Kyungmi P.O.V.

I am so nervous!

2 weeks ago, my dad told me that he couldn't wait any longer and that I needed to be crowned as soon as possible. Then I wouldn't be married, so what! He said that the crowning would be in three weeks. He invited all the important people of the country and also from other country's! After that, there will be a very official dinner.

Anyways, today is the day and in a few hours I will be a queen! The thought of ruling a country all by myself only is nerve-wrecking!

'Seungkwan, for the fourth time, no!' I yell when Seungkwan tries to convince me to wear a big, pink, poofy dress. 'How many times do I have to say I don't like poofy dresses?!' I place my hands on my hips as I say. 'But you need to look perfect darling!' He complains. 'If I have to look perfect, why don't I wear this one.' I point at a more simple, cream-colored dress that's laying onto the chair in the back of my room. Seungkwan looks at it critical before nodding. 'You have a great taste!' He says.

After discussing for a few more minutes about the right way to wear the dress and which accessories to wear, I'm finally in the dress and Jeonghan comes in to do my make-up and hair.

'Thanks guys, it looks amazing!' I say after looking into the mirror. 'You once again did an amazing job, what if you weren't here for me?' I ask them and I look again in the mirror. They both chuckle. 'It's our pleasure.' They say at the same time.

Then, my dad comes in and before he closes the door, Hoshi also sneeks in. 'Are you ready?' My dad asks serious. 'Sort of.' I say a bit insecure. 'That's fine, I'll wait outside for you.' He walks out and then I really start to panic.

'Guys, I'm so nervous! I don't know what to expect or how things will go. What if I mess up everything? I never experienced this before!' I start to breath heavy and I grab the chair for more stability.

'Everything will be fine, you'll see.' Jeonghan says and he pats my shoulder. I smile thankfull and look at Hoshi. 'Do you think I'll do well as a Queen?' I ask him. 'Ofcourse you will! You'll be the best Queen!' He says without doubting. I smile thankful and open the door. My dad offers me his hand as soon as I'm outside and together we walk away.

The room where we need to be is huge, but I have no time to admire all the pretty things. Everyone is looking at me and my dad. 'Time to use the Princess lessons from Professor Hong.' I think. I walk straight to the center of the room, following my dad. Not to slow or to fast.

There, on the table are laying two documents and a pen. There is also laying a beautiful crown. It's a crown all little girls dream about when they're young and want to be a Princess. It's full with little diamonds and it has the perfect shape and size.

What kind of freaks me out is, if my dad signed his document, there won't be a King or Queen in the qountry till I signed. Can you imagine that! It's not a big deal or something, but still. It's a little freaky.

I know, I am weird!

However my dad reads the papers carefully and puts his autograph at the end of the papers. It seems like forever until he's done. He gives the pen to me and now it's my time to read the papers. I feel that I'm shaking and sweating and the pen slides out of my hand. I laugh nervous and pick it up quickly, everyone still looking at me. I try to ignore it. It's just that, people are expecting great things from me when I'm Queen and that scares me. I am not as great as it looks.

When I read all the papers, I take the pen and sign. Atleast, I try, and try again, but the pen doesn't work. 'It's broken.' I playback to my dad. I can see a bit panic in his eyes but he waves at a guard at the door, pointing at the pen. The guard understands him and walks away.

I'm actually glad the pen doesn't work, now I have a little delay for being a Queen since I'm a little scared, but at the other side I'm worried. What if something happens in the country? There is no King or Queen!

Then, the guard comes in with a new pen. I take it from him and take a deep breath. Then I sign the papers. When I lift my head, people are applauding for me. I bow a little, while I nod my head. A lot of guards lead us to the opposite of the hall where the balcony is.

'You need to present yourself to the people of Swaïlle. You just go trough that door, the only thing you have to do is wave.' My dad say as he puts the crown straight onto my head. I nod and walk towards the door glancing one last time at my dad. He nods smiling to me.

Then, two guards open the door for me. As soon as I'm outside I'm kind of suprised. I hear screaming, yelling and clapping. I didn't expect so much people to come! My smile becomes big when I see all those people. I start waving and I keep smiling.

After standing there for 5 minutes, I go back inside. My dad is patting me on my back. 'You did well!' He whispers so only I can hear it. I can see tears in his eyes and I see he is really proud of me. I look at him again and think 'My dad is now a Prince, that actually means I'm more important than my dad since I'm a Queen. And I'm only 19 years old!' I smile.

'You can go to your room now, you're guards will bring you there. I'll give you an hour and a half before I pick you up again, we have an important dinner!' Then he leaves.

On my way to my room I see a lot of people and they all want to congratulate me. I need to thank them everytime, very polite ofcourse, but it became very annoying after a few times, to hear the same thing everytime. Also to say the same thing everytime was annoying. But I rule these people now, I have to be the right example for them.

When I enter my room, I see all my friends are there. They're clapping.

'Congratulations!' They shout all together before pulling me into a firm group hug. 'Guys! Please, let go of me! You're crushing me!' They let go. 'We're sorry! we should be carefull and polite to our Queen.' Sunhee says and they laugh at me. 'Yes, very funny.' I say sarcasticly.

Then Hoshi comes in. I run towards him to give him a hug. 'I did it!' I say happy. 'Yes, you did it! I'm so proud of you!' He says while he gives me a kiss on my forehead.

After chatting a bit with my friends, Seungkwan decides it is time for me to change clothes. I change into a more  formal, red dress and not long after that my dad knocks on my door. He came to pick me up, together we walk to the dinner room which is on the second floor.

I have to be honest, I don't remember a lot of the dinner. I was so tired afterwards that I think my brain deleted most of my memories of the dinner. The only things I can remember is that the food was delicious, serious. It was sort of a buffet, more than 20 tables full of food! I also remember that I needed to shake a lot of hands, again. Everyone that didn't congratulate me yet, wanted to do it now. Some people did it even twice!

Oh! There was also this very spooky man. He was older than my dad and a widow. His wife died when he was only thirthy, his young years, he told me. Now, another 30 years later, he wanted someone new in his life.

Everytime he spoke to me, he stood very close to me and once he even tried to kiss me, I guess. That's how it seemed atleast. Man, everytime when I saw that man again, he gave me the shivers. I told my guards about that man and everytime he came they managed to keep him on a distance.

Howevery, the day ended well! Can you imagine it,

I'm now a Queen!

While writing this I got very hungry! I also want a buffet with more than 20 tables. Can you imagine how many food that is?! It would be really something for me since I'm literally always hungry!
