Chapter 9 - Chapter 8

After that ordeal, I was temporarily staying with my parents since they wanted to monitor me. I was still put on bed rest, so I was constantly checked to see how I was and if anything was wrong.

My bed ended up being changed and my father ordered my room to be fire-proof, so I didn't accidentally destroy it again.

It was peaceful staying with my parents. I did not do much and a few weeks went by like that before I was finally allowed to move – which made me feel over the moon. At long last, I was able to take off the nightgowns I always had to wear and wore normal indoor clothes. Mary did my hair for me, and without wasting time, I ran into the garden. I finally felt free.

Despite the shouts from my maids to not run, I giggled and ran around the garden. Being inside a room for so long sure makes you long for fresh air.

I didn't look where I was going, and just like in every clichΓ© novel, I bumped into someone. I landed on the floor and heard the shouts of my maids come closer.

"Your Highness!"

Before I knew it, I was lifted back onto my feet and several hands patted my dress so the dust could fly away.

"Have you hurt anywhere your Highness?"

I shook my head before looking in front of me.

"Apologies your Highness," a small voice said before bowing his head.

It was a young boy. He was my age and he had brown hair and emerald, green eyes.

"Ian!"

Surprised to see him, I smiled out of joy. This boy was my friend, Caspian Havenash, also known as Ian to me. The first son of Duke Havenash – who was also friends with my father.

"You don't need to apowogise. It was my fault," I brushed off what happened.

"I'm so happy to see you!" I exclaimed.

He smiled back as pink tinted his cute cheeks.

"Oh my. It seems you have already met Lord Caspian," I heard a melodic voice say.

Knowing whose voice it was, I looked behind me.

"We invited the Havenash's over because we knew you were bored," mother explained.

I jumped up and down and took Ian's hand.

"Yay! Let's go to the lake!" I excitedly said.

With me taking the lead, I ended up dragging Caspian with me to the dazzling lake with everyone else following us.

When we arrived, I was in awe at how blue the lake was. It was a deep rich blue colour, something I wasn't able to see in my past life. Like I said before, though I couldn't really remember what happened, I knew that I never saw a sea/ river or went to a beach. Vacation didn't exist for me. Technically speaking, the hospital was my home, so I did not have the leisure to think about going anywhere.

"Wow! So pwetty!"

I looked at Caspian and he was smiling too.

"Do you want to go on the boat, Ian?" I asked.

He blinked before frantically nodding his head.

"Mummy! Let's have a boat ride."

I could see the hesitance in my mother's facial expression, but she ended up agreeing. It was probably because she felt pity for me since I was on bed rest for a while.

When I, Caspian, my mother and Duchess Havenash with some maids were seated on the boat, the boatmen started sailing. It was a very grand boat. It had various designs and ornaments all over. Just with a glimpse, you could tell this was owned by the Imperial Family. Flowers and vines intertwined to form an arch above the seats – it was really pretty.

Ian and I played with the water on the edge of the boat, but we were scolded because it was dangerous.

Though technically I had a mind of a 15-year-old, I still felt like a child because everything was still new to me. Now that I was reborn, I wanted to experience everything I couldn't do in my past life.

After having a wonderful teatime, Caspian and Duchess Havenash left and I was left alone to play -well with my maids. Currently, I was busy making a flower crown for me, my mother and my father. I felt happy doing it because making something for the people I loved was new. It felt nice being surrounded by those who openly cherished you.

I was finishing up making my flower crown when suddenly an image popped up in front of me. I did a double-take before taking a step back. It looked like a hologram. It was an image of a blank page?

The page was bigger than me.

Confused, I looked around but none of the maids and even Mary showed any sign of surprise.

"Erm, Mary? Can you see this?" I said whilst pointing at it.

Mary tilted her head as she looked in the direction I was pointing at.

"See what, your Highness?"

At that response, I knew she couldn't see it.

"Nothing."

I brushed it off and looked back at it. Was I the only one that could see it?

Suddenly, text started appearing in the blank space, startling me. I took another step back, feeling a bit frightened.

Once the text finished, I realised it was all in hangul?

Slowly, I read the whole thing.

When I finished reading it, I was puzzled even more. What on earth…?

As soon as I finished, the page disappeared as if it was never there, leaving me in a state of confusion.

I went over everything I read but could not infer what it was. The page sort of described my afternoon with Caspian – however, it wasn't completely accurate. But at the same time, I felt goosebumps. How did this thing know about what I did? Also, what was it with me feeling something warm?

All I could think about was that it resembled a passage from a story or something, but that was it. I still did not know why it appeared before me.

Feeling like my head was going to explode from all the thinking, I decided to forget about it. I'll just think of it as a weird phenomenon or something.
