day 20/30


"You're still sleepy?"


I looked at Mina after yawning then I nodded at her. What happened last night really makes me happy until now that I couldn't even sleep last night.





"Let me take you to your room."


"No need. Someone might see us," I stopped her. She didn't answer but she walked outside already. She's really a hard headed girl. Very stubborn. I followed her outside when I already fixed my hanbok. When I went outside I saw a unfamiliar man behind the pillar of the castle. I felt goosebumps immediately. I know it's looking at me. I roam around to look for Jisoo but she's not here already, then I looked back at the pillar and saw nothing anymore.


I know it's the one who killed Jimin. His black ninja suit makes me remember his eyes. That eyes. It's very familiar but I can't tell who it is. Fuck this mind.


"Hey. What are you looking at?" Jisoo suddenly appeared in front of me.


"I..I saw someone behind that pillar." I pointed her the pillar. She immediately walked towards it so she can check if there's a person behind the pillar. But... she saw nothing. She walked back towards me again.


"There's nothing.." she said.


"I swear there's someone.." I sighed.


She holds my hand tightly, "It's okay. I'll check around later. Come on, you should rest now." I nodded my head and we walked back to our room again.


She kissed my forehead before I can finally slid the door closed. I slowly checked if someone is awake but there's no one. So I lay down beside Mina. But I couldn't sleep. I'm happy because of Jisoo. But... that guy behind the pillar makes me scared. His presence is really scary, I know to myself that I know him. But.. I couldn't tell who is it. Ugh, I hate my mind sometimes.





"You already know how to cook the soup." Mina smile widely as she watches me cook the princess's soup. "And I think it's tastier than mine, can I try it?" she asked. I nodded and handed a soup to her. "Mhmmm!" She smiles widely and gave me thumbs up. "Delicious!" I chuckled from her behavior.


I turned around to grab some other ingredients but then I saw the King watching me. She gave me a smile as she trains the teenagers at the field. I smiled back and cooked again.


"General Chin Hwa is walking towards us!" I heard Jihyo slightly yelled at us. We immediately fixed everything because he might checked us again. I make sure I turned off the fire before lining with the other servants. When he arrived he looked at us one by one but he stopped when he saw me.


He grins and walked towards me. He leaned his back so that he can move his head closer to mine.


"Did you enjoyed last night?" he whispered to me while smiling like an evil man. Is he the one hiding behind the pillar last night? Is he the responsible for Jisoo's death?


"I-I don't know what you're talking about General..." I slightly bowed and looked away. His presence makes me scared already. He stands up straight and pulled me closer to him. I tried removing hand around my shoulders but he still pushed himself to me. I am now disgusted to him. What is he doing??


"Stay still dear." She tried hugging me but I am trying my best to push him. I tried looking for the King but she is just watching us. He clenched his jaw as if he wants to kill Chin Hwa right now. "Why are you pushing me away? You like sleeping with the King and with General Manoban right?"
