Jeno and Minah sat down on the garden's bench. The prince turned his head toward the princess and asked her to start.
- This is going to be kinda long. When I was three years old, our kindom got into a fight because a lot of people from Neoland was leaving for our kindom, the reason being the high tax and that a lot of people were getting poor. Your parents found out and got  furious, going to my parents to make them bring their people back. They refused, saying that they were better in Amethyst. That didn't ended well.
Minah looked at Jeno to see if he was focusing, and noticed that he was starting to get nervous. "I'm going to regret this". She sighed and continued:
- Your parents decided to declare war. I know this is a shitty reason to begin a war, but they wanted their people back. In the war, a lot of people from my side and yours died. In the end, my parents got killed and I was left alone. Neoland decided to be better and lowered the tax, also helping the ones who needed.
Jeno sighed. He didn't knew that his parents could do something like this. He didn't wanted to belive it.
-So, who is in charge now?
Minah looked around and sended him a small smile, she didn't wanted to make him feel worst that he apparently already was feeling.
- My aunt and uncle got in charge. They raised me and my cousin together, and they were and are amazing at it.
Jeno smiled a little. He didn't know what to belive. He had to ask his parents, but they could ask who told him that and punish the person or something, and the prince didn't want Minah to get hurt.
- I'm really sorry about this, i-i didn't know about this at all.
Minah felt her face soften. She wanted to be mad at him, but she couldn't. He was just so nice and cute that she didn't wanted to make him feel bad.
-It's okay, it wasn't your fault.
They stared at each other for a while, and they couldn't stop. It's like they were lost in eachother's eyes. A slow song was heard from the castle's event room. They imidiatly got up and walked to the exit of the garden. Jeno grabbed Minah's hand and turned her to him, making both of their hearts to beat faster.
- Um... I want to thank you for explaining the whole story. And maybe, you would like to have a dinner or something? You know, to get to know eachother more...
Minah though for a while. This can be the best or the word decision ever.
- How will we meet? We can't get in eachother's castle.
- I will sneak in yours and take you to the forest. I found a really nice place there in the other day, and now I have a reason to use it...
He chuckled. The princess smiled and  tightened her grip on his hand. She mutted a small okay and they parted ways like they never saw eachother before.

In the ball room, Yoongi waited impatiently for her cousin, and when he saw her, he walked up to her and whispered furiously:
-Where the fuck were you?!? The slow dance started five minutes ago!
- I'm sorry Yoongs, I was to occupied watching the flowers.
Minah didn't wanted to lie, but seeing her cousin anger at the Lee family, she couldn't tell him.
Yoongi sighed and nodded, taking her hand and leading her to a tall young prince with brown hair.

He looked very nice and cute. When they were face to face, the prince introduced himself.
-Hello! My name is Sanha and I will be your dance partner!!
Minah found him very cute. She smiled sweetly at him and introduced herself back. Before they started to dance, Yoongi whispered something to her about not showing too much emotion and now answering questions that were too personal. She nodded and headed off the dance with the cute prince.

Jeno, in other hand, wasn't too happy to dance with his partner. She was nice and all, but all he could focus on was Minah dancing with the prince happily.
He felt something he didn't knew what, and that bothered him. His partner noticed.

- Pardon?
- You look jealous. Are you guys dating or something? Maybe you like her....
-um.... no pftt of couse not. She is from an enemy kindom why would I like her...
Somi chuckled. It was obvious he liked her. They danced for a while, talking and laughing. Somi had to grab his attention from Minah for a few ( a lot of) times.

As the music stopped, all the princes and princesses came back to their places. The ball went in for a few more hours, Minah and Jeno only glancing at eachother secretly.
Finally the ball it's over. Yoongi and Minah were at the bottom of the stairs waiting for their carriage. The Lee family were at the top of the stairs talking to Somi's family. Jeno looked at Minah and smiled a little, only to sigh afterwards. " i have no idea how to sneak in her castle".
