Chapter 15: Follow your Heart

November, 1, 1900

Ryujin's POV

I was still walking towards the place, when I saw another place that looks much more peaceful than the other one. I quickly asked one of the gardeners whether it was okay or not. Thankfully, it was okay, so I won't get in trouble or anything.

I sat down on one of the benches, and to be honest it did help me clear up my mind. I was thinking, if I could return to my own Kingdom, it means that I can't see Chaeryeong and Taehyun anymore. Or anybody that lives here anymore. But, in a good note, I get to spend my time with Yuna.

But, what about all the friends I made here? All the adventures? All the things I accomplished here? My dream of becoming a Court Herbalist. How about my freedom?

But, in reality I can spend my time with my family. I can see Yuna grow up. I can also help my parents with their work. I can be myself again. I can be a Princess once again.

But, I may not be like the old me. Anymore.

So many thoughts came in my mind and started to bombard me. I took a really deep breathe, since this was really getting me worked up.

Beomgyu's POV

I was walking around the Castle looking for Ryujin. Since, I called for her but she didn't show up in front of me. Which is really odd. And I already checked every single place here, and I still haven't seen her.

The only place that I haven't actually checked is the Castle Gardens, and it would be perfect since Ryujin likes to go here, in her spare time or to clear her mind off.

I reached the place, and the gardeners greeted me which I greeted them back. I looked around just to see a familiar Pink Haired Girl. Sitting alone, in one corner. Looking like she was busy thinking of something.

Since, she looks so problematic. I decided to help her with it. Since, she looks like she's been shouldering it all her life. I walked over to where she was once, I was a bit near her, I decided to get her

"Hey! Ryujin!" I shouted, which quickly made her flinch.

Ryujin's POV

"Hey! Ryujin!" I heard somebody shout. Which, I do admit it made me flinch since; I wasn't expecting somebody to do that.

I looked over to where that noise came from, and saw Beomgyu, walking towards me. He was smiling ear to ear. 'Idiot.' I thought and then smirked afterwards.

"Finally I found you!" He said, as he sat down right next to me.

I looked at him confused. "What do you mean?" I asked him.

"You forgot it didn't you?" He asked me. I just looked at him with a 'really' face.

But, then I suddenly remembered that he was asking me for something. Which, I just nodded my head in shame.

"It's fine. I guess..." I heard him mutter underneath his breathe, but you can hear that he was disappointed.

"No. I'm sorry. I'm really very sorry. It's just..." I said and suddenly remembered about the thing that my parents said.

I guess he already knew about the part that I already have a problem in my mind. "I'm just going to go and guess that you have a problem?" He said, more like asking me.

I just sighed at him. 'He knows me too well...' I thought. I nodded at him "Yeah." I said, answering him.

"I knew it." He said, and sighed.

"Anyway, mind telling me, why you didn't show up earlier?" He asked, changing the subject.

I was hesitating whether I should tell him or not. But, since he already knows that I actually have a little problem.

"Well. Actually the thing is. I was going to meet you. But I bumped into my parents and they asked me to tag along with them. Since, they have something important to say to me. Which brings me to my current state right now." I said, and looked off the distance.

"And that is?" He asked

"They asked me to come back with them. To Roselia." I answered him.

I looked over to where he is currently sitting at, he was shocked.

Beomgyu's POV

After she answered my question. That I wished I didn't ask in the first place. My Heart suddenly hurt, I don't even know why.

Maybe, it's because I got a bit too attached to her these past two years?

But, I'm sure that whatever she chooses, I'll support her. Since, she has always supported me on everything that I did back then. I smiled at her bitterly.

Ryujin's POV

Beomgyu just smiled at me bitterly. Before, he took a really deep breathe.

"Well. Take this advice." He started, and it made me look at his direction.

"Follow your Heart, Ryujin..." He said, as he left me alone drowning in my thoughts.

I guess the reason why he left me so, that I can be at peace with my mind. Which, it did help since everything's getting an answer. All of my Questions are slowly getting answered.
