Severel weeks have past and altho jongin had told kyungsoo he wouldnt have to work anymore here. He noticed how he would still disappear to the chambers of the other slaves. Jongin had figured it might be because he had still friends there from his time and let him do so as long as he would always keep himself clean when he walked around in the castle.
Other times he would witness kyungsoo in the garden watching and touching the flowers in fascinations.
Other than that it seemed like kyungsoo was trying to avoid him and when he couldnt he would just sent glares and scoffs at him.
He was still sending out messages to his parents but it seemed like the gossip about how mannerless he had acted in front of guests had reached them sooner. They seemed furious and wrote him to only return once he learned his manners again and made it up to his uncle, who had only laughed at jongin for his failure forcing him to read all the paperwork his uncle would have to sign.
On this particular day jongin had decided he wanted to head out for a ride on his horse, it felt like it had taken him houres until he could convince his uncle to only let him take jongdae with him. He wanted to sneak into the village and the market and he knew any other guard would be too loyal to his uncle to keep it a secret.
And as he was walking through the hall ready to leave knowing that jongdae was already readying the horses by the gate, he heard a few mumbles of which he instandly recognized one of the voices.
His steps slowed down as he stopped by the corner listening into the conversation.
,, no ... nothing "
,, he saved your life afterall ... " it was a female voice that was talking to kyungsoo and it made jongin frown.
Last week they exchanged some of the maids.. did he know her ?
,, I do not feel thankful ... I want to get away but I feel like I can not "
A sigh fell and he heard their steps slow a little
,, kyungsoo, I didnt want to seem pushy but why do you hate him so much ?"
,, why do you not ?" He only asked back ,, his uncle has given out orders to burn down your village... you have suffered way more by them than I "
It was quiet for a little and jongin frowned when he didnt know about what he meant. He thought about moving away afraid they might appear any moment but before he could move kyungsoo spoke up again.
,, I.. I am sorry I did not mean-"
,, it's ok.. it's not like I can ever forget"she chuckled empty ,, the screams are always there.."
,, they are monsters "
Kyungsoo said and jongins eyes lowered. It was ironic how they both referred to each other as monsters.
,, not all of them... " the sound of a basket being moved again appeard and jongin paniced when the steps were now way too close.
He turned away looking for a place to hide when he spotted a door conveniently close by, which he rushed into not closing it fully as he peaked out of it.
,, you've never told me.. w-why- "
She suddenly stopped and jongin saw her move her hair behind her ear as it twitched.. she was an elf. He partnered his lips knowing they had incredible good hearing if they focused on it. He was going to be busted soon for sure.
But she didnt seem to notice yet as she poked his brace around the neck mockingly. He grunted annoyed driving her fingers away as he smiled weakly.
,, it is not important anyway "
Did she not know he was a siren?
