"The next time you come back late, I'm not covering up for you" Mirae scolded as she silently closed the back door.

"Sorry, didn't think I'd be a bit late" Y/n apologised.

"A bit ? You are almost 2 hours late"

"Yeah, yeah, sorry, now don't nag at me" Y/n chuckled.

"Anyways, did you meet the prince again ?" Mirae questioned when Y/n finally returned and sat down.

"Huh ? Don't you call him a lover boy ?" Y/n confusedly questioned.

"You said you don't prefer it" Mirae laughed but the shade on Y/N's face turned slightly red, "You like that name, don't you?"

"N-no, it's not like that, I just go adjusted t-to you calling him that"

"Yea, why don't you spill the salt"

"Salt ?"

"Yeah, like tell me what happened"

'wow, so, spill the tea is basically spill the salt in here'

"About what?" Y/n questioned.

"Lover boy confessed."

"W-what?" Y/n chokes on the water she was drinking and coughed hard to look at Mirae.

"Seems like my guess turned out to be true."

"Oh, shut it"

"I'm not blind to not notice the blush" Mirae smirked.

"Shut it" y/n replied with a sly smile.

"You are a frequent visitor of this place, aren't you?" Y/n chuckled and called out for Riki who was startled by the presence of Y/n in the forest.

"O-oh, it's you."

"Riki, what's wrong, tell me." Y/n questioned, being worried. Riki didn't reply, he smiled at the girl beside him and looked at the view ahead.

"Do you know where we are right now?" He questioned instead. Y/n raised an eyebrow, not quite understanding what he meant.

"This is the place the Prince will come tonight to face the one plotting against him" he explained which left Y/n shocked.

"How did you-

"Prince informed."

"what are-

"I'll follow him. Will you accompany me?"

"Riki, will you really?"
