"what are you writing there?"

Mina lift her head and see her father is awake, King Myoui chuckles when he saw her surprised face.

"Did you pretend to sleep? how long have you been awake" Mina asked.

He chuckles again, "don't change the topic"

"Umm, it's n-nothing.."

"don't lie, I never see you smile like that"

"it's really nothing, father" Mina scratches her nape.

"Then let me take a look of your notes"

Mina slightly frown her brows, "I just.., i just writing about my friend"

"Friend? you mean princess Chaeyoung?"

"how do you know?" Mina's eyes widened.

"you only have one friend tho, Hahah" He chuckled again.

"aah, yeah you're right, father" Mina scratches her nape again.

"You like her?" He smiled while asking.

"eh? No..." Mina eyes focus runs away.

"you're so bad at lying, Minari, ㅋㅋㅋ"

"umm, stop it, father" "it's embarrassing and please don't misunderstand, it's not like what you are thinking, father,"

Mina looked down to her notes, trying to hide her face and mumbles, "it's impossible for us t to be together"

"i will give you both my blessing"

Mina startled, "what...? we are just friends..."

"love is love, don't overthink about what everyone thinks about you, if you keep thinking that way, you'll never be happy"

"you know me so well..." she muttered.

He smiles and slightly coughs while covering his mouth with a handkerchief.

"you trained all day?" Mina asked when she could smell the sweat from her brother.

"yeah," Dubu nods.

"since when you are this diligent?" She asked teasingly.

"Tss, Mina don't underestimate your brother, he has changed," said King Myoui.

"ㅋㅋㅋ," Dubu stick his tongue out to tease her.

Mina gives a glare and smiled, "anyway, thank you for helping me that day"

"that's what brother should do, no need to thank me"

(King Myoui chuckles)
