'Your highness, you don’t like the food?' asked changmin again he did not know why but he went along with Junsu's behavior trying his best to stay smiling

'I hate the food' frowned Junsu, every eye were on him, standing behind TOP's hand tightened around his sword as he hated it every time this brat princess looked down on the kingdom

'Su' warned yunho but Junsu still frowned not touching the food

'How about you order something, any food you want' tried changmin again not knowing that this way he was making someone very sad that he felt tears about to drop from his eyes

'Hhmm…. I want mixed rice' pouted junsu

'Huh? What is that?' pouted changmin

'Aish, Junsu eat what is in front of you or else I will write to Yoochun telling him how bad you are, I will forbid him to write to you for a month!' yunho hated to do this but Junsu did not leave him any other choice and it worked like magic, hearing his hyung's threat Junsu frowned puffing out his cheeks and added some scramble eggs to his plate

'Good boy' smiled yunho as everyone watched Junsu eating bitterly obviously not happy, everyone but one, TOP's eyes widened the second he heard the name Yoochun, the man he heard so much about, the man he wanted to challenge, the man he looked up to as a rival…

'Happy now?' Junsu ate a couple of spoonfuls from the scrambled eggs before looking at yunho

'Su…' yunho knew Junsu was angry, he knew Junsu very well, he could read him like an opened book and right now he could see the anger in his eyes, anger mixed with deep sadness and feeling so guilty yunho did not know what to say or do

'How about you go to the markets after breakfast your highness? Maybe you will find something you like' smiled changmin

'Yea su you love going shopping' nodded yunho

'I love going shopping with chunie hyung~' mumbled Junsu to himself

Breakfast finished and Junsu sighed, he was going to go to the markets with TOP and some soldiers to protect him, entering the carriage Junsu frowned, tears were threatening to trail down his face as he missed his chunie hyung now, he wanted him to take him to the market, to ride with him not like this, not this way in the carriage. This felt weird…

The road was not long, they reached fast and TOP hurried to open the door and offer his hand to Junsu to help him out of the carriage and into the market

Walking from one stall to another and from one store to the other Junsu frowned, nothing looked good enough for him, everything looked pale so after an hour ad something of walking without buying anything he looked at TOP:' let's go back, I don't seem to like anything'

Frowning TOP did not say anything; it took him a lot of effort not to say anything as he helped Junsu back to the carriage and saddled on his own horse riding back to the castle trying to hold back his anger and not do anything he will regret soon

Reaching the castle Junsu got out of the carriage and looked around:' why is the garden so full?' he whined

'There is a privet one of you want' offered TOP hoping that finally there will be something he will like

'Where?' blinked Junsu and Top led the way, walked into the castle he led Junsu to the privet garden and opened the door, no one was there so smiling for the first time Junsu looked a little content as he entered and went to the swing, sitting down wrapping Yoochun's cloak around him tighter Junsu started to rock softly inhaling the sweet scent of the protector

A while passed and Junsu was feeling home sick already but he snapped when he heard the door being opened, shortly after a boy entered one of the two weird brothers but he froze as he saw Junsu and bowed at once

'I… sorry I did not know you are here your highness... I will leave now…'

'Stay… who are you anyway?' Junsu feeling lonely wanted someone to talk to

'I'm kibum your highness…' again kibum bowed

'You are one of the three brothers' nodded Junsu remembering

'Yes… the youngest…' again he bowed

'Oh' nodded Junsu feeling awkward, he did not feel like he usually did with strangers, the boy did not leave this icy cold feeling in his heart so he felt that he maybe could spend time with him now, not befriend him but spend some time with him

'Sit' hissed Junsu

Bowing again kibum sat down trying to hide his notebook but Junsu saw it

'What is this?' he asked and hesitating kibum did not know why but he felt he could trust the princess so he told him about the story he is writing, not the reason behind it but about it, he told him the story like a fairy tale

'And how will it end?' pouted Junsu wanting to know the end of the fairytale

'I did not write it yet, I don't feel like writing it' kibum looked down fighting his tears

'Do write it, I want to read~' pouted Junsu more as kibum nodded, he can't say no to the princess not after changmin ordered them to be super nice to him and to do anything to make him feel home

Sighing Junsu felt bored and home sick again, he wanted home already and he felt like dying so looking around he pouted:' what do you do here for fun?'

'Err… going to the market or going for a walk to the lake you highness' bowed kibum

'I want to go for a walk' decided Junsu and bowing kibum stood up:' this way' and Junsu walked behind him, as they walked out of the castle's building TOP saw them and walked behind them without a word

'This is…' sighed Junsu as he walked around the castle's grounds, it was nice but still it was not home, and he knew where he loved the best

'Everything alright your highness?' hesitated kibum to ask

'No' whispered Junsu sitting down finally an hour after they started walking, kibum sat beside him while TOP stood behind them

'I was forced to leave home, to leave my friends and my people, I was forced to leave my peaceful happy life and come here, to a land I don’t know and hate… I feel home sick and I want to go back' whispered Junsu tears filling his eyes already

'I know how that feels' whispered kibum

Wide eyes Junsu looked at the boy as kibum sighed, tears sliding down his face kibum wiped them away before speaking:' I used to live happily with hyungs, mom and dad but suddenly I lost everything, mom, dad and even our farm house we used to live in since we were babies… I was living like nobles and believe it or not I used to wear nice cloth, I used to look pretty when I was young but everything changed now… we have to depend on changmin shi fully for living and we had to move to the castle, it worked good for siwon hyung but for me and Jae hyung… we liked the farm house better, it was more cozy and still we can't complain… changmin shi was kind enough to invite us here…'

'I miss home~' whined Junsu

'Me too~' agreed kibum, both of them allowed their tears to slide down, both gave up on trying to look happy and started to act how they feel… lonely and home sick

'Err… kibum shi, your highness…' TOP did not know what to do

'Let's go back your highness' whispered kibum wiping his tears away

'Okay' whispered Junsu as he stood up too, dusting off his gown he walked back with kibum and TOP till they reached the castle. It was lunch time already and although Junsu was not in the mood to eat he went to the dining hall and sat down again looking at the sparkling siwon and wondering why was it so deferent between siwon and the other two brothers

'Su, eat something dear' tried yunho but Junsu only looked at him with sad eyes and did not say anything

'Your highness I hope this will cheer you up but I ordered the chef to make you one of your dish, the one you asked for at breakfast…mixed rice' smiled changmin as a servant came and bowing he served Junsu his mixed rice

Looking at the dish Junsu felt worst, more homesick than ever and it showed on his face for sure because everyone in the hall looked at him with worried eyes as he looked at the dish but did not touch it, everyone but siwon who was busy eating himself and not carrying about anything else

As lunch went by Junsu went to his room, he wanted to take a bath and read a book, leaving yunho with changmin and TOP

'What happened to him? I did not mean to make him sadder just now…'

'He is just home sick, as I told you before it is so hard for Junsu' explained yunho

'I know and I understand… I just hope my cousins will be able to make him feel better'

'I doubt that' whispered TOP

'What? Why?' frowned changmin

'The princess went for a walk with kibum shi and apparently he made him more home sick by telling him about how he missed his home too' explained TOP

'What? After I told him to make him feel home!! I will make him pay for it!' hissed changmin

'Let's work on the agreement, the sooner we finish it the better for everyone' suggested yunho and changmin nodded as he took a mental note to scold kibum when he finishes this…
