Is Your Heart Gucci? | BEOMJUN

56

"I want a divorce." Yeonjun is seething as he slams his hands down in the table that he was standing over.

Queen Eva and King Damian are seated next to each other while Yeonjun is standing across the table. Eva looks at him as if he's a toddler throwing a tantrum while Damian has his fingers interlocked under his chin, staring at the table cloth deep in thought.

"Don't you think you're overreacting?" Eva raises a brow

"TODAY!"

"It doesn't work like that, Yeonjun," Eva continues. "Under what guise are you even requesting this on?"

"He's a traitor!"

"To whom? He's been faithfully loyal to Obeliav and Tai-Wei"

"To me,"

Damian puts a hand in Eva, signaling her to calm down and let the prince feel his emotions. The prince is shaking with anger, and tears are pooling into his eyes from betrayal. Even the sound sound of his voice is affected. He has to spit out his words; soaking them in disgust, or else it will quiver in pain.

You're probably wondering what led the prince to his current state. To understand, we have to return to early morning.

...

"Where's King Grandpa?"

"Good morning to you too, Jii." Yeonjun waves at his son as he takes a seat at the table.

"You're late to breakfast. We're all just about finished." Beomgyu gestures at his plate with about two bites left.

"I was with the king since early morning," Yeonjun explains right before he begins scarfing his food down. Jii pushes himself and his seat away from the table and runs off to who knows where, leaving Yeonjun and Beomgyu alone.

"You're spending more time with him." Beomgyu smiles

"Well, yeah, it's kind of the whole reason we're here," Yeonjun begins to eat his breakfast

"Are you enjoying it?"

The prince shrugs "Its not the worst thing - I could be in a boring meeting with old men, but I'd honestly rather be with you." Yeonjun winks at his love

"You can't be with me all the time,"

"But I can wish," Yeonjun sighs disheartedly "anyways what are we doing today?"

"Well, I'm thinking about going into the wooded area to look for flowers."

"Why? There's a whole royal garden in the courtyard. " The prince continues his meal and makes a face."This is kind of gross. "

"It think it's good, but anyways the book that I checked out from the library has none of the ones in the garden, I'm wondering if there's a secret valley of flowers out there-" Beomgyu shrugs "-it could be nothing but I don't have much to do anyways" Beomgyu picks at his cuticles, a somber expression crosses his face.

"Whats the matter?"

"I miss my family,"

The words cause the princes heart to sink. Of course, he's always thinking about how all of this must be affecting Beomgyu. Sure, he still video calls and talks to his family and friends from home, but being away for four months is sure to put some strain on the heart. At least when Kai was around, he had someone.

Selfishly, on the other hand, the prince doesn't want Beomgyu to leave; afraid that if he let's him out of his sight, he wouldn't come back.

Then, Queen Eva enters the dining room. She was wearing a gown, but this one is more on the casual homey side - well as casual as a jeweled gown and gold stitched seam can get. Her hair was put up into a beautiful bun with strands of hair pulled out and framing around her face.
