You wondered where the exit to the greenhouse was because it never seemed to end as you walked past different plants and bushes. Having no one to guide you really, you had no choice but to continue following the trail of diamond shards. They were getting much harder to follow because now you were in a part of the royal greenhouse where the grass seemed to grow from the ground, almost hiding the shiny shards and covering up the path.

You stop walking when the diamonds lead you to a tree there in the garden. Sitting in the tree reading a book, was a coral hair colored man. Perhaps another prince? He was dressed as one from his stainless white dress shirt to the dangling diamond earring in his left ear.

He didn't seem to notice your presence there as he sat quietly in the tree, flipping through a book, swinging his legs slowly, sun shining through the royal greenhouse windows in the ceiling letting the sun almost create a golden aura behind him.

You smiled at how peaceful he looked and you didn't want to disturb his book reading as he seemed completely enthralled by whatever he was reading. He stopped reading and turned his head, meeting your gaze with his. You thought his side profile was beautiful, his front was just as beautiful as well.

He smiled at you and gave you a small bow, "Hey, Princess."

It was the dress wasn't it? It must've made him think you were a princess. You thought to yourself.

"O-oh, I'm sorry, I disturbed your reading..." You said feeling awkward.

"Oh, not at all." He reassured.

"Who are you?" You asked him.

He chuckled, "You forgot already? No matter, I'm Prince Jin Jin."

You wondered why he thought you forgot his name already if this was your first time meeting him, you remembered when you met Prince Sanha that he was like that as well. Did you come here before? You decide to let it slide for now as it wasn't important to you at the moment.

"If I may ask, your highness, why are you up in that tree?"

"The sunlight from up here is perfect to see the pages in. Would you like to see what I'm reading?"

You smile and nod, taking up his kind offer, willing to fill up your curiosity. You grab the corners of your gown and walk through the grass to approach the tree from where he sat.

"Coming down! Watch out!" He warned and carefully slid down from his seat at the top and landed next to you on his feet.

He was shorter than Prince Sanha which surprised you as he seemed tall from the tree, then again perspective from that tree was everything. With the book in the prince's hand he smiled at you then proceeded to open the white hardcover book.

You expected pages with many words on every page but in fact each page was empty. You turned and looked at him in confusion and he chuckled at your confusion.

"Where are the-" You start but he cuts you off, "Words? Sentences? Paragraphs? Of course you'd ask that." He said.

"I-i don't quite understand...why are they blank?"

"Princess, life is an open book of blank pages, you write the story as you go. These few pages are blank because I yet have a story to put in them, but these pages however, are full of stories." the prince explains to you as he flipped past the blank pages to the pages where there were words and pictures.
