Jang Ok-Jeong
The door files open His Majesty stands in the doorway
I stand quickly
His Majesty runs to me embracing me tightly
"Yi Sun" I whisper
We stand there alone
He starts to sob, his cries filling the room
"What is wrong?" I ask
His Majesty takes a step back
"The Queen Mother is ill," He says
I dry his tears gently as he gasps for air
"What do I do Ok-Jeong?" He asks
"Come here, into my arms and let me relieve some of this pain off your heart" I whisper to him
I take his hand and guide him to the bed
I lay down and he lies beside me caressing him until he falls asleep
