Misunderstood

The Princess' Ice Heart

It was early morning, and she smiled as she sat up, stretching her arms out. Jieun opened her eyes and turned her head, hearing something cinubg, A cart appeared next to her with plates on it. The two maids took the lids off the plates to reveal what it was. She widened her eyes, it was pancakes, french toast, mini sausages, scrambled eggs, and then they poured orange juice into a glass cup. They were quiet for a moment and smiled at her reaction, "Gong Ju Mama, is this good?" one maid asked. She looked at them and nodded, smiling.

"Thank you so much, and you can just call me Jieun," she said, but she doubt they would. The two maids looked at each other then smiled.

"If you need anything else, Mama, we will come," the other maid said. Jieun gave a nod with a smile and watched as they left. She slipped her legs over the edge of the bed. Picking up a fork she decided to try the pancakes first. She put a piece into then smiled with joy. "So good!" she said to herself and smiled, continued to eat. She ate a bit of the egss and sausages. But was starting to get get fool. "There's alot still." A pout appeared on her face. At home, she didn't want to waste food. So she would always eat it all. Though, this was alot compared to back at home. Drinking some of the orange juice, the maids appeared again and scared her.

She turned to find them and jumped, they bowed to her. "Sorry, Mama. We will take the food back now. The king wants to see you. Do you want us to get the butler to lead you to his office?" one of the maids said, she had short hair.

"It's okay, I can find it," she said, and they walked away with the crate. Jieun didn't want to have to use another one of the clothes that the king had them buy for her. Looking through her bag, she got out pants and a pretty blue blouse. After she got dressed, she went out to find the king's office. She had her bag in her hand, and went down the hallway, looking around. At first, she had almost thought that she got lost. But within a few minutes she found it. Before she could knock on the glass door, he had already seen her.

"Come in," he said cheerfully and she nodded, going inside to sit on the couch near him. "Did you have a good sleep?"

Jieun gave a nod then smiled gently. "Thank you. But..." her voice trailed off. He smiled and looked at her.

"Soon, maybe if you want.. I can take you to your parents' room?" he asked her gently, and it caught her off guard. After a nod of her head, he smiled softly. "Okay, want to now?"

That's when she stood up and smiled, "Yes. I want to see." It made her feel slightly nervous though. The king nodded and smiled, getting up to his feet with his cane. He began to walk with her down the hallway slowly. The butler behind them. It was silent for a bit but it was alright because she was still looking around. Everything felt so weird, she wasn't use to this. Then after a short time, they finally got to this room. The butler opened the door for them. As soon as they stepped in, she couldn't help but to feel sad. There was a big photo on the wall of them with a baby in their arms. That's me?.. She walked a bit more into the room and looked around at the things they had. Angel collections, a baby crib near the bed. And other things, but she began to feel sad. And the king can tell.

"You want to leave now?" he asked her softly. And she turned to him, shaking her head.

"Can I have a moment alone in here?" she asked, he gave a nod and walked out with the butler. Jieun went to sit on edge of their bed. Looking around still, and then a tear rolled down her cheek. She looked at the pictures they had around the room. Her parents looked so happy. A soft smile came to her face and then she thought of her other parents at home. Umma..Appa..I'll come soon. She gave a nod then stood up, wiping the tears away. The butler and the king were standing a few feet away from the door. Coming out, he smiled to her and waited. She smiled back and walked to them.

"When can I go home?" she asked him. The king looked surprised and thought about it.

"I'm not sure. Tomorrow, you can go. But you must come back," he said and she started to feel a bit upset.

"Why do I have to come back?" she asked and he looked to the butler, the smile had dissappeared from his face. Turning back to her, he said, "You're the princess. We have been looking for you since you were a baby. I have not done anything to your parents. They did not get you legally." Jieun widened her eyes and was upset for sure now.

"Don't do anything to them. They are good parents," she said and then thought about it. "Can I just visit them sometimes? I'll stay here. I won't leave." He thought about it once again then nodded.

