Who is she?

"She's here? I thought I told that wrench not to step foot back here!" The king shouted at the messengers.
"Yes your highness she is waiting outside." They say.

"Send her in." He yelled.
The girl walked forward , bowed and sat down.

"Why do you show your face here again?!" He yelled.

"I have come to ask for my position back."

"Position? Of what? Seducing my son!" He yelled scoffing.

"It was a mere misunderstanding, I have a husband now I am not the same woman as before." She explained locking eyes.

"Did you come to make a fool of me?"

"No your highness , I know my past sins and mistakes I want to prove you can trust me." She says pleading.

"If you want to prove yourself that badly, go work in the historian officer as a cleaner! I want you no where near my sons!" He yelled.

She nodded before standing.

"Show her the office, get her started now and if she steps anywhere near my son kick her out!" He yelled sending them off.

"Your highness you have grown in kindness." A councilmen speaks.

"It is only the rule." He sternly replies.

"What should I do?!" Ji sung yells.

Lena was still sleeping and he slept past the time he was suppose to wake up.

He slowly walks over to the room tapping on the door.
"Lena, please don't panic but you're late." He says.
Her eyes shoot open and she yelled.

"I'm late?! You! You didn't wake me!" She blames as she grabbed her cloth from outside the door tying it.
She runs out the door and falls into the dirt on the way.
"Rushing out of his house so fast?" Seungmin asks.

"It was nothing." I bow rushing back off to the kitchen.

Seungmin smirks before going back to his vicinity.

"We already delivered all of the food."

"Ah sorry, it won't happen again." I bow before leaving.

"I can't talk to you." I see a lady rush off with her fecr covered and Minho.
Minho? Lady?
Is it ? No no she was exiled out.. no way.
She has the face cover same as me.. why..

I shake my thoughts and head off to assist  jeongin.

"It must be irritating to cover your face all day." He says.
"It is a order so I have no choice."
"I've heard you've become fond of Ji Sung, have you shown him?" He asks.
"No and we are not fond." I rebuttal.

"I think everyone knows, to be honest it makes me jealous too, many want to know you but it seems your mind is made on Ji Sung." He closes his book.
"If I remove this what would you do?" He says pointing to my face mask.

"Please stop, this is not a kidding situation it's a king order ." I ask nicely.

"Who would know?" He says shrugging.
"Please no."

"Why? Is there a special person you wish to show first? Ji sung maybe? Or Felix? Or maybe your fate is same as minho's lost lost." He chuckled.

I shake my head in disagreement.
"No your majesty, perhaps for only a husband." His laughs stop.

"Well then we will never see it." He says sighing.

"What's that suppose to-"
"You're done for now, go help Chan I'll tell father." He sends me off.

"What are my tasks?" I ask again.

" stack my papers , arrange them, change the water flasks, take the tray for the kitchen, then sweep these floors." He says.

All that? In a one hour period.

"Yes your highness." I bow and begin with the first.
I stacked all my papers in a neat pile after arranging.
He was observing me from across the room.

"You must be use to arranging." He mentioned.

"Back at my house I arranged things everyday."

"Oh? I see. It's a good quality." He nods.

"The king really forbidden revealing your face?" He asks.

"Yes he said it's against a rule." I answered while sweeping.

"That's new, I wonder what's gotten in his head these days." He sighs.

"If anyone gives you trouble tell me and oh stay away from Minho he's no good same as Seungmin." He warmed me. I nodded.

"Has Minho already left his rude mark?" He asked.
"More than that." I replied and he laughed.

"That guy, his past sure is a cause but not a reason." He walked over to me.

"If he tried anything, I'm sure you know any of us would help. We all know how cruel he can be."

"I appreciate it." I say smiling with my eyes.

He smiled back and went to sit again.

"Lena" I heard a whisper but saw no one.
Maybe my ears are playing tricks..
"Lena." Again I heard it louder.
I spun around looking to see nothing.

Due to my lack of looking, I bumped into Hyunjin making me fall down.

"Watch where you're going next time, why're you out so late? " He asks me looking around.

"I was heading home from Chan." I bow.

"This late? I see. Go home quickly don't be late again." He warned before walking off.

I decided to stay in the storage tonight, I'm sure Ji Sung would come looking so I made sure to tell him before I did.

He seems disappointed which didn't shock me.

A sudden knock came and I opened in confusion.

"Come with me." Hyunjin motioned.

The weird feeling returned.

"What are you doing?" I hear Ji sungs voice ring.

"This doesn't concern you.." Hyunjin says grabbing my arm.
"Yah! Let go!" Ji sung says stepping forward.

"Why? Buzz off seriously tch" He scoffed dragging my arm.
"Stop!" Ji Sung said grabbing his arm.

"Look do you want me to tell him or do you want us to talk about this?" Hyunjin says looking at me and back to Ji Sung.
Ji sung let's go and looks confused before stepping back.

"Talk about what? I don't -" I was interrupted by Ji sung
"It's okay, really, I'll go." Ji sung says dragging his feet going back gloomily.

I fling my arm away.
"What are you doing?!" I whisper yelled.

"You know it." He says eyeing me.

"What?!"

"He pulled out a necklace same as mine."

My eyes widened , I felt tears starting to form. I felt in shock as my body registered what I'm seeing.

"This.. you are her." He says staring.

"Say something." He says but I'm frozen.

"Should I tell everyon-
"No! " I yell.

I close my door and lay down.

I can't believe it no I can't. He isn't no he's not.
It can't be him, why now why ?!
I clench my fists. Why did this happen now?
