Flora
I look dumbfounded at the door " my mother is just talking nonsense! You aren't forced to marry me whatsoever SO don't worry" I chuckled, the last thing I wanted was to make Taehyung uncomfortable with my mother's last comment. Yes, I do have to get married by the end of the year but I'm sure there might be some type of leeway right?
"I'm not worried about that, I understand what your mother means though, honestly I rather you marry me than someone random pompous royal" Taehyung boldly stated "oh..." I couldn't help but blush a little maybe Taehyung is here for the long run Ugh I just can't brush off the fact that he dated Iris at one point 😔
I'm sure it's all in my head if Taehyung said it's in the past I should believe him 😁
"Princess I'm going to excuse myself her majesty the queen woke me up and rushed me out for this meeting and I desperately need some food in me ASAP 😫" Jungkook looked like he was robbed of his one joy in the world "you can go" I giggled at how he quickly left the room leaving me and Taehyung alone.
Taehyung comes up and takes my hands "what should we do today?"
"Well today I have some classes I have to attends then I have to meet with my ladies to go to a fitting for a dinner meeting"
"Busy I see" he laughed " sadly I wish I can spend more time with you but considering our relationship will most likely be out in the public by the end of the day your family may want to meet with me to see how this now because it an institution ordeal now" I hated how I was able to enjoy this relationship which was freshly new in private for a short time 😔 I would always hear stories from older staff that works here about the day the whole of France and the institution found out about my father dating my mother
They were swarmed with public support and how refreshing it is to have an outsider coming into this royal family...but with every good, there's a bad my parents lost privacy every time they stepped out. Some hated the fact that my mother wasn't from royal blood or even from France threats were made once they found out my mom was pregnant with me.
Am I ready to go through that? I mean is anyone ever ready, I already get threats about simply being a woman I don't think I can handle anymore. Taehyung is from royal blood but to some of the older French people they'll still consider him an outsider
"What's on your mind?" He holds my hand a little tighter "I'm nervous that's all" I smile. Taehyung guides me to sit "tell me what's troubling you?"
"I'm scared that you'll start to get threats for being associated with" Taehyung softly holds my face and brings it up so I'm looking at him "I'm prepared for anything that comes out a way don't worry about me well push through this as long as we're together" he lightly kisses my forehead which releases all my stress and worries away even if it just for a brief moment

Jungkook
"Oh my gosh, this breakfast burrito is the best thing I've ever eaten! Damn Evelyn, you have some amazing cooking talents!" I can't help but stuff my face that's damn meet was stressing me out all of the press conferences I'll have to attend is going to kill me 😫
"Eat as much as you want sir!" Evelyn continues to cook while light music stars playing
"Evelyn, why are you even making food? We have people to make it for you?" It was a genuine question becoming a lady in waiting came with so many perks and one of them is having food made and given to her.
" You see, I liked cooking when I was back home! Before I came here I had big dreams of becoming a chef I even wanted to go to culinary school after I graduated but life and my father had other plans"
"Do you ever want to go to culinary school?"
" I hope I can...one day when I get married I hope my husband approves of me going to school" she continues to scramble eggs on the nice silver Pan fit for a top chief
"Why do you need his approval? We don't live in The olden days plus, isn't your family already rich, why do you have to even get married to some guy?"
"Geez, you have a lot of questions, you know that!? But yeah my father wants me to have a title that way my family can step up in the social ladder"
"I'm sorry"
"Why are you sorry Jungkook you didn't do anything"😅
"I'm sorry because you shouldn't be here you should be at school following your dreams"
"I guess... let me ask you a question: why did you become an advisor? I doubt you wanted this housekeeping after royals, don't get me wrong I love Flora she been nothing but kind but most advisors are a lot older than you"
"Well I was born into this job I really can't say no"
"Right! And I was born to be married off. It sucks but I can only hope for the best at this point. Even if we have the luxury of not being a royal we still don't live normal lives"
The room was silent for a bit, Evelyn was right. I was essentially bred for this job. I've been lucky enough to have times where I can model and make a name for myself as a top-tier advisor with a good reputation. I never really had the option to choose my path...what do I want to do with my life? Now that my million-dollar question.
"See it isn't simple anymore, hope is all I have to trust now," Evelyn said as she sets the eggs on my plate "I'm going to go clean up" she smiles "I hope we can talk like this again soon byeee"😄
Evelyn takes the pans she used and takes them into the room with the bigger sink to wash them. Her petite frame fades as she walks away till she disappears. Who knew a small conversation with lady Evelyn would have me rethinking my entire life 😦
