King's (Jihyo and Sana's father) POV
I heard a knock on my office door.
"Come in" I said.
"Your Grace" Jackson, my trusted messenger greeted and bowed. I gestured for the servants to come out of the room.
"Did you find anything?" I asked.
"Yes Your Grace, I will ask the witnesses to come here so they can tell you the whole story" he said. He bowed then left.
He came back after a few minutes with 2 servants from another kingdom with him.
"Tell our king what you saw and heard" he commanded the servants.
The servants told me stories that I wanted to know. I got shocked with what I found out.
When they finished with their stories, I asked everyone except Jackson to leave.
"Jackson, make sure to write everything. I want them to be ready for tomorrow" I commanded. Jackson nodded and bowed.
"You are dismissed" I said. Jackson left the room.
**Flashback a week after Sana was sent to the human world**
I waited patiently for the girl to come out. I disguised myself as an old man.
When the girl came out of the house, I walked towards her and pretended that I fainted.
The girl noticed me and ran towards me. She immediately called a cab and sent me to the hospital.
I was sent to the hospital and treated. I pretended that I just woke up and the girl was still with me, her face looks so worried even though she does not know who I was.
"Miss?" I called that caught her attention.
"Oh my, sir you're awake. How are you?" she asked.
"I'm fine, did you bring me here?" I asked even though I know what the answer was.
"Yes sir" she answered cheerfully. "I'm glad you are okay now. The doctor said you fainted because of exhaustion and hungriness. I bought you some food, please eat up" she said. I looked at her face, her face and nose looks like mine but the rest is from her mother. Her smile looks like her mother. When she was born, her smile was the first thing that I noticed. It touches your heart and can make your day better. "Why did I hate my own daughter? When did I start neglecting her? What did I do to my own daughter?" I asked myself.
"Uhm s-sir? Is there something wrong?" she asked. I started crying, she immediately handed me a napkin. She patted my back to comfort me.
Once my cries subsided she handed me the food she bought. "Sir please eat so you can gain your energy" she said while giving me a genuine smile. "My daughter is so pure and genuine towards people. I can't explain why I hated her?" I thought to myself.
"By the way sir, my name is Sana" she said while still smiling then we heard a knock on the door.
"Appa, where did you go? I told you not to exhaust yourself" it was Jackson who disguised as a kid.
"I'm sorry kid I need to get food for us" I said. Sana's face saddened then her phone rang. I think it was her girlfriend. Ah yes my daughter found love again in the human world, something she can't find in our world. I saw her smiled and giggled. I haven't seen her giggle since the day we broke her, she always does that whenever she gives me and her mother something even though we push her away.
"Uhm s-sir sorry I need to go, my girlfriend is looking for me. Don't worry about the bill it has been settled and please take this" she handed me a small envelope. "Please take care of yourself and you too little boy" she said then bowed.
I sighed when she exited the room. "Let's go back to our kingdom, Jackson" we transformed again to our original self then went back to our kingdom.
**End of flashback**
My tears started to fall. I never cried this hard ever.
"What did I do?!" I asked myself. "My baby, my princess, don't worry I will make this right" I said.

Momo' POV
I was sent to their palace's prison cell. It was so dark and the silence creeps the hell out of me.
Suddenly someone walked towards my cell and talked to the guard. The guard bowed then left. The person who was wearing a black robe opened my cell.
"Stand up, we need to leave" she said. "Oh my GodJihyo am I going to be killed secretly?" I thought.
"Ww-who are - y-you? What do you want from me? Where is Sana? Did you do something to her?" I asked.
"Shut up, if you want to stay alive don't ask questions and just follow my lead" she said.
"N-no bring me back my Sana!" I shouted. I then felt a fang on the back of my neck. A tear fall from my eyes when suddenly all went black.

Queen's POV
I walked to Sana's bedroom door. I saw guards standing outside. When they noticed me, they bowed.
"Can you please leave us" I commanded.
"B-but my queen" one of the guards said.
"She's my daughter, nothing will happen" I said as they bowed again then left.
I entered the room then saw Sana looking at the window. She's feeding the birds while talking to them.
"I wish I am a bird" she said sadly.
I walked towards her then she noticed me.
"Y-your Highness" she said then bowed.
"Sit Sana" I said. I sat across her.
Her face is so sad and her eyes are puffy due to so much crying. I suddenly cupped her face. She looked at me then closed her eyes. Tears started to fall from her eyes, she cries silently.
"My baby" I said which made her cry even more and louder this time. I hugged her and cried with her.
"M-mother, it h-hurts" she said. I cried even more. "I feel like dying, please I want to be with Momo" she added between sobs.
"Shhh my princess" I comforted her.
"Please let her live. If I cant be with her just send her back to the human world and make her forget about me. I don't want her to be sad" she added.
"I will take all the pain mother, I will take all the punishment just please let her go" she cried.
"Oh my baby" all I could say. She cried harder and did not speak anymore.
"Mother, I love you and father and Jihyo. Please take care of yourself. Sorry I can't give you flowers anymore and please tell father to drink his tea ever morning" she finally smiled sadly and bitterly.
I hugged her tighter unable to utter any word. "Why did we do this to our lovely daughter?" I thought. She suddenly yawned and it was so cute.
"Come on, I will sleep beside you" I guided her to her bed. I laid beside her and hugged her as she did the same. She was still sobbing but suddenly stopped. She fell asleep due to so much crying. I caressed her hair and sang a lullaby, she smiled.
"I'm sorry for hurting you" I said. "I know it's too late" I sobbed and fell asleep beside her.
