3RD POV:   While ____ was sleeping peacefully, a full-force debate was happening in the Palace's Living Room:  On whether Jung Jinyoung is rightful to accompany _____ in the journey.   "But he helped her!" Jiyeon protested as Gikwang pointed out Jinyoung's BETRAYAL 10 years ago.   **FLASHBACK (10 YEARS AGO)**   "Jinyounggie-oppa~ Let's play!" She beamed upon seeing the child that seemed lifelessly approaching her. Starting to have worries, she ran to him, "Oppa, something's wrong, right?" She said, tilting her head to check her oppa's face.   "_____-ah, can you stop acting like you care?!" He yelled. "I just came here to tell you never to call me oppa again! Stop bothering me already! I'm TOO ANNOYED! I've been sticking up for SOME BRAT like you who tends to depend on other people too much. DO YOU KNOW HOW BURDENED EVERYONE AROUND IS ALREADY?!" As the last parts echoed in space, tears dropped from the young girl's cheek. Before the boy could even notice that HIS WORDS had hurt her deep enough, she wiped her tears away and flashed a smile.   "I'm sorry Jinnie, I promise _____ won't be a burden anymore. Just don't be mad." She pleaded. "Tch. And you think I'll soften from that act you call 'aegyo'?! Please! I guess my life is better off when I'M CUT AWAY FROM THIS NAME." He had his facade completely covered. She easily got caught by his act.   "Oppa!" The weeping girl reached out to tug at his shirt, but the young man shrugged it off saying, "Leave me alone. YOU'RE AN EYESORE." His cold voice made the weak girl fall on her knees. Before the young man walked away, he e last time to face her, and threw something on the grassy garden grounds...    "Oh, and THAT, psh! It's completely a childish and futile effort coming from SOMEONE LIKE YOU. I wanna get rid of it, but the sight of it alone MAKES ME SICK." He said, his voice colder than ever. Then he walked back to the place where a black car was parked.    Before the pitiful little girl could even get up on her feet to chase HER OPPA, the car was too far away already.   **END OF FLASHBACK**   "THAT'S WHAT YOU DID!" Gikwang sneered. "AND DID YOU KNOW HOW MUCH SHE HATED HERSELF BECAUSE YOU LEFT HER?!" He yelled on top of his lungs. To their luck, ____ was deeply asleep, so she can't hear them at all.    "And you even threw the RING she specially made just for you." Hongki added. "Well? Your side?" Donghae stepped in, hoping to hear how Jinyoung would reason out. "First, I left,but did you even know why?" He started and sighed. "You all never knew the fact that I AM A HORVEJKUL. Only Baro and ____ knew. But see what she did? She treated me like I was never tainted with THAT BLOOD." He started to pull something out from his cloak's pockets again.   "What's that?" Jiyeon curiously peeked at Jinyoung's pocket. "OMO! You kept it?!" She exclaimed, making everyone curious as well. "MWO? What is it?" Was all the rest could say. Then Jinyoung extended his arm out and opened his balled-up fist, revealing a fox ring. Then the all looked at the rng with endearing eyes. "So, you never threw it, huh?" Joon calmly remarked, looking at Jinyoung with sorry eyes. "I've always watched you guys. even ____-ah, when she stayed in Seoul, and the rest of you, even Khun-hyung." Then he coughed. "Uh, sorry." Jinyoung quickly apologized, knwoing that Nichkhun is a topic they would never want to talk about.   "No, go on." Donghae sighed. "Then, when I heard that ____ moved back to Busan, I never told anyone. I kept it as a secret. Then, when I heard the elders of the Horvejkul clan have a little talk in the counsel room, up in the towers of our ancestral house, I heard that they passed on 'the curse' to _____-ah: Which means, like her mom, when she reaches 16, she'll succeed to the infinite effect of 'the curse'. When I came to warn you guys, I was too late." He started to tear up.   "If only I came sooner." Jinyoung hit the wall of the living room and cursed. "Damn them. I won't let them succeed in making HER suffer." He gritted his teeth. "Well?" Donghae suddenly asked the others after hearing the TRUTH from him. The others nodded. Then they all headed to their individual rooms.    "Oh Jin. I almost forgot. You stay at YOUR OLD ROOM before." Hongki informed him. "Arasso. Thanks hyung." Jinyoung slightly smiled, knowing that his FAMILY accepted him again. As he went to his room, he passed by Nichkhun's room in the palace. 'If only you would've dropped your pride and came with me hyung... You might have been happier by now.' Jinyoung sighed to himself as he glanced at the door and immediately went in his room.   **THE NEXT DAY**   _____ woke up ahead others and took a short bath and decide to wore the same clothes since she thought it'd be too troublesome if she'd have a ton of laundry, plus, she never had dirt nor sweat on them. 'I wonder what I should cook for them today?' She thought happily while skipping down the stairs and saw one of the palace maids in the kitchen, preparing their breakfast.   (//A.N.// Since the maid is a native in Celes, the speak Latin here.)   "Oh miss~" ____ chirped happily as she went and greeted the maid. "Oh good morning Young Miss. How may I help you?" She politely asked. "Well, I wanna make breakfast~" ____ chirped cheerfully and the maid smiled as a response. "Really? WOW! Thanks a lot and I promise, I won't be a mess~" She did a salute gesture and then ____ made a sumptuous breakfast.   The others woke up, surprised as they got awakened by the aroma of Korean food. They all showered and changed into their clothes and wnet down to eat breakfast. The most struckking part that made their jaws drop was to see _____ wide awake, more energetic than ever. "Oh~ Annyeonggie Everyone~ Come, let's eat now~! I especially cooked for all of us today since Jin-oppa is back!" As she cheered, everyone chuckled at how cute she was.   "WE'LL EAT WELL. THANKS FOR THE FOOD." Everyone said grace and then started to eat up. "I feel so go
