Till We Meet Again

Chapter 39

"Jen was alone outside of her school. She needs to be pick up, yes.. yes.. Jennie's friend.. Yes. Thank you."

"Who are you speaking with?" I asked Jeongyeon, my sister when I heard her talking to someone.

"J-Just myself. I was practicing some lines for the play later." She answered. I wonder what's play is it? I nodded my head and just fixed myself.

"I am going to the war later. Jug-Eum will attack soon. And we will be ready for that," I told her and sips on my coffee.

"I will tell the princess and I will guide the servants. Good luck," my sister kissed my cheek before walking outside of our small house. I watched her walked away. I can't wait to win again against Jug-Eum.

"General, they retreated!" Manoban exclaimed with a happy face and hugged me so tight.

"We've done it again," I pat her back softly. Then I turned around and saw Namjoon not really far away from us. He is scolding some servant again, and Jeongyeon was also there. But that servant is really new to me, I haven't seen her here the Kingdom, is she a new servant?

Look at that chubby cheeks... she looks like a poor mandu.

"Hey, come on now. Don't just stand there," Manoban hit me with her elbow and chuckled.

"Yeah. Let's go," I smiled and followed her.

When we arrived at our home, Manoban was cooking while I was fixing my suit. We will going to the Kingdom again. It's time for the Princess to choose who will be the new King. It's not suitable for me and it's very awkward since Manoban and the Princess have a relationship for a very long time, but I am glad that it is okay for Manoban.

"Hey dinner is served." I heard her voice. I quickly walked towards the dining area to eat with her. We're not that rich but we're not also poor. We are warriors from YG, we already celebrated our win before going home after the war. Jug-Eum's warriors retreated and that's the most beautiful thing that they have done. Even though the Princess gave us so many foods after the war, we are still hungry. We didn't ate since the first day of the war. And now is the third day. Imagine how hungry we are.

"Are you ready for tomorrow?" she asked me and drinks her glass of water

"I guess. I will just do my best to win the challenge." I shrugged. "It's fine with you, right? I will just be a King, not her lover." I assured her

"I'll accept whatever will happened Jisoo. I love Rosé, I already imagined myself being with her." she smiled painfully, "But.. how can I win against the law right?" she sighed "So it's fine with me. As long as the Kingdom will be okay and successful."

And that's what I love about Manoban. She is not selfish and she puts us first before anyone else. She is really a definition of a true friend.

"I promise I won't betray you." I smiled at her

"When are you getting a woman then?" She gave me a teasingly look.

"I don't need woman." I frowned. "I love myself, you, Gabriella and Jeongyeon. You guys are my family."

"Who's Gabriella?" Oh shoot. I forgot, she doesn't know about Jimin and Jeongyeon's relationship. And their baby. I bit my lower lip and closed my eyes because of what I did.

"Uh... I said, Gorilla.. you look like a Gorilla. Hahaha!" I tried my best to fake my laugh.

"Whatever, but I'm telling you don't decide so fast Jisoo," Manoban chuckled
