"I put the ship on stand by , LuHan"

Xiumin informs the first thing when LuHan comes out the room yawning.

"Oh, good work Umin. How long do we have already ?" He asks.

"The ship will leave in 44 hours, approximately"

"Thanks" Luhan pats on his back before he turns to leave.

*****

I don't think this is going to work out today." Kris comes running to Jaehee and informs.

"Eh ?"

"None of the trainees are sleeping, it seems" Kris whispers in her ear making her cracking into a smile.

"So what can we do ?"

"How about a sauna ?" He whispers back on her ear.

"Of course" She laughs and they both start to walk out the building. Kris puts his black mask and the black cap on as he walks through the back door to the storage, then to outside.

"Omo" Jaehee jumps back when she sees his face through the mask.

"Aren't you.." She points at his face and turns her head as if to see him in a better angle."..the guy who saved me, from the thugs"

Kris smiles to the mask as the adorable girl in front of him. One hand in her pocket and one hand pointing at him, her hair band had just let go of her hair letting it fall by the wind. 

"Yes I was, Princess" He smiles.

"Just how many times have you saved me really ?" She asks , pouting.

"Only this once." He replies, as in his mind he never told saving her from the fire as actually saving her. 

They slowly walk through the streets when Jaehee breaks the silence.

"You don't call me 'your highness' "

"Hm ?"

"You are not a guard, are you ?"

"Me ?"

"Hm, you"

"Ah , I am the second prince. Next to the throne after LuHan" 

"Omo, jinjja ? Daebak"

Her eyes widen and Kris smiles to how surprised she was to hear.

"So does everyone in the planet has these what you call 'an ability'?" 


"Yup. Not just one, many. But you always chose one to master, so you are trained to master that one ability you chose. Some do more than one, it's just like doing more than one bachelor's in here."

"So I chose visiting dreams ?"


"Yup, you had"


"And you ?"

"Flight. I can fly"


"Right ? You did, I could witness it twice. And now that I think of it, I can remember both times."


"We are here, I will pay and get the clothes"

"Aneeyo, I will. You just be here with the mask and the cap" She jokes.

"That one" Kris picks the most beautiful girl sleeping soundly with her head on the sauna pillow on the cold floor.

"Because ...???" 

"She is pretty" ...."Duh ?? Just sit here. And focus" Kris says as he sits her down leaning over to the wall making sure she was comfortable.

Jaehee focuses harder on her face and eyes rather her dreams, trying to go into her thoughts. This time she gets it faster , only after one or two flashes disturbing her,  she is able to quickly grasp the girls dream.

"I do " She hears a man's voice before finding herself sitting in the middle of a white veil occasion, inside of a church.

"Han MinAhssi, do you take Shin YoonJae to be your husband, to have and to hold, for better or worse, for poorer or richer, in sickness and health to love and to cherish, till death do you part. ?"

"I do" The bride replies. Her long veil was over her head and through that Jaehee sees a beautiful girl with her long hair at her back, with tiny flowers here and there on her hair.

"You may kiss the bride" The crowd cheers up by the announcement and the bride let go of the veil as the groom holds her dearly to himself in a deep kiss. Jaehee feels a terrible punch of pain inside her heart as she sits there stoned to the view.

"NO" She tells herself when she remembers the pain she felt while looking at that figure of her lawfully wedded husband, on her wedding day.

"No"

She opens her eyes to the worried face of Kris.

"You did really well, didn't even faint today. Was it a sad dream ? You cried. I am sorry" Jaehee feels the need to ask him , but holds it to herself.

"Are you okay ?" He asks when there was no response from the confused princess.

She nods before forcing a smile.
