Hwarang: A Different Kind Of Halfbreed.

chapter 5

Ai & Bai ☝☝

Mei hadn't gone to the parade because she knew that jinheung wasn't going to be in the palanquin, it would be empty again this year just like every other year.
However she had left a gift for jinheung outside his room at the inn he was staying.

She wished she could've given it to him in person but since he couldn't recognize her it would be strange for 'Jung' to give him a birthday gift when they barely knew each other, how was she going to explain knowing his birthday?

Ai and Bai were suddenly keeping her under lock and key, if she wasn't studying and learning embroidery with Ai, she was sparring with Bai.

All though most of the lock down came from Ai she was like an overprotective sister, Bai was more lenient and easy to talk to.

Mei and Bai were out in the garden training and Mei couldn't help but get frustrated, she'd been locked in the house for two whole days and hadn't been able to get in touch with pa oh.
She also missed Han sung.

She threw her sword to the ground, then snatched Bai's sword and threw it across the garden.

"What is your problem? " Bai asked looking genuinely offended.

"You are, you and your sister. I want to go outside, its been two days already please. I miss Han sung and I-" Mei stopped mid sentence and turned away from Bai, pouting.

Bai sighed, he hated it when Mei threw a tantrum, it usually affected everyone in the house and then she wrote long vulgar letters to the Emperor which resulted in he and Ai getting scolded by the emperor on one of his secret impromptu visits.
