After I have said my goodbyes to the two women in the hallway, my feet lead me down the stairs into the kitchen. Along with serving the actual meal I also have to cut some of the vegetables that goes into it.
I don't mind having lots of duties to do. I was pretty much forced to do most of the work at the music store. Since my the other workers were slightly discriminating me all the time, they decided I should be the one doing most things while they could take as many breaks as they wanted to.
My normal duties in the day are preparing food with other servants, cleaning up the dining room and take the dishes to the kitchen. My non-daily duties are to fix the garden to make it look nice and clean to the eyes of the royal family or their guests, take care of the horses with another male servant, and since last week my duty is to teach the princess how to play the piano.
When I heard the piano coming out of one of the rooms, I had to come inside. I used to play the instrument every single day ever since I started working at the store and I didn't get the privilege to play since The Queen and The Princess saved me.
I was grateful they noticed me out on the street. I felt relieved when they told the guys to get away from me and then them putting out the suggestion of me working for them at the castle. But I do miss the everyday music.
Whether it was the piano, violin, guitar or any other instrument I played. I loved to listen to it and make it myself.
Hearing someone play the piano while I walked past a room in the hallway made me feel better in a way. Although I did feel great since I wasn't in an environment with toxic people, the music made it even better.
When I walked inside of the room because of nosiness and saw princess Misun playing, there was a warm feeling starting up in my body from the music.
My first thought was to go away before Misun would notice me, but the invisible rope which tied me to music was stronger and I decided to come inside and compliment her.
Seeing her behind the instrument days ago made me feel the passion. It was clear to me she has never been taught how to play. Having the practice that I have gathered, I could tell immediately and I was somehow happy when her father - The King - walked inside of the room and gave me the opportunity to teach his daughter.
Since then I have become more interested in the woman. Without any bad intentions. I was curious about her life. She will be a queen one day and I wondered if her life can be any more perfect.
But how wrong was I.
When she told me about her mother's mistreatment towards her, I felt both pain and relief.
Pain because no one deserves to not feel loved by the person who put them into this world. And relief because there was someone with a similar situation like mine. I was a simple peasant who didn't have any duties to his country and ran away from my family. She on the other hand has to live in this life forever.
