🎞Trailer 6: Special Gift

=Deobi Empire: Sky Kingdom=
/Princess Yoonmi's POV/

"Sister, are you here?" I heard Changmin oppa's voice behind the door

"Come in, brother" I answered as he opened the door and went inside before closing it behind him

"So what brings you here?" I asked

"Well... I haven't been in the indoor garden for a while so I just thought why not take a look at it again" Changmin oppa said

"I see..." I said, unconsciously playing with my silver crown pendant

"What about you? What brings you here?" Changmin oppa asked

"Me? It's like my hiding place since no one really comes here..." I answered

"Or you just missed grandfather that's why you're always here, he used to play with us here after all" Changmin oppa stated

"So you still remember those times..." I softly said

"Of course I do, what makes you think I'll forget grandfather? He was the one who comforts us every time we break down since Mom and Dad were too busy with their duties" Changmin oppa exclaimed

"It's just... Mom and Dad seemed like they didn't care about him at all..." I muttered

"Believe me, they do care about him, they just didn't want to show how hurt they were when grandfather passed because they needed to be strong for both us and the Sky Kingdom" Changmin oppa explained

"How can you tell that?" I asked

"Because I saw it. I was passing through their room before when I got a glimpse of Mom crying while clutching grandfather's picture frame as Dad consoles her" Changmin oppa said

I was stunned, I never knew Mom has a fragile side... because all she ever shown us was her strict side and sometimes her motherly side

"Everyone can break down once in a while, Yoonmi. Everyone has a fragile side they keep hidden to others" Changmin oppa softly whispered as he pat my head and left the garden

"A side hidden to others..." I whispered, playing with my pendant once again as a memory flashed back

"Grandpa! Grandpa!" An 8-year-old me exclaimed as I ran to my grandfather while giggling

"Ah, there's my little princess, how are you doing, sweetheart?" Grandpa asked

"I'm doing fine, grandpa, how about you?" Little me asked

"I'm doing fine if you're doing fine" Grandpa smiled down at little me

"Ah, Father, welcome" Dad greeted as he stood next to me

"Son, how are you doing with being the king of Sky Kingdom?" Grandpa asked

"I'm doing well so far, Father" Dad said

"Oh! Before I forgot, I have a gift for you, my little princess. Close your eyes and don't open them until I say so" Grandpa said as little me nodded excitedly and complied

A few minutes later, a cold feeling grazed my neck and I unconsciously grasped it

"I hope you like it, Yoonmi dear" Grandpa said

"Like it? I love it, Grandpa, thank you very much!" Little me exclaimed, hugging him

"I'll always love it, Grandpa..." I muttered
