DEOKSUGUNG PALACE
YOUR POV
Our van slowly passed through the large crowds gathered outside of the palace. As we have been seeing on TV for the past few days, the crowds have considerably grown in size. Although there are barriers and soldiers outside, it doesn't look safe and anytime, it's as if the crowds would be able to storm the palace.
The palace gates opened while several soldiers formed lines to prevent the crowds from going inside the palace complex. Our van quickly moved through the complex and stopped right in front of the lobby. I saw my dad, PM Lim, Mr. Kim and some officials, waiting for us.
Commander Song and the soldier in the driver's seat in front went out first; they bowed to my dad before opening the door for us.
"Your Highness, welcome home."
I could feel the irony coming from his own words.
"Prison is more like it." I replied. The commander didn't reply.
I got out followed by Kihyun, Dasom & Bora unnies, Seokwon and the soldiers with us.
When my dad saw Kihyun, he got angry.
"And why is that brat here?!"
"Because he doesn't deserve to go to prison, dad!"
"How dare you talk back to me like that! I am your father! I am your King!"
"I know you're my dad but only BARELY! As for a King? I think you're only steps away from becoming tied with a certain someone we all know and hate. Should I say some initials?"
"YOU FOOLISH, DISRESPECTFUL AND RUDE GIRL! YOU WILL PAY FOR EVERY NONSENSE THAT'S COMING OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!"
"Sure and decisively place not only the throne but also, the monarchy at stake."
Dad went silent as he glared at me.
"Now then, dad, if you still are the father I know, let Kihyun go home. Now."
"And why should I follow you?"
"Well, you said you are the King and as King, a Catholic King if I may add, one must show mercy and compassion. Aren't I right, father?"
"GET THAT ORPHAN BRAT HOME! RIGHT NOW!"
Commander Song made a salute and bowed.
"Kihyun, go home now. Get some rest. You'll be much safer there."
"But how about you?" he asked me.
"I'll be fine. Don't worry. We'll be able to talk again soon. I assure you of that."
"TAKE HIM AWAY!" My dad shouted. Commander Song opened the van's door and motioned for Kihyun to get inside.
We hugged each other before he went inside followed by the soldiers with us.
"If anything happens to him, you'll have me to answer to!" I said with a loud voice.
"Don't worry Your Highness. We will deliver Mr. Yoon safely to his home. Um, where is it?" Commander Song asked prompting me to say.
They left soon after that while we went inside the Palace.
"I want to see mom."
"No, you are to follow me. That goes the same for your servants."
"They're my friends. Not servants.
"But to me, they are just SERVANTS."
We headed towards the throne room with only the PM and Mr. Kim with us.