"Okay you can do that," he said and it made her feel a bit better. They walked back and she wanted to go to her room to put her bag back, but the maids shook their head. Grabbing her arm and leg as she was about to walk away from the office to her room. How they were holding her arm and leg, she felt surprised.

"Mama, we'll do that for you, please just let us," two cried out and she simply nodded. Still feeling a bit weird on this. Giving one of the maids her bag, she watched the maids separate. The king just smiled and the butler as well. Jieun walked down the stairs and made her way to the garden. A bright smile came to her face. She can finally visit the garden alone. At least that's what she thought.

Walking down the trail, she looked at the beautiful flowers. Sometimes she would bend down to smell a few. She let out a deep breath and went to sit on a bench near the middle of the big garden. Looking up at the sky, she kept thinking to herself. I'm a princess..what happened to me? She thought she was alone and didn't notice footsteps coming near. Until she felt someone sit beside her. It made her jump to see who it was, Yoseob.

He smiled at her and she couldn't help but to smile back. "So you like the garden best out of the palace?" he asked her, looking around.

Jieun gave a nod and smiled, "Ne, it's so beautiful. I've always wanted to make a garden. But never got a chance." A sigh escaped her lips. He looked at her and tilted his head.

"You okay?" he asked her, and she shook her head.

"I'm not use to all of this. I miss my parents. Over here.." she didn't finish the sentence. Yoseob understood though. He let her think for a bit.

"Things will be okay. You've got me as a friend here," he said, and that made her smile. She didn't think that she would get a friend.

"Thank you," she said, looking at him and smiling big. He smiled after seeing her with that smile on her face. The only thing was that he was starting to feel shy again. Rubbing the back of his neck, he laughed and smiled.

"Well, you want to do something later on?" he asked. Giving a nod, she smiled at him, not feeling sad anymore. "Lets meet here again in two hours."

"What are we going to do?" she asked, and he smiled, putting a finger of his mouth.

"It's a secret," he smiled as he got up. She giggled and watched him leave. Neither of them had noticed that someone was watching them. Just when she was starting to feel better, footsteps came near. And she thought it was Yoseob again.

"Yo-" she began but once she saw who it was, she stood up quickly. It was Wooyoung. He smiled and clapped, coming up to her.

"You got him on your side quickly," he said while clapping. He smiled, more like a smirk and got close to her. She glared at him, and her hands turned to fists.

"I'm not doing anything wrong. What do you want from me?" she asked, all she wanted was to go home. But since she couldn't do that, she wanted to feel better. Not him come and ruin her mood again.

He leaned to her face and stared her straight in the eyes. "I want you gone," he said coldly. She uncurled her hands and let them hang at her sides.

"I don't want anything. I don't want your money and I don't want to be princess!" she said, and turned away, running to her room. She wrote a letter to the king and then left it on the table next to her bed. Grabbing her bag, she began to walk, trying to find the doors to exit. Too frustrated and sad, she got lost.

Until someone found her. She turned a corner and found one of the princes in front of her, Changmin. He noticed the bag in her hand and sighed. "Lets go," he said, and she looked confused. He grabbed her hand and she followed along behind him. Though she kept staring at him. When they finally reached the entrance, they walked together to a car. He opened the door for her then got into the driver seat. "Want to go to your parents right?" he asked.

She looked at him a bit surprised then nodded gently. Changmin smiled gently at her then started to drive off in his red mustang. The big entrance gates opened up for them and she told him the address of the street. He knew where it was already.

From a far, Wooyoung watched them leave and a smile came to his face. Though, the butler walked up to him along with Yoseob and Taeyang. "Yah! What did you do?" Yoseob asked, upset. He looked at them and didn't say anything. Taeyang hit something against his chest. He looked to see that it was a letter from the princess to the king. After reading it, he looked confused. She didn't want anything. Not money, or any clothes or anything from here. I was wrong? They looked at him upset, except the butler. He just sighed and then Wooyoung nodded, giving the letter to the butler.

"I'll go get her," he said and this time it made them surprised. I have to apologize.
