"Say, Jisung, How about we hold a grand ball for your birthday?"
Jisung looked up from his book, stared at the man and looked down again,
"Not interested, Father."
Heaving a sigh, his father looked towards his wife, giving her a sign to say something,
"But darling, you are the prince and the future king of this kingdom, how can your birthday not be grand?"
Sighing, Jisung closed the book and stood up, dusting off the imaginary dust on his coat and stared at his parents dead in the eye,
"It isn't for my birthday. You want me to find a princess."
And he was out of the meeting room, leaving his parents with frustration evident on their faces.
Park Jisung, 20, the prince of Eadyth, and with his coronation approaching, his parents won't leave him alone.
"Princess, Princess, Princess!"
That is all he has been hearing for a while now. And very honestly speaking, he was not ready. Not now, at least.
Also, his soulmate was still out there, somewhere. Yes, a person who was connected to his soul existed out there and his parents wanted him to marry a bratty, good-for-nothing princes.
He was so young, he had so many places to visit and so many things to do. He wanted to do all this with his soulmate.
Heaving a sigh, he looked up as he heard a few whispers. The maids, as usual, weren't as subtle as they thought they were. They were all older than him though so in the nicest way possible, he said,
"I believe we still have some things left to do, so you shall be on your way and I shall be on mine. Without these whispers following me. Have a nice day, all of you."
Smiling a tight-lipped smile, he sped up and left the hallway.
Arriving at the stable, he went inside to greet his only friend, a pure white mare, Hebe.
She was truly worthy of her name, beautiful and youthful. She has never lost a race and she is very competitive. Playful too.
Smiling, he caressed her mane,
"My pretty Hebe, how about a ride?"
The white mare neighed and Jisung grinned. Dropping the book (Very careless, your highness), he got on top of the white beauty and spurred her forward with his heel.
He grinned again as he felt the wind grazing his hair. He was slow while exiting the castle but as soon as the castle was out of sight, he kicked his mare's side again to make her speed up.
His destination was the village. The colorful village of Eadyth. Where there was so much greenery, it would make your insides melt, the bustling of people will make you excited, and the breeze will make you feel like you want to dance.
The voices of the shop owners selling their products were audible from afar. He slowed down again as to not hurt the people.
The people whipped their heads to look at the incoming presence, immediately bowing down as they realize that he's the crown prince of their kingdom.
He smiled at all of them. The sudden change in his mood would be scary.
He giggled as a kid tried to jump up to touch him but could only hit his leg. He pulled reins a little to stop Hebe, looking at the kid, he smiled,
"Want to ride it with me?"
The kid giggled and clapped his hands in excitement while jumping up and down.
He dismounted the horse and bowed back to the kid's mother,
" Your highness, I deeply apologize for my son's behavior! Forgive me for this rudeness! I apologize-"
The woman kept bowing down hastily, without giving Jisung a chance to speak, so he just picked up the kid and made him sit on the saddle on his horse, making sure that he's sitting securely.
Turning around to the mother that's staring at him with wide eyes, he smiled,
"It's perfectly fine, miss. I'll bring him back after a tour of this place. Should I drop him back here?"
The woman wordlessly nodded at the prince with her mouth agape.
Jisung immediately mounted the horse and kicked it slightly again.
He grinned widely as the boy sitting in front of him giggled again.
He made small conversation with the boy while they were riding,
"What's your name?"
The kid smiled widely at him and said,
"It's Min, your highness!"
The Prince giggled at how cheeky the boy spoke,
"Hmm, Min? Min is a nice name. You know, I'm only a few years older than you, why not call me, 'Hyung'?"
Min clapped again but then slowed down, looking up at the Prince with a pout,
"But isn't that rude your highness?"
Jisung pouted too,
"Oh but, I don't have a younger brother, so no one calls me 'Hyung', I thought you would but it's okay if you don't want to."
Jisung pouted even more, and then he felt a palm on his cheek,
"Oh-oh, Don't cry, I'll call you, 'Hyung', ok hyung?"
Jisung smiled a little at how his trick worked and then nodded at Min happily.
They continue exploring the market, the kid giggling loudly at everything he sees. The prince laughed along with him.
The people present there bowed whenever they saw the prince and he smiled back widely at them.
They gaped at his behavior, cause they had never seen him smile so widely. He treated everyone nicely usually too! But today, he was a different kind of happy.
He immediately pulled the reins when the kid in front of him shouted,
"Chenle-hyung!"
He looked up after calming his horse down
And
He saw an angel.
