Soras pov

I spent 2 hours teaching Prince Eun how to paint a flower and the results was decent, he did better than I thought he would. "Thank you so much Sora" He said as he picked up his paper and ran off with it, I smiled and cleaned up after us and looked round to see Baeka and his girl walking past. I heard what sounded like an arrow pierce something so I looked round to the table that did infact have an arrow in it, a note was tied to it. 

I pulled the arrow out and looked around to see no one nearby, so I untied and unfolded the note and read it. "Meet me at the bamboo forest, I've got something for you to do" It said and I rose my brow then put the note in my hanboks sleeve pocket before rushing away and going to my horse. 

I rode to the bamboo forest to see a man and a girl standing there, when I stopped my horse I got off and stepped over to him. "You the one who sent this note?" I held the note up and he turned to me quickly, "I was originally going to send it to the King but I thought it'll be easier with his personal maid" The man said and I hummed a little, "What do you want to give the King?" I questioned and he pulled the girl forward, "I found her near the village, she was searching for King So" he said and I looked towards her. 

"What does she need with the King?" I questioned, "To reunite they know each other" The man said and the girl stepped towards me, "Hello I'm Go Haijin..." The girl introduced and I stared at her, "You're not from around here are you?" I asked and she smiled awkwardly, "No I am not but I'd like to keep that to myself" She said and I nodded, "Alright I'll take her" I said and the man smiled, "Goodbye Go Haijin" The man said before rushing away from us, I got up onto my horse and so did she, she held onto my sides and I rode back to the palace. 

"You're new here aren't you?" Haijin asked me but I ignored her and got off my horse, "Here we are" I said and lead her to the throne room. "Your majesty I've brought Go Haijin here to see you" I said and he stood up quickly, "Go Haijin?" He walked down the stairs and looked to the girl behind me, he eyed her over and smiled widely. "You're back but how?" He asked and she looked to me, "Can we speak in private?" She questioned to him, "Sora please leave" King So said without even looking at me. 

And that's how it's been for weeks now, he pushed me away and always hung out with Haijin, no more mister nice guy towards me - it was like I was forgotten and now just a personal maid who he demands around. "Sora go and get Haijin a cup of herbal tea" he demanded and I walked out of the tea room to get Haijin her drink. The other servant made it for me and I carried it back, placing it on the table and she sipped it. "It tastes...weird what is it?" Haijin asked and I pointed to it, "Herbal tea" I answered and she shook her head. 

"You gave her something else didn't you?" King So glared up towards me, I took the cup and shook my head, "No your majesty I-" "Enough! Get out!" He said and I stared at him for a few seconds and he stared back at me, "...Yes your majesty" I said and backed away then turned and rushed out of the room. 

I headed to find Prince Baeka but he was busy with Woohee, so I went off to find Prince Eun but he was with Prince Jung. "Sora?" Prince Yo held onto my shoulder and I turned to him, "Yes Prince Yo?" I asked, "Why do you look so sad?" He asked and I shrugged, "I'm nothing to the King anymore now that Haijin is here....What happened to me being his best friend from Silla? Forgotten..." I explained, "It's torture for you isn't it?" He asked and I nodded slowly. "Maybe try talking to him when he's done with Haijin?" He suggested and I nodded slowly, "I'll try that thank you Prince Yo" I smiled up towards him and he smiled back a little. "Prince Yo my brotherrr come on" Prince Won dragged Prince Yo away and I waved towards them then turned around to see King So coming my way. 

'Try greeting him how you'd normally greet him see what he does' I thought and when he got closer I nudged him with a smile, "Hello again" I said and he stumbled a bit but then caught his balance and just stared at me, "Don't do that again, Maid Lee" he said and I blinked a few times. It's the first time he has addressed me that way, "Anyway, Haijin needs somewhere to stay other than that hotel in the village, can she have your room for now?" He asked, "And where will I go, your majesty?" I asked, "...Well I was thinking you could take her room....in the hotel for now" He said and I stared up at him.
