Tae Eul POV

I tried my best to harden my heart, and held back the tears that wanted to break out of my eyelids. I was planning to cry in my bedroom, but everything that happened in my life always happened out of my plan. My tears flowed freely when I got to the bus stop, unbearable. Some people who were waiting for the bus were surprised to hear my sobs. A woman even gave me a bottle of mineral water and tissue.

"Are you okay?" She asked with worried.

"Are you in pain? May I call 119?" Asked an old man.

"I am okay, thank you," I said.

I retreated to a quieter place so as not to attract too much attention. I didn't know that breaking up with Gon could cause me hurt so much, so what about him? I must have really broken his heart.

I really don't have a heart. Yes.

I'm selfish. Yes.

I'm a coward. Yes.

I'm too scared to face the consequences if we stay together. Yeong said that it will be a little bit mess if we live in the same universe with our doppleganger, but I thought it will be a big mess. Especially if I live in the Kingdom of Korea, as Gon's queen. Apart from identity issues, I don't feel worthy of being a queen. I'm afraid I'll cause chaos there. I'm afraid my presence will interfere with other people's lives -- Luna. She's no longer a criminal with no official identity, but a detective, just like me. She also has a family. And there are still many things that I worry about. Now Gon himself can no longer leave his kingdom because he has no heir. I didn't want him destroy his own kingdom just because of me. That's why I decided it.

'I'm sick of it, I want to live a normal life, I don't love him anymore', it's all lies. I just spit out those harsh words so that it would be easier for him to hate and forget me.

I touched my belly, feel bad because I have to separated it with its dad, even the dad not knowing its exist. Let's live just two of us, Little Rice, without bothered your dad ...

Author POV

Kingdom of Korea, 1 week later ...

"Oh?" Yeong looked surprised to see Gon who was still in his office in afternoon, "Aren't you traveling today?"

"Why? Are you planning to use my office to make love with Miss Myeong?" Gon asked indifferently while pasting some documents.

Both Yeong's cheeks started to blush.

"She asked to broke up," Gon grumbled.

Yeong frowned.

"She said she was tired of dating man from other worlds and wanted to live a normal life. She also told me to marry another woman from my world."

"And you agree?"

"Of course not," Gon slammed the stamp on the final document before leaving his desk.

"Don't leave 'traces' on my desk."

Yeong's face more blushed like a boiled crab ready to eat.

"Oh, Pyeha," Yeong called before Gon came out of the room, "I think you must know this, I think one of the reasons she dumped you was because of me."

"What do you mean?"

"On the day of Princess Se Jin's funeral and you told me to deliver a message to her, she asked about your heir problem because the Princess was died. She also asked what if I lived together with Eun Seob in one world? I think I was too honest in answering. I said, 'maybe it will be a little bit mess'. I regret it now. I should have just said 'I don't know'. I'm sorry, Pyeha."
