(EDITED)

" GOODMORNINGGGGG" Looks like someone just interrupt the sleeping lion. " Who the heck is that! URGH 5 more minutes Taeyeon!" She said in her sleep as she turn to the other side of the bed.

" Hey princess, poorly, it's not Taeyeon but it's your handsome brodah Vernon" Prince Vernon walk closer to her bed. He saw Emma's annoyed face. " You better get up before you late for your first day."

He said before walk out from her bedroom. " First...day?" She munching something on her mouth before she open both of her eyes quickly. " SHIT WHAT TIME IS IT!" She jump from her bed and wash herself and get ready.

💥💥

She run down from her room to the living room. With a babyblue coloured beg on her left arm while her socks on her right hand. " Princess, you might fall-"

" NEVERMIND" She ignored the butler on the side of the stairway.

As she was about to arrived in front of the living room door, the maid open it for her ; not wanting she got hit on the door.

The first thing she saw in the room is her brothers and her parents waiting for her. They look at her like she just committed a sin.

When she arrived right in front of everyone's sight, she stop and take her breath. " I'm...sorry..." She said in tiny voice with her eyes are on her playing fingers.

She raised her gaze, incase she got the courage to make the eye contacts with everyone. Failed.

As soon as she make eye contact with Prince Seungcheol, she saw his fierce gaze. " Did you realise you make everyone wait for you?"

Prince Wonwoo's deep voice made her looks like a small kitten afraid at her father. " I....didn't realise my alarm...went off...".

" That's a bad attitude for a princess." She rose her gaze at Prince Jihoon, criticising her. She start to tear up and make a small pout, she look down. Don't want to show that she's kinda sensitive although she know it's her fault.

" Should we return you to your aunt? Go back to your normal life?" It's Prince Joshua's turn to speak up. She don't mind to be return to her normal life, but that she just woke up late, is that a bad sin? She can't hold anymore.

With the tears already flowing down, she cried with a obvious pout. She raised her head, not caring her image now. " THEN DO IT! RETURN ME TO MY OLD LIVE! I JUST WOKE UP LATE WHAT'S THE MATTER! IF YOU HATE PEOPLE THAT WOKE UP LATE THEN THROW ME AWAY THEN! ANNOUNCING TO THE WHOLE KOREA, THEIR PRINCESS RETURN TO HER NORMAL LIFE BECAUSE THE ROYAL FAMILY HATE PEOPLE THAT WOKE UP LATE! SO THE KING CAN ADDOPT OTHER GIRL THAT WAKE UP EARLY EVERY DAY!" She rapped in one breath. Everyone was in shock but she's standing, crying childishly. " I'll pack my things.." She turn around and was ready to exit the living room.

" You really fell into that?" She didn'tget the chance to make her first step as Prince Soonyoung said that. She turn around, facing them.

" HAHAHAHAH YOU REALLY DID A GREAT JOB MA BOYS" The King stand up and laughing uncontrollably. And Emma just realised. She walk to one empty seat ; her seat. Annoyed. She wiped all her tears that left and didn't talk a bit. Still annoyed.

" Aigoo look at my daughter." She look at The Queen, she make a light click sound in her mouth. " New step-daughter." She said with full of sarcasm. The Queen don't even shocked if she answered it with sarcasm. She laughing followed by her brothers.

" Ha Ha Ha yea, it's funny." She crossed her legs and her arms. Looking completely annoyed. She realise, she's already late for school, even if spending more time her, aren't she'll be more late? " aren't..we late for school?" She said in the middle of the laughter.

Don't want to look like a lame person, she just playing with her nails. " Don't worry, I already told the university persident that y'all not gonna attend the classes today."

She widened her eyes. " Then what for I run down from the stairways, almost tripped? I should just jump from upstairs and let you guys crying over my corpse. and i'll haunted this palace."

" Omo, uuuu we're so scared baby sis." Prince Chan said between his laughter.

" Enough, Emma might cry again." The King calmed everything down. She sassily narrowed her eyes to her dad.

" Your Highness, the breakfast already served." A maid said in bow position. " Okay, let's breakfast together!" The King stand up, walking hand in hand with his beloved wife.

One by one prince followed them from behind. Emma choose not to stand early. 'Hurt' by earlier joke. She don't want to looked sensitive but 'return her to her old life' is not a joke to her. She felt like being adopted is a joke, she's a burden to them. Felt like being an orphan is something you can joking about.

" Baby sis?" She look at the person who just spoke. " Let's go?" He walk infront of her. Hurt by his joke earlier , she turn her face to her right. "Why? Are you still mad at our prank earlier?" He giggles. She confused either his laugh is sarcasm or he really didn't realise.

He bend down, at the same height as her crossed legs. " It's just a joke, Emma." He said, with a dumb smile. Bravely stand for her feelings, she look at his eyes. Deadly. " Never joke about that thing again, Prince Joshua."

Emma really another different person now. Her eyes are cold, her voice is deep and dark. She talk using the formalities, to get Prince Joshua back to his sense. He just stare at her blankly ; confused.

She get up and walk direct to the living room door. " What do you mean?" She stopped her steps. "Returning me to my old life is not a joke." Without turn around, she continues her walk to the dining room.

🌪

" Princess, let me take your school bag and socks to your bed room while you can enjoy the breakfast." Taeyeon approach her before she entering the dining room.

" Thank you." Still in bad mood, she walk into the opened doors in dining room. " Emma! sit here." Prince Seungcheol said, smiling. Ignoring his words, she walk towards an empty seat beside Prince Chan.

Prince Seungcheol's signature smile frown. He felt embarrassed and somehow weird with Emma's attitude. Not long after she sit comfortably, Prince Joshua enter the dining room with his frown smile.

" Now let's eat!" The King said. Not realising the tense in the air. " Is there something happen, Joshua?" The Queen, as expected. She feel the tense.

" I guess we shouldn't do that again." A chick sound that make everyone startled heard from Emma's direction. " I'm...done breakfast.." After few spoons of her breakfast, she left the dining room. 15 pair of eyes followed her figure until she disappeared from the sharp corner in front of the stairways.
