Aera sit down next to Yooha as they sit in front of Nakyum room terrace.

Duyun was standing next to Yooha while Aera sat down next to her with small smile.

"Nakyum really such a cute and pretty boy"

Yooha turn to look at her "why are you saying these out of sudden?" she asked as Aera laughed and looked at the wide yard in front of them.

"He's not really my type but I think he look good next to you, my lady"

Yooha chuckled resting her back against the wooden wall "don't be ridiculous" she shoot back and before Aera able to tease more, someone interrupt. 

One of the servant of the house bowed her head "My lady, crown prince is looking for you. Should I bring him here?" She asked.

Aera shook her head and stand up "let me talk to him before he talk to you. Duyun, you follow me" she said and headed to the entrance along with Duyun.

Yooha also stand up and was about to leave when the sliding door slide open, revealing Nakyum.

He flushes face looked at her as she stare back, surprised at the sudden presence.

"What's wrong?" She asked as Nakyum shake his head "I want to tag along too" he said and Yooha let him to tag along. Not long after that, Sunoo join them too.

They headed to the entrance to greet the guest who visit out of sudden together. Yooha stand in front of her loyal friends and looked at the crown prince straight in the eyes.

"Why are you visiting here, your highness?" She asked with politely but stern tone.

"It's been awhile since you visit us. Even though you promise that you will" he said with his arms crossed.

"Even now, I was hoping to meet you alone but I guess you attractive many people along"

"It's not good for crown prince like you visit young lady like me. Let alone be just us alone. Rumours will spread if we ever seen together, Seja jeoha 세자 저하 (His Royal Highness the Crown Prince)" she said formally.

As if he was someone distant.

The crown prince looked away with upset feelings but hold back "I guess I had the wrong timing to visit you so I should just head home" he said and turned around

"You should take care of your image. You are crown prince and you shouldn't hang around someone who had bad rumours around like me. That's ruining your reputation" Yooha reprimanded him before adding

"About the visiting, tell your parents that I will visit them tomorrow in the afternoon. That's all. Goodbye" she said and watched as he leave the residence with heavy footsteps.

"I felt bad for the crown prince but he really doesn't suitable with our lady" Aera said as he leave the sight. Duyun nudged her side glancing at Yooha expression.

Aera cursed herself and keep her out shut tight. Sunoo cling to Yooha arm almost immediately "Yooha, should we eat some snacks?" He said acting cute as Yooha hummed and they was about to walked back when Master Choi stand in front of them.

More like in front of Yooha. Sunoo tighten his grasp on Yooha arm as he actually scared of this master Choi who was the opposite of Yooha.

His eyes scanned the crowd around his daughter "I see that the crown prince still have his favor on you" he said as Yooha doesn't really replied to it.

"You should think of what he been talking about. Marrying him will brings us tons of Fortune and reputation" he said again as Yooha let out a small sighed "I won't marry him, father" she said and looked into her father eyes
