After the king's venture to the bar to meet who were supposed to be him the king was silent and lost. Taehyung, who was again sitting in front of him can see the sourness on his friends face. He already know just by looking at Jungkook that the boy in the bar wasn't the one he was looking for. The counselor didn't bother to say anything to jungkook as he was sure that the king needed a little bit of time to himself.

The gifts that he bought earlier was not with them. When jungkook asked Taehyung to take the boy back to his house jungkook asked his coachman, still wearing his disguise, to give all the gifts on the room to the boy's family. Even though the baker wasn't his boy, he still have it to him since he technically bought all those things for the baker. Besides jungkook doesn't really need anything that he bought as he probably already own a lot of those in his palace.

That day, the day seems to pass so slowly, which was not in jungkook's favour. All he did once he came back to the palace was to go through meetings with the king of the Northern Kingdom. After all of that jungkook found himself laying on his bed inside his room. He was tired. Meeting with the boy that made him very unmotivated for the day when he found out he wasn't him, Jungkook won't admit that. Then he went through these boring meetings with the king, listening to their boring conversation that doesn't even matter to him. He sighed thinking about it covering his eyes with his arm.

It was again time for dinner when Jungkook woke up. This time though the princess his 'fiancé' wasn't the one who called him to notify him, she actually listened and asked one of her servants to tell him that it was time. Thank god she did that. Jungkook doesn't want to hear her voice once again today, he doesn't want to make his day worse than it already is. Then once again he sat with the family at the table to eat dinner.

The next day jungkook was invited by the king to tour the kingdom, he accepted the invite because of two reasons. First, it's because he didn't had the time in the past two days to do the tour by himself. And the other was he rather tour the whole property of the Northern king than to hang out with her daughter. This time the king wouldn't ride his carriage while traveling, the king planned that they would ride horses by themselves today. Before leaving he excused himself to go to the palace's kitchen to get some water. Once he reached the back kitchen he saw a woman there cleaning the counter tops, he cleared his throat to get her attention.

"Oh! Your Majesty what can I help you with" Rose replied smiling at him while she was wiping her hands on a small towel to dry them.

"I just needed some water." He replied smiling back at the woman. Rose immediately gets a glass for the king to drink with, pouring water on it from a pitcher before giving it to the king. He gulped the water down in instant till the glass was empty again then he gives it back to the servant who served him mouthing a 'thank you' when she gets the glass again. She left him once again to put the glass on the sink, just when she thought the king left he heard the king talking to her once again.

"By the way... Do you know any workers here who's name is Jimin?" He asked a little bit hesitant.

His Majesty must be close to my boy to call him by his name. She thought.

"You know my sweet boy your majesty?" She asked back stoping what she was doing to look at the king.

"You're his mother? I thought his mother was dead." He replied a bit confused. The other hummed in reply continuing to wash a few things on the sink.

"I am not, Your Majesty. I'm only his guardian well it's more like I consider myself as his." She said.

"Do you know where he is right now? I didn't saw him last night as well." Jungkook said a little bit worried about the boy's whereabouts. And yes, jungkook did look for Jimin the night before wanting to rant to him about how horrible his day was but he never even saw the boy Inc last night.

"I don't know Your Majesty. In a few years I've known my boy, he never showed himself to me during the day. And sometimes he wouldn't even show in some night, he never tells me where he goes as well." She replied to him truthfully.

The king sighed at this a bit disappointed, he was itching to see the boy and he didn't know why. Rose bowed to him when he thanked her once again then left to go back to where Taehyung and the king was. When he reached the stables he saw the king talking to Taehyung, Taehyung carefully listening at the king while he was deciding the horse he wanted to ride. Jungkook joined them but he kind of just walked around to look at the horses there. He stopped at one stable when he spotted a horse that had caught his eyes. The king reached out his hands wanting to pet the horse's muzzle, he didn't expect it when the horse leaned on his touch.

"It looks like she likes you." A voice behind him said, It was the king. "She never reciprocate my feelings towards her." He continued chuckling at his statement.

"What's her name?" Jungkook asked.

"Primrose. Her old owner calls her 'Prim' just to make it shorter." The king replied. "She was taken here 4 years ago from the West. Said she was the missing prince's horse. I gladly welcomed her as she was still young that time plus she's a beauty, cant say no to that." He once again let out a small laugh. Jungkook however, still petting prim, remembered the boy from the event when the king mentioned the missing prince's birthday. This made him let out a small sigh.

Guess he won't see him yet and his idea on where the boy was staying was back to zero once again.
