Please look at the end of the chapter for a note :)

Swinging her sword with one hard blow, the wooden dummy broke into pieces on the ground. Minju was breathing heavily.

"I think that's enough." She stated, feeling her body ache. She's been practicing in the palace garden for about six hours now. Her face and clothes were covered in dirt, something a princess shouldn't be presented on.

The weather was perfect outside and the sun was out, together with the freezing air. "I should head back." She mumbled to herself, walking through the garden. She used her sword to help her walk, for her body could no longer carry her weight.

"Well hello lovely!"

Coming to a halt, the princess stood frozen of the sight in front of her. Out of instinct, she hid behind a random bush beside her. Taehyung was on his knees, talking to a pink tulip with a smile on his face.

She watched him secretly. Well isn't this déjà vu. She thought, finding this scene familiar.

"You must be lonely, being the only tulip in this area." Taehyung pouted, sad. The tulip stood against all the other flowers but none of them were the same kind as it. "Where are your parents?"

Minju scoffed behind the bush. She knew he would just feel bad for the lonely flower. She didn't know why she cared so much about the situation. "I knew it—"

"You're a special flower!" Taehyung exclaimed with a smile. "That's why you're the only tulip here. You're the most beautiful tulip I've seen!" The prince rested his face against his palm. "You may be lonely, but that's what makes you so special, yeah?"

She just stared at the scene with a blank face but her eyes told otherwise. Without realizing it, she stood up.

"Huh? Minju?"

Having a major epiphany, minjus eyes widened as she felt herself nearly fall. She used her sword as a support again and scolded herself for being caught. Exquisite job minju! She put her sarcastic thought away, and acted cool.

"What?" She tried her best to coldly reply.

Taehyung noticed how tired she looked as his mouth hanged open, but couldn't think of anything to say. "What are you doing here?" He asked, trying to have a conversation. He wanted to talk to her. Well especially because it's been a while since they talked.

Minju looked away. "I was just heading back inside."

"Oh..." Taehyung looked away as well. The silence was killing the both of them. They both had many things to say, but they just didn't know how to start.

"My...my apologies for being so rude to you the last time we talked." Minju looked at him. "I am positive that you were hurt." Her face wasn't evident with any emotion, Taehyung came to learn that it was how the princess was all the time.

"It's okay. I wasn't that hurt. I understand." Taehyung smiled. He motion his hand towards himself. An action telling the princess to come closer. "Come here."

Hesitating, Minju slowly walked to the prince. She was in confusion and didn't know what to do. She stopped when she was in front of him. With eyes following his every move, the princess watched as he took out something from his pocket making her grow curious.

A piece of cloth was in his hands as he started wiping the dirt off her face.

Her eyes widened. Not because she was angry, that was a feeling that wasn't present in the moment. Her stomach felt like it was turning. She's never felt this feeling before.
