When the world became too much and he sought refuge in a nearby pool, Taehyung never could've imagined that the strange sensations that washed over him would catapult him hundreds of years into the past.
But before he could catch his breath, he foun...

The queen looked at Taehyung with no expression at all, her eyes fixed on his face. "I haven't seen you before," she said, her voice without emotion.
Realizing the gravity of the situation, Taehyung quickly bowed before her. "Yes, Your Highness," he said, his voice shaking slightly.
The Queen's expression remained unchanged, her eyes piercing Taeyung with a look of dispassion as she placed the plate of food on the table.
"I came to visit you," she stated, staring at Jungkook, her voice soft but commanding, "because I haven't been able to see you for far too long."

"I'm worried about your health, day and night," she continued, her voice filled with concern, even though her expression remained unchanged.
Jungkook, who had been watching the exchange with a mix of confusion and frustration, spoke up. "As you can see, we are studying hard to take the responsibilities of Joseon properly," he said, gesturing towards the books and papers that filled the room.
But the queen did not seem convinced. She turned and exited the chamber with her maids, leaving behind the lingering smell of spices and the sound of her footsteps.
After leaving the room, Queen Jimin found herself staring at Bogum, who stood outside the king's chamber. He was known to be one of the king's most loyal followers, and he was often seen in the king's company, ready to assist him in any way he could.
Jimin felt a sudden pang of annoyance. "Why are you always next to his majesty?" she asked, her voice dripping with sarcasm.'' You have become his loyal dog!!"

Bogum spoke, his voice even and controlled. "The same goes for you," he said, his words a sharp stab in her heart.
Feeling angry and frustrated, the queen turned and walked away, with Bogum's words ringing in her ears. She knew that she needed to find a way to regain control over the situation, but as she walked, she felt as if the walls were closing in on her.
The moment Jimin left, Jungkook and Taehyung were left alone in the lavish chamber with piles of delicious-smelling food. However, Jungkook didn't seem interested in sharing the food with Taehyung. Instead, he was making faces at Taehyung, bringing the food near Taehyung's mouth and then taking a bite. To make things worse, he was laughing hysterically at Taehyung's expressions of annoyance.

Finally, Taehyung had had enough. He reached for his backpack and pulled out an instant noodle cup. With a mischievous grin, he held the cup in front of Jungkook's face and then took a bite, imitating Jungkook's behaviour.
"Have some," Taehyung offered, his voice dripping with sarcasm. He offered Jungkook a bite from the noodle cup, and to his surprise, Jungkook took it.
"Woah, this is amazing," Jungkook exclaimed, his voice filled with surprise. He took the bowl from Taehyung and began to devour the noodles, making licking noises as he ate.
For a moment, the two boys forgot about their earlier tension and enjoyed the noodles in silence. It was a small moment of levity in an otherwise tense and difficult day.
