The Hwarang men are finally back at Hwarang House after being invited to spend luncheon at the palace. Chunhwa was the last one to return to the Hwarang House as she had to take some more of her clothes and have a talk with the Queen in regards to her training the Hwarang men in the future days to come.
"Has anyone of you seen Miss Ahro?" was the first question she asked to the group of Hwarang men she crossed paths with when she finally returned to the Hwarang House.
The Hwarang men looked and asked each other if they did and apologized as they said no but the female teacher only nodded at them with a smile before moving away. Damyi was at her room and was arranging the clothes that she had brought from the palace so she was currently alone looking for the female physician.
"Lady Heo?" a voice spoke— making her turn to her left and see Pi Jooki looking at her with a smile. "You seem to be looking for someone."
"Ah, yes." the young maiden nods, "Perhaps, have you seen Miss Ahro?"
"Miss Ahro? Oh, yes. I did. She had just entered the doctor's house with Master Jidwi not too long ago."
"Is that so? Well, thank you." she says with a smile before bowing and continuing her way.
Pi Jooki looked at her departing back and nods to himself. "Aigoo, what a really nice person she is compared to the princess."
Chunhwa carefully climbed up the stairs to the doctor's house and entered. Just as she was nearing the room to Ahro's quarters— she heard someone speaking and couldn't help but stop by the door to listen.
"I feel like you are put in danger because of me," it was Jidwi who was speaking. "So I get angry at myself."
"Aigoo." it was Ahro's voice this time. "What is the point of being mad at yourself? Even if no one in the world is on your side, you should still be on your side. Even if you are pathetic and weak, you should trust yourself."
Chunhwa smiled at that, finding the female physician's words very wise. It seems that the two were having a deep conversation so she decided not to bother them for a while and turned around to walk away.
'I see.'

Hansung was strolling after dinner as they still have free time to loiter around before the curfew hour. As he walks by the doctor's house, he notices a foot sticking out by the bushes and couldn't help but feel curious and made his way towards it.
To his surprise however, he finds Chunhwa sleeping soundly— her back resting by the cold stone wall of the doctor's house. How come no one saw her here? Also, how on earth was she able to sleep this long? Out in the open?
But those questions seem to be long forgotten— Hansung couldn't help but admire her sleeping face that was being shined upon by the moonlight as he crouched beside her.
"So pretty..." he tells himself with a dreamy sigh.
Chunhwa softly scrunched her nose as she heard someone speak. She then started to wake up— her eyes slowly opening and blinks up at Hansung who was staring down at her with a somewhat creepy smile.
