Our New Journey
ImpulseAnother cold morning came again. Nothing particular changed in the weather rather in the temperature. Xiumin was still providing winter on his entire country. The white sun rises up along with the grey clouds. Daylight is slowly shining, everyone has began their lives once again.
Blessed wake up at the sudden sweet scent, it was from the kitchen. Something is spilling from its vessel. She get up to see what is it, she find out that it was a bottle of an expensive perfume. She had no idea why there is such a thing in the house. She believed that never bought a something like that. She caught herself spacing out on the precious liquid, she shook her head to be fully away. Yawning, she grabbed a rag and cleaned up the pleasant mess. Maybe it was Xiumin again, maybe Tao secretly put it on the cupboard when she wasn't looking. Her forehead furrowed into thinking. Today is a different day. By noon the two will fetch her and they will discuss about the voyage.
The translucent light hits her face, she closed her eyes and avoided it. She stood up and went towards the door, she exhaled as the plain and white color reminded her of a someone. Of a friend, of a person that she can't forget, but it was not Sehun neither Xiumin. She slowly touched the pane and smiled. Soon, they will be meeting again after a long time. She wondered how he was doing now, she hoped for the best to come. Blessed was still drowsy, so she quit on those thoughts and went back to bed.
Spotting a chance to sleep again, she turned around to face Chaerin. While her hair, Blessed realized that her eye are tired of resting for days. She couldn't doze off anymore for today. So she get up and gave up. As she fixes her bed, she noticed the pad paper beside her new friend. She checked her hands and saw ink stains, she must be in deep thoughts last night.
Blessed carefully picked it up to see. His lips opened, there was a short but an emotional letter. She read it slowly and became curious of is that for. Her eyes moved back and forth at her and to the paper. A soft chuckle burst as Taeyong suddenly flashed on her mind. She smirked and leaned towards the wall.
"We'll be happy someday. We'll be together forever. My heart is fluttering whenever I'm with you. My ultimate promise is to stay by your side whatever it takes. I will pro" it's unfinished.
Blessed shrugged and bended her knees. The cold was fading away because of the heart-warming love letter. She can't stop herself for being amused, it was hilarious.
"She's in love, I can't believe this." she said.
Chaerin heard her noises, she cracked her eyes and looked at her. She moaned as a warning to her. She woke her up in a bad way. While Blessed is still busy laughing at her note, she secretly wandered her hands underneath her pillow. It grew wide when she felt nothing, she quickly get up and threw her sheet away against the floor. She her right direction and she has already left her there. She took everything in their room just to find it, she is in panic. She climbed the cupboard, she lifted the bed, she almost stumbled everything there. It was nowhere to be found.
She heard Blessed's happy giggles again, her eyes grew wide as she realized that it was because of her pad paper. She quickly stepped out of the room and went to the kitchen. There was strong, musky but sweet smell. She almost throw up. She looked at her with an expression of annoyance, Blessed pretended that she didn't noticed him. She just continued on reading her notes. Judging by her gesture, she is really into it. Her hands were placed under her chin and her posture is straight. Both of them haven't comb their hair or washed their faces.
Chaerin was embarrassed, she silently leaned on the wooden wall. Biting her lower lip, she kicked her foot to create a sound to disturb her concentration. Blessed finally looked at her, and to piss her off more she winked and show off her pad paper. She rose up and went towards the stove to check her boiling hot water, she was still holding it.
Chaerin's forehead wrinkled in irritation. She ran towards and nagged her personal belonging away. She was huffing and her cheeks were blushing red. Blessed just laughed so loud at her, her expression was filled with pure joy.
"I was about to wake you up, but I found your note pad interesting." she said.
Chaerin returned to their room to get a pen. She leaned towards the wall again and wrote very fast. Blessed, still amused was watching her until she was finished.
"Screw you!" she almost her with it.
"Should I tell Taeyong about this." she smirked.
Chaerin inhaled, poked her forehead and hit her on the shoulder. Blessed continued laughing, she lost her balance and fell on the floor. Chaerin continued on beating her, but she never hit her serious. She was feeding her good mood though.
In afternoon, Tao and Taeyong arrived to fetch them. Today, they will be heading back at the Ice Castle to meet Xiumin and discuss several matters before they sail. But before that, the king sent them some fine and elegant dresses, hats and shoes. Blessed enjoyed the opportunity to dress up Chaerin.
Taeyong was impressed to see how Chaerin turned into a beautiful fine woman with the dark blue lace dress and a white coat made of pure wool. Tao couldn't stop laughing from the way that Blessed walks into heels. She was shaking and awkward. Her clothes were a huge contrast at her manners, she wasn't a feminine person. So she just shifted in flats and a simple set of clothes.
Frowning appeared in her face as she sees herself on the mirror, she was not like Chaerin. She came out of the room with sadness. But Tao told her that it's fine and Xiumin would still be happy to see her even though she didn't wore what he sent. It was unfair, she was the only one who wasn't wearing a glamour clothes. Tao and Taeyong were both wearing a well-pressed black suits. Their hair are slicked back and it suits them perfectly. Her disappointment faded as they stepped in the carriage. It was a long drive, they arrived at twilight.
The knight guards and servants greeted them politely. They were all courteous and nice to them. They accompanied the four of them inside, Blessed found herself astonished as Chen appears. He was timid but was able to manage himself. He wanted to hug her for being safe without him, he longs for her so much.
While they were heading to the room that King Minseok prepared, Chen's eyebrows are shaking, Blessed glanced at him. He finally gained a grain of courag
