"Lady Hae! Look what I've got for you!" A brunette shouts excitedly as she run carefully without tripping. In her hands she holds a beautiful bunch of White Roses.
Myung Hee or also known as Lady Hae smiled at her antics and her expression, while waiting for her arrival patiently. Nae Min, who was grinning widely extending her arm along with the flowers in fron of Lady Hae.
"Here it is, Lady Hae. I hope you like it, I was wondering outside of residence and suddenly stopped infront of a field. Which is kinda far from here and I pick these because I remembered you when I first saw it." She explained and smile at her. Lady Hae smiled softly and inhale the scent of the flowers and is feeling greatful as she appreciated the gesture.
"Thank you, Nae Min. These flowers are beautiful, and I really appreciate all the efforts you've made." Nae Min, blushed at the compliment and shyly played the sleeves of her hanbok.
"You're welcome, Lady Hae. To be honest, I am the one that needed to thank your graces. You've accepted me to your household, without knowing about my family history and I. That is why, thank you so much for your kindness. The Eighth Prince is really lucky to have you as his wife." When Nae Min stated this, Lady Hae blush and is happy when she heard those words. It is not everyday, she gets some compliments.
She just chuckled and starts to walk as Nae Min followed her from behind. Walking silently, Nae Min wondered 'Where did Hae Soo went this time? I hope she didn't get in trouble' she thought with a sigh. Every single time, she always think of Hae Soo, seeing that she always get in trouble. 'I hope that you're doing fine Hae Soo'.

Meanwhile at Hae Soo
Wondering outside the Eighth Prince residence and proceeding to the town, she smiled brightly seeing the displays and such. Living in the past is not that bad, even though wars are common and conquering place are too.
'Window shopping? Is that what I am doing right now? Only gazing things or shops but doesn't buy anything' she thought while chuckling at her antics. Behind her is Chae Ryung who is slowly catching up to her Lady, breathing heavily after her some tremendous running race in able to catch Hae Soo. Sighing and straigthening her posture she walks towards Hae Soo and settling herself to stand besides her.
"Chae Ryung-ah. Do you think Nae Min or Lady Hae will like this?" Hae Soo picked a rose hair ornament from a shop as she raise it above her head to observe its quality and design, the sun glisten along with the hairpin.
"It is beautiful, My Lady. I am sure that Lady Hae and Miss Nae Min will like those." Chae Ryung responded with enthusiasm.
Hae Soo smiled and nods and asks the shopkeeper to wrapped it carefully as she buys a red rose hairpin and a white rose hairpin. Contented, she thanked the shopkeeper and received the careful wrapped items that she bought and smile cheerfully as she continue to do shopping and walking around the city market behind her, Chae Ryung is following her Young Miss.

In a certain courtyard, two men are fighting with a wooden sword in their hands. One of them are wearing a mask had his hair to be tied in a high ponytail; while the other has a young complexion and wore a serious expression while blocking the attacks of the man and his hair that was tied in a ponytail is swaying from his movements as he gracefully counterattack.
It was a fierce battle between men, when suddenly one of the wooden sword was sent flying up high and then slammed to the ground. The man who was wearing a mask suddenly pointed the tip of his wooden sword to the neck of his opponent which is his 13th Brother, Wang Baek.
Panting heavily they let out a big sigh as they shook hands as a sign of sportmanship(?) and give each other a subtle nod.
"You're improving Wang Baek, it's no wonder that you look so focused in training as what I have heard from the others" Wang So nod at his brother with an approved expression at the improvement of his brother's training in swordmanship as he stretch his arms.
"I did my best Brother So, although you're still stronger than me in many ways as I cannot compare to you. Afterall, you're quite remarkable." Wang Baek compliment him as he smiled bashfully at being praised by his Brother So and shyly scratch the back of his head.
"Sooner or later, you'll surpass me in no time. Afterall, you're quite hardworking. Let's take a break in training and let us rest our body to avoid fatigue." Wang So picked up his belongings as he walk ahead straight to his 8th Brother residence as he received an invitation to eat lunch, behind him his Brother, Wang Baek is following his lead.

Maids are waiting the two princes and their master as they eat their lunch. Wang Wook is asking what did they do this morning as they look exhausted the moment they entered his residence. He just sighed and shook his head from side to side and laugh to himself. He wondered how in the world did Wang Baek survived at Wang So's training.
"Oh, where's Lady Hae, Brother Wook? You should know that she should maintain her body in a healthy shape. Did she already ate?" Wang Baek asks his brother as he finished eating his part in lunch. Wang Wook just nodded and smiled.
"Yes, as of the moment. She's spending her time with Miss Nae Min in the garden. Afterall fresh air is needed for her body." Wang Baek just nodded when suddenly a sound of the chair that was moved suddenly heard. They look at the source and they find Wang So, standing up and slowly leaving the room.
"Brother So? Where are you going?" Wang Baek asked. Wang So just looked at his shoulder and just nod his head as he said "Outside. I need fresh air" as he left the room.
The two princes that was left in the room, just shook their heads and smiled. Afterall, everything seems to be doing great.

At the garden, Myung Hee and Nae Min was sitting side by side as they stay silent. Wind was blowing softly as one of them smiled in contentment. When suddenly Nae Min started humming [Please play the video in the multimedia; TN: Please think that she's singing in Korean]
🎶Koko ni aru no wa
kimi ga ima made eranda michi no
kotae tachi yo
hora jishin motte susumeba ii
totemo shizen na no
ame agari no ASUFARUTO ni
niji ga kakaru you ni🎶
A sweet voice suddenly surrounded the garden as the wind blows softly. Her voice sound so enchanting at that time as Nae Min poured her heart at singing. Myung Hee smiled as she listens to her singing, unknown to them Wang So was in stealth and hiding as leaned his body on the wall as he closed his eyes listening to her singing.
🎶kitto kimi wa itsu no hi ka
kono sora wo toberu hazu dakara
nando kizutsuita toshite mo
For you
taisetsu na koto wa hitotsu
yume miru koto
kokoro dake wa tozasanai de ite 🎶
As she reached the end of her song, the sound of her singing still lingers in the garden as the wind passed by in a gentle sway. Wang So smiled as he still close his eyes, he thought thay day-by-day he seems to find himself in a situation where his heart beats to a girl who strung the strings in his heart. He thought 'Her voice indeed is what I need to help me sleep peacefully' at that point Myung Hee happily smiled at Nae Min as she complimented her and praise her (Are these words just the same? XD) that leaves the latter to be flustered as she blushed a beet red till her ears.
Well, just wait for a little bit until the story of this two lovebirds to slowly develop.
