socialize with the lower class people, they’re not like what you’re thinking. They’re just living a simple life and want to have a peaceful life, hoping that someday they will be treated fairly and can be part of the society”

 

Hangeng look at the sky

 

“That’s not what Appa told me”

 

“Don’t listen to him, he became selfish and his no longer our father. He totally change and become so ambitious and abusive of his power”

 

“But I am the future King”

 

“I know but being a King doesn’t mean that you need to follow Appa’s footstep. Being a King is leading the people in the right way and treating them fairly just like what our grandparents taught us before”

 

“You don’t understand Sungie”

 

“You’re the one who can’t understand; you don’t need to marry Princess Mimi of South, I know you are against Appa’s will”

 

“I need to follow”

 

“You’re hurting Umma especially when you’re being arrogant like our father”

 

Hangeng look at him sadly

 

“I need to marry Princess Mimi”

 

“You’re hurting yourself”

 

“I’ll learn to love her”

 

“You don’t teach the heart to love because it comes naturally”

 

Hangeng was staring at the sky sadly when someone hit his head

 

“Ouch!”

 

He looks around and saw Heechul standing beside her with Ryeowook

 

“Are you just going to sit there?”

 

Hangeng stare at her blankly; Yesung immediately stand up and run towards Ryeowook and give her a sweet kiss

 

“My Princess, I’m so sorry but please let me explain. I love you so much and it really hurts me wh—“

 

Ryeowook hold his lips to stop him from talking

 

“Shhh, don’t be so noisy or you’ll wake Umma and Appa”

 

Ryeowook hold his hand and drag him inside

 

“What are you doing here outside? I thought you don’t want to talk to us?”

 

Heechul sit beside him and look at the sky

 

“My sister was the one who ask me a favor and I just can’t resist her. She loves your brother and it breaks my heart seeing them fighting and it seems that your brother is really true to his feelings for my sister”

 

“So true, he really loves your sister”

 

Heechul smile and look at him

 

“Why are you here?”

 

Hangeng turn his eyes away from her as he start blushing

 

“Is there something wrong in my face that’s why you’re turning your eyes away from me?”

 

Hangeng shook his head

 

“Why are you here?”

 

Hangeng didn’t answer

 

“I’m talking to you ok”

 

Hangeng remains quiet

 

“I guess you don’t want to talk, then I shall leave now”

 

Heechul stand up but Hangeng hold her wrist to stop her from leaving

 

“Please sit down”

 

Heechul go back to her seat and sigh

 

“What?”

 

Hangeng look at her

 

“I’m sorry”

 

“For?”

 

“Insulting you and being an arrogant Prince”

 

“That’s why you’re here?”

 

Hangeng nod

 

“And...”

 

“What?”

 

“I’m going to ask you a favor”

 

Hangeng paused for a moment before talking

 

“Can you please be my Literature teacher again?”

 

“What if I don’t want?”

 

Hangeng hold her hands

 

“Please, I promise to behave this time”

 

“You’ll be a good Prince now?”

 

Hangeng nod like a kid

 

“You won’t make me cry anymore?”

 

Hangeng brush his fingers on her face and kiss her lips gently

 

“I promise not to make you cry”

 

Heechul look at him blankly

 

“I won’t let those tears fall again because of me”

 

Heechul try to turn her gaze away from him but Hangeng cupped her face and stare at her eyes

 

“Please look at me”

 

Heechul look at his eyes

 

“Lady Kim..I...I...I...”

 

“You’re what?”

 

“I...I...think, I need to go home”

 

Hangeng stand up and talk to the man who just arrive with his horse

 

“Your Highness”

 

He jump off his horse and bows at him

 

“You need to go home now”

 

“Why?”

 

“The Queen is looking for you and Prince Yesung”

 

Hangeng nod and call his brother; Yesung came out of the house smiling brightly

 

“We need to go now”

 

Yesung nod still smiling and wave his hand on Heechul

 

“Noona please take care of my Princess. I love her so much”

 

Yesung ride on his horse and left the town happily; Hangeng stare at Heechul and smile

 

“You know how to smile, arrogant Prince”

 

“Well, I think you’re lucky today because you see me smiling”

 

“Pabo”

 

“I’ll see you tomorrow ok?”

 

Heechul nod

 

“Same time”

 

Heechul nod again

 

“Take care”

 

Hangeng smile and kissed her before jumping on his horse and follow his mother’s messenger and his brother. Heechul go back inside the house and locked the door and went to her room smiling brightly
