[at General Mina chamber]

Mina let her body freefall on the bed, all of her energy drained, till she un-deliberately falls asleep with that attire. Now she is in the dream universe, happily running on the rice field with her soulmate, Chaeyoung. They hold each other's hand and lie down on the field, enjoying the peaceful scenery of the blue sky.


Chae pulls her closer and wraps Mina in her embrace, she showed her gummy smile and chuckles while facing each other in that close distance, yet changed to a poker face and stopped chuckling when their eyes locked. Chae smiled widely, leans forward and pulls Mina's chin with her hand. Mina closes her eyes.

"princess, It's time for your dinner" Nayeon voice was heard from outside and it woke Mina from her dream. Nayeon is the only one who still calls her princess instead of general.

Ahh, Whyyyyy, just a little bit moreeeeee

"Yeah, come in," said Mina, getting up from her bed.

[next morning]

Mina still goes to her garden every day when there is no call, even though it's kinda a little bit weird for a General to do gardening, but everyone knows she loves it.

Not only to the servants and guards but now she also shares the fruits with her fellow troops when it's the harvest season.

"Wuaa, flower!" Mina smiled by herself, touching the flower of the strawberry plant.

It's been a long time since I ate the strawberry, ㅋㅋㅋ already missing the weird sweet sour flavour, it's your weird favourite, Chaeyoung. Why you haven't sent me a letter yet? It has been a month since then.

I miss you, Chae.

[at Mina's chamber]

Taking her time, Mina tidy up her chamber with Nayeon, since she didn't let the servants enter, so no one is able to clean her chamber. Papers are stacked to a pile, a bunch of bamboo scroll is stored in the cabinet.

What scroll is this?

Mina untie a scroll that she never read before, there are two rolls of paper, the small one is her favourite, the one with a little strawberry drawing on it.

Since when the scroll is in my possession? She must have been waiting for too long... Why are there two scrolls?


Mina opens the other scroll and awed to see a various drawing of penguin.

Nayeon saw the funny smile and chuckles, "Let me guess, princess Chaeyoung?"

"Mmm" She nods as a yes.

"Come to think about it, i gave it to you around, hmm, a month ago? You should reply to her soon, princess, Hahah, anyway why she didn't come to visit you?" Nayeon asked out of curiosity.

"I'm not sure, Hehe" Mina take a brush to write a reply.

Tying the scroll back and smiling again while giving it to Nayeon, "tomorrow, give it to the messenger, goodnight"

"algessumnida, have a good rest, princess" Nayeon take it and excuses herself.
