I sighed again and leaned back against the wall, looking out of the window where the sun yet again started to sink down.

I felt the bed moving and before I knew it, he had crawled into my lap, hugging me close and I couldnt help myself.
I linked my hands between his back and i felt his hand cupping my face so I'd look at him.

"Tell me", he said softly and I opened my mouth but i didnt know where to start.
But i knew that he deserve to know the truth.

"T-this might sound very fucked up to you and I need you to promise me to not freak out because after I finish telling you this, I will still be the same person that I have been since you arrived here at the castle.", i started and he looked a little confused but he just carressed my cheek, symbolizing me to continue.

"I-"

I couldnt do it.
I just chugged on my own words and somehow my eyes got teary which I didnt really understand.

"You're not haneul, are you?", he asked softly and I slowly shook my head.
How did he know?
Was it that remarkable?
I couldn't help the tear slipping out because I was scared to loose him, scared of him to completely freak out.

"Your name is Jeongguk right?", he said and he smiled as he caught the tear with his thumb.

"How did you-"

"Overheard you and the actual haneul talking on the phone yesterday night.", he said and to my biggest surprise he stayed calm, "Figured a lot of things out and to be honest it makes a lot of sense. Even tho I don't know how this all happened and why you are here instead of him."
