The Enchantress

99.

Prince Chaeyoung.

I have always respected father with everything he have done, but after doing all his duty... He gained a lot more of my respect. How did he did all this?

It's been a month already yet I'm still not used to it. Everything is confusing. There's always something new to learn and here's always a lot to do everyday.

Yuun, who has been assigned to be my royal assistant, was keeping me informed about my schedule everyday. I admit if it was just me, there would be a lot of things I won't be able to do. It'll be chaos.

"Knock knock, may I talk to our hardworking King?"

I look up and saw Momo by the open door of my office.

"Hi, Momo. Sorry had a lot to do." I said as I was reading a scroll that I'm holding. No this is not what I'm looking for. I rolled it and searched through the pile of scrolls beside me. I got startled as Momo stomped his hand on the table.

"Chae, come on stop for a while and breathe."

"I can't I have a..."

"Shhhh... Just stop for a second and let yourself rest for a while. Come on close your eyes and breathe deep."

I stopped what I'm doing, rest my back to the seat, closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

"Take another one..."

I did as what he told me.

"And another..."

I took another long and deep breath. He's right. I needed that. It made me calmer.

"Thanks. I didn't know I need that."

"You're already overworking. Are you trying to kill yourself? Hey, we need to crown you first before you die."

I laughed at him.

"Speaking of crown... Everything's all set. I also cleared your schedule in the next 3 days. We need you alive to be crowned, not a dead one."

"Why 3 days? There's a lot..."

"Why? You're asking me why?" He went closer to me and hit me in the head. "Cause in the 4 days you'll be crowned, you idiot!"

I rub the top of my head. 4 days?! It's that near? Now I'm getting nervous.

"I swear you're the only heir to the throne that's not excited on their coronation. Hell I'm just a spare and I'm more excited than you are."

"How can I be excited when I'm nervous."

"I get it you hate the spotlight. But brother you've been on the spotlight ever since you were born. This coronation is just to finalize your ascend to the throne. Come on brother." He then chuckled. "Look how funny you are. You weren't this nervous when you fought in the war."

"Yeah... It's... I don't know... Let's just get on with it."

"Yeah. Don't worry you'll get your rest after tonight. I'll leave you be." He then turned and walked towards the door. "Oh I almost forgot. Here!" He threw a scroll towards me and I caught it.

"What's this?"

"Your inspiration. I'll go now." He said then left the office.

I unrolled the scroll and instantly smiled as I saw the familiar handwriting.

"Hi, My love.

How are you? I hope you are well. That is not right not to eat in time. Who is in charge of your schedule? I'll see to it that your schedule to eat is on time too. Well, I'll make Tzuyu and Momo see to it.
