I directly went to Mari's quarters upon learning about her condition. She hasn't eaten in days and refused going out of her room. A servant found her unconscious on her bedroom floor this afternoon and they quickly summoned the palace doctor to check her out.

Dehydration and lack of sleep. Plus  she wasn't eating.

When I arrived in her room, a nurse was fixing a tube connected to her dextrose. She was in deep slumber yet changes in her appearance can be easily noted. The nurse bowed to me a and silently left after finishing what she was doing.

I sat on a chair stationed beside her bed and instantly felt guilty as the reality of my negligence consumed me. She might have felt like she wasn't wanted anymore... something I didn't want Charlie to exactly feel. I held her hand and she opened her eyes. Tears instantly welled up as she came to realize who was sitting beside her. Despite her struggle, she rose and quickly embraced me.

"Mari..."

"I thought you already abandoned me..."

I sighed and caressed her back. I felt the drastic change her loneliness caused her body. Sadness can indeed turn you in such a state in just a matter of days, she was quite thin.

"Mari, why are you doing this yourself?..."

She snuggled so closely and possessively while crying.

"I waited for you...but you never came. What happened to you? To us?..."

"Mari..."

"I- I know I'm just your mistress but we  both know I'm more than that...you told me so...I will never forget..."

This is painful to see and hear.

And I hate myself.

It's true...before Charlie,

There was Mari...

But Mari's position was clear to me from the very start. It's just that maybe she was the one I  really got along with pretty well. We've got so many special memories that I never  even once shared with the rest of my mistresses.

Mari before all of this has happened was my confidante, my friend and my lover.

Not just a mistress.

Until the one Charlie came along.

No one saw it coming.

Not even me.

I was only bored. I thought another one would somehow entertain and distract me from seriously falling in love with Mari.

And so my prayers are heard...

Yet I'm still in vain.

"D-don't leave me... stay here please."

I caressed her hair;

"Don't worry, I'll be right here..."

In less than 48 hrs of sneaking out from the palace, the Russian prince was summoned back with an escort. The black and silver Russian Boeing which Namjoon had joked about last night finally landed in Korea. Not just one but 3 of them. Not exactly the luxurious royal family Airbus but the prince's private jet escorted by two Soviet war jets. Kookie never actually told us how he got here. But the royal Russian family felt relieved to find their son still in one piece.
