8 years later.

Yeona walked through the palace gardens admiring the spring flowers.

"Your Highness."

She pursed her lips. "Minhyung, as Captain of the Royal Guards I really expected your memory to be better."

"Excuse me?"

She sighed. "How many times do I have to tell you to call me Yeona? For goodness sake, we've known each other for 18 years!"

Minhyung scratched his head and cheekily smiled. "Yes but, you're the queen now and-"

"And as your queen I am ordering you to call me Yeona. It doesn't matter who is around us."

"Right, well, Yeona," he walked towards her and extended out his right arm. "There is a letter for you."

"For me?" She grabbed the letter and turned it over, her eyes widening as she immediately recognized the crest indented into the wax seal.

Images of brown eyes and golden skin, hushed whispers and stolen kisses flashed through her head. She lightly shook her head, pushing the hidden memories aside and opened the envelope.

Minhyung watched as her eyes scanned through the letter before closing it and handing it back to him.
"It's been a year already?" She asked.

"What do you mean?" He opened the letter and read it. It was a birthday party invitation from Haechan and Haru.

"Since they had their son," she smiled bittersweetly. "Time sure does fly by fast."

"I'm sure he would love to see you again."
Yeona chuckled, "we both know that that can't happen."

"It could."

She sighed before turning to Minhyung. "Let's go into town, shall we?"

 "Let's go into town, shall we?"
