"I guess I created them to be warm. It's not real. It's all fake. After all, this kind of good thing was originally made that way. Don't dwell on such pitiful feelings."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I said not to dwell on such pitiful feelings yet 3 weeks have passed and I'm still attached to it. Why? They're just a mere character!"

"Knock knock," said a sweet voice

"Come in" Seohee answer

"Why does my daughter look so down?" Duchess Yi ask

"Does she have power like mind-reader? If not, how can she read my mind?"

"Haha, what are you talking about? I'm fine" Seohee answer while trying to hide her actual feelings with a smile

"You think I don't know you? Tell me, what's bothering you?" Duchess Yi asks as she sits down in Seohee bed

"It's really nothing," said Seohee

Duchess Yi look at Seohee's expression and body language and know for sure that her daughter Geurim wasn't feeling well. However, she decides to not bring it up.

"Alright, if you say so. But why aren't you getting ready?" Duchess Yi ask

"Getting ready for what?" Seohee ask

"Is my daughter so cold-hearted? Did she really forget our little date?" Duchess Yi ask herself and look upset at Seohee

Seohee saw Duchess Yi's expression and wasn't used to her being upset so she was quite nervous, "W-what's wrong?"

"Nothing! you figure it yourself," said Duchess Yi as she leave Seohee room while feeling upset. "My daughter really care about me"

"Did I do something wrong?" Seohee ask the maid

The maid looks at Seohee with a horrified expression, "Young Miss!"

"W-what? Did I do something wrong or not?" Seohee continue to press for some answer

The maid was now quite upset, "You figure it out" said the maid as she leave Seohee room

"Why are Mrs. Yi and the maid are like this?! What did I do wrong?" Seohee ask herself nervously

Seohee, for the first time, go to Duke Yi office

Knock Knock

"Come in" Duke Yi answer cheerfully

Seohee went inside and sit on a couch.

"Oh, it's you Geurimy! What brings my little quokka to me?" ask Duke Yi with a smile

Quokka?

"I want to ask of you something," said Seohee

Duke Yi was quite surprised, "Why are you being so formal?"

"Ah, I mean I want to ask something," said Seohee while feeling embarrassed

"And that is?"

"Why do you think the duch-mom is upset at me?" Seohee ask

Duke Yi ponder for a moment before replying, "Did you steal her favorite food?"

Seohee blink in confusion... did she? Of course not!

"N-no?"

"Hmm... Did you perhaps make trouble with the slave boy again?"

"No!" Seohee responds firmly.
