Soondeok's diary

A week's passed and I still can't remember anything new from the past. Will they ever come back? Will I ever remember? I want to remember, I really want to become that Soondeok that my husband has fallen in love with, but it's impossible, no matter how hard I try, no matter what I do, I'm still a different person to him. Mother told me that the doctor said my new medication will help me remember, but I've been taking them for a while now and still no effect. Should I tell mother about this?

Father will have a break soon, a week later at the earliest, will I be able to remember everything before I meet him? He's my father, he'd know from the first moment he sees me, and I don't want him to worry about me.

Anyway, I should try to keep my mind off this for now, at least for tonight – the prince and I will have an evening date. I'm not sure how it'll go, I'm a bit scared actually. I know we've been hanging out quite often lately, but somehow officially calling it a date seems to make things a bit different. I don't want to disappoint him.

Eun's diary

I have no idea what's wrong with mother these days! I'm not sick, then why's she making me take the different tonics from the herbal shop? It's good for your body, she says, you'll thank me when you reach my age, she says, I wish I'd started taking care of my body when I was your age, she says.

I wouldn't complain if they tasted nice, but no, they tasted nasty! So bitter, I've never tasted anything so bitter in my life! Then mother would be all fussy and say bitter medicine is the best for your health. Gosh! And you know what's the worse part of it all? Every night my body will feel super hot, I'd sweat like mad and my urge will grow – it's driving me crazy! I'd toss and turn in my bed for a long long time before I could finally fall asleep, and you know what's the worse part of it? The worse part is having Soondeok sleep next to me, she's right there, sleeping, defenseless – and sometimes her top will loosen and gosh it's just a torture for me! I was so close to losing it last night, I told mother but all she said was that it's the medicine at work, pushing all the bad heat inside my body out. Darn it, why does summer have to be so long and hot and sweaty? I hate sweating! Maybe I should just sleep on the floor tonight!

(Eun finding Soondeok, their carriage will arrive soon to take them to the restaurant but she's nowhere to be found)

'Soondeok ah!!!! Deok ah, where are you??? Gosh, she was just there a moment ago! Deok ah!!! Honey!!!! Where are you?? We need to get ready now! The carriage will be here any minute!'

(At last, Eun finds her in a lonely corner of the garden, squatting down in tears. She's been crying.)

'Deok ah!'

(Soondeok quickly wipes her face dry and smiles)

'Your...your highness. I...I'm sorry, let's go now.'

(Soondeok stands up and goes as she says)

'Whoa, hold on a second.'

'I'm fine, really your highness. Let's go.'

(Eun stops her and makes Soondeok look at him)

'No honey, we're not going anywhere until you tell me what went wrong. Darling, what's wrong? Why were you crying, hm? Who made my little dove cry? Who made my baby cry, hm?'

(Eun gives Soondeok a handkerchief)

'I...'

'Did someone say something mean to you? I'll break their bones for you. See my muscles, I've been working on them-'
