Women know what it is to endure.
I have to be a woman and endure.

Jisoo remembers reading those words from a notebook she found in her father's study. The King walked into the room to find the young princess seated on the bay window with the notebook in her lap. For a second she thought she'd get in trouble for going through his things but instead he greeted with only a warm smile.

The youthful Princess read the words of this unknown writer, unknowingly hanging onto every word.

A soft sigh fell past Jisoo's lips. The sun was out and felt divine against her pale skin. She had lost track of how long she'd been out of here not really caring because she knew no one was looking for her.

"I don't think I've had the pleasure of introducing myself Princess."

Gazing up she found a man standing before her with a friendly smile on his plump lips. Dressed in royal silks nonetheless.

"Jimin of House Olympian."

In curiosity, she watches him bow before her gracefully. "Hello."

"Mind if I join you?" He asks pointing towards the empty seat that sat opposite of her.

The Princess only shakes her head taking the few seconds to observe the new face. Well not entirely new, she could remember the exact man standing next to The Prince when she arrived in Olympia.

"I'm one of Taehyung's closest friends if not the only one." Jimin states. "Now that I think of it, he doesn't have too many friends. That might be because he's probably the most difficult man to roam this earth."

Jisoo hums swiftly. Finding the man's rambling amusing. "What kind of friend says that about another?"

"The best kind of friend. Honesty is the best policy."

"Is that so?"

"Absolutely," he nods. "Don't you think so?"

"Of course." Jisoo agrees. "I also can't lie and say I haven't told a white lie or two in my time."

Jimin smiles like really smiles. In her few days in the Olympian Kingdom, Jimin had kept his eyes on her, from afar of course. She was a quiet woman. Aware of all judgement she received but keeping her leave always along with a kind smile. She was fascinated by the gardens, she'd spend hours out there simply staring at the flowers. Surprisingly she and Princess Jennie were very friendly to one another.

If she was up to anything, Jimin will be the first one to find out. For his friend's sake of course.

"I suppose I do the same. Anyways, how are you and my friend?"
