============================

"My dear son, we brought you here to tell you that we have found you a wonderful girl to marry!"

My mother would clap her hands together in excitement
"Isn't it exciting, Son?" My father spoke

"You guys are joking, right? There's no way, I'm only 23! I have PLENTY of time before I get married!"

I'd speak with fury, disappointment, denial, and more in my voice as I stood there looking at my parents as my mother spoke

"Son, it's now or never. We are getting older and you'll have to take over the throne and it's too much for you to take it over alone." My mother would speak in her usual calm, kind, sweet voice as always taking a few steps closer to me as I spoke
"I understand mother but I don't want to get married just yet. I still have so much time le-" I'd say but got cut off by my father
"The wedding is in a week, no exceptions or excuses. You will also meet your fiance tomorrow."

I would look at my father with pure disappointment and disbelief as he continued to speak.

"Your butler or whatever Bang Chan is already preparing your siut for tomorrow, be ready by 8 in the morning"

============================

As I walked up to my room I passed by a few maids trying ever so subtly trying to get my attention but I chose to ignore them and focus on getting to my room and talk to my friend Bang Chan who's probably already waiting for me in my room and as I arrived I would've proven my point for him to be there and done with my suit already.

"Oh, hello sir." he would speak
"Please, just call me Jeongin. We are friends after all." I would walk over to my closet and grab a pair of pajamas to change into
"before you ask you can just set my suit at the usual spot on my windowsill seat"

I'd look at Chan before he spoke and as he spoke"of course si- I mean Prince Jeongin"
I'd shrug and start walking towards my bathroom
"It's getting there I guess."

After I was done changing I would see Chan still in my room
"You may leave but wake me up at 7 please, Chan" I'd say walking over to my curtains closing them and looked at Chan to see him bowing

"Of course Prince Jeongin." He'd stand back up and walk out of my room shutting the door behind him and I'd let out a small sigh when arriving at the last curtain and looked out the window seeing a kingdom just barely in sight and that's when I got the idea.

I can run away before the wedding and live a normal life with who I choose. I would look down and see a horse stable and immediately sat down at my desk and started to write on a piece of paper my plan to run away then I hid it then closed the last curtain then went to sleep with ease.
