point of view

Soobin quickly dashed at the castle's garden. Their garden wasn't just an ordinary one, the land area is enormous, enormous enough for it to become a farm.

"Now, where do I plant these seeds.."

He chanted in his mind as he scans the land area. There are some places that are too grassy, and the other are just pure dirt.

The prince sighs,  "what did the Myungju-noona told me again?" He thought, recalling what the flower lady told her.

The blonde prince decided to find something for the chaos prince, he doesn't much know about his hobbies since Yeonjun doesn't tell him much about himself.

But, at the same time, for Soobin, Yeonjun felt like an open book. He can read the chaos prince's expressions, and so on. He doesn't understand the conflicting feeling inside his chest.

Looking around, a flower standee caught his attention. The flowers that were the lady was selling are roses. It's quite uncommon at that town since it's too cold in Rising Moon, and the sun doesn't shine much there.

"Hello, mister! Looking some fresh flowers, we got them all here!" The lady exclaimed, excitedly looking at him. Soobin walked closer until he saw the roses.

There were red, blue, yellow, violet, and white.

"There are white roses?" Soobin asks, completely puzzled as he observes the flower. At first he thought it was a scam, but then the lady handed her a pouch of seeds.

"Here, plant this, young man. Take care of it, and give effort to it!" The lady speaks, confidently handing the pouch.

The blonde hesitated, but still accepted the pouch. He handed three gold coins to the lady and sprinted back to the castle.

"Hey! This is too much!" The lady shouted, but the prince didn't even looked back.

The blonde didn't know what to do, so he went to a clear area of their garden, and started digging.

Some time later, he finished digging land. He hopes that the depth of the hole is enough and right for the seed he'll plant.

The prince placed the seeds one by one, trying his best not to step on each hole.

"Alright, I think it's time to cover, and water it." Soobin says, wiping out the sweat on his forehead. He covered the holes carefully, then giving it a light tap as an assurance to himself.

Soobin nodded, feeling proud as he did something valuable. He feels his blood rush from his arms to his brain.

"What is this weird feeling.."

He thought but neglected it sooner. Soobin swiftly pulled their hose and turned on the faucet where the hose was connected.

As he was watering the plants, he heard his mother scream again.

"Soobin!" She shouted, the blonde assumes that his mother is screaming at the top of her lungs, because even their maids flinched.
