Chapter 11 - 11 Reunion

Hours before Seoyoon's death

Seoyoon was silent in front of her room while watching the afternoon sky that was so bright right now, it was inversely proportional to her mood. The woman's pretty face was so pale, she even looked like a corpse. She breathed slowly. For a week she spent in her room alone, making herself very bored. But she also couldn't go out of the house because her body was very weak. In addition, she misses Jung Soo Chan very much. How's the man doing right now? Is he okay?

"What are you looking at, Seoyoon?"

The question Mrs. Min asked made Seoyoon turn her gaze from the sky to her mother. A smile fell on her pale face. "Just look at the sky, Mom," she replied.

Mrs. Min, who was sitting next to the child, took her daughter's hand and held it. The Princess's hands were cold at this time, making the noblewoman gently stroke Seoyoon's hands to keep them warm.

"Mother," called Seoyoon suddenly without taking her eyes off the sky.

"What is it?" asked Mrs. Min.

"I'm sorry if I always upset you," said Seoyoon, who did not get any response from her mother. "Then, I want you to promise me one thing." She turned her head to her mother, putting a smile on her face.

Mrs. Min who saw the smile on Seoyoon's face was unable to hold back her tears. She felt sad to see the face of the child who looked pale at this time. The noblewoman took her eyes off her daughter for a moment to wipe away her dripping tears.

"Mom, please don't be sad if I leave you and dad. Even though my body is no longer with you, my soul will continue to be with you," said Seoyoon as she hugged her mother from behind. The woman shed tears as well but a smile actually tersungging on her face.

Mrs. Min really couldn't help feeling her sadness. The woman felt that the time of the child would not be long. The woman removed both of Seoyoon's hands that hugged her. She looked at the boy and smiled. "Why do you say that?" she asked, wiping away the tears that came out of his daughter's eyes. "You will recover, Seoyoon. Doctor Kang will take good care of you until you are completely healed and can have fun as usual again."

Sadness enveloped the funeral of Princess Seoyoon on this day. The mourners who came were very sad about the departure of the princess who was known as a cheerful and kind person. Not only the family and also mourners are saddened by the departure of the woman, the sky today is also saddened because the sky is currently pouring rain drizzle.

Away from the people who were escorting Seoyoon's departure. Apparently Myeong Hee who was also wearing mourning clothes noticed them. She looks sad because the next target is actually leaving this world. Even though the smell from Seoyoon's body was really very tasty, even the girl's face was also very beautiful. She sighed softly and chose to leave.

After this Myeong Hee will return to life in the forest and go down to the village if her face starts to age to look for beautiful girls. In addition, she would also search for the existence of the reincarnation of Kang Yi Seok. Over the hundreds of years since that incident she has met Kang Yi Seok's three reincarnations, first the man was reincarnated as the Crown Prince of Joseon and ended tragically after being killed by his own brother who wanted his throne. When Yi Seok was born Crown Prince, Myeong Hee entered the palace and managed to become the man's personal maid of honor until the man's death.

His second reincarnation, Yi Seok was born as the son of a minister of war. At that time she could only watch the figure of Yi Seok who ended up dead during the war. And the third Yi Seok was born with the name Jung Yong Cha, whom he managed to marry and get offspring, namely Jung Soo Chan.

Myeong Hee sighed softly. "Next, who will you reincarnate as? Kang Yi Seok?"

California, United States in 1993

The views of the young men could not be separated from the figure of the woman who had just come to the big campus. The young men who were students were very fascinated by the figure of the woman---Lee Myeong, or now she has changed her name to Lee Emma. The woman Gumiho now has the status of a student of the culinary department at the University. After hundreds of years of losing her husband and killing her own son, she returned to the forest and lived there for hundreds of years. When the world began to change, she decided to stay and mingle with the humans even though he still went looking for beautiful girls for she took his heart. She decided to fly to California three years ago and is now a college student after manipulating her abilities.

Her footsteps stopped when her two eye beads accidentally caught a figure that was completely unfamiliar to her. The figure she loved the most in her lifetime, that is another reincarnation of Kang Yi Seok.

"We meet again, Kang Yi Seok-ssi," Lee Emma murmured as she watched the man playing basketball with his friends.

Unexpectedly, the views of the two of them met each other, making Emma immediately shift her attention for some reason. She even left the place with his heart beating fast enough.

"What's wrong with you, Lee Myeong? Why did you fall in love with this guy for the first time?" she murmured.

Hwang Jason, didn't touch his drink at all since coming. The man was thinking about the figure of the woman he saw while playing basketball. He was fascinated by the beauty of this woman. Jason's silence turned out to make three of his friends---Louis, Kevin, and Albert-look at the man seriously. The three of them were very curious about what Jason was thinking at the moment.

"Hwang Jason, what are you thinking?" asked Louis in the end broke the reverie from Jason.

The Korean-American looked at his friend with both eyebrows raised. "What is it?" he asked.

"We should have asked that," Kevin said.

"You've just been silent while stirring your drink, what are you thinking?" This time it was Albert who asked.

Jason did not immediately answer the question from his best friend. He looked at them one by one and then leaned slightly, making his friend lean in as well. "When you were playing basketball, did you see a girl wearing a pink dress?"

"The girl in the pink dress?" Kevin asked to confirm, then he looked like he was thinking, trying to remember. "Oh, Lee Emma!"

"You know her?" Jason asked, looking at Kevin sitting next to him.

"Oh my God, Lee Emma is the most beautiful student in the University," Kevin replied. "You don't know?"

Jason nodded his head. "I don't know if she's the prettiest student here. Then, I also seem to have seen it for the first time."

"It's only natural that you saw it for the first time. During college here all you did besides playing basketball was study, " Albert's Babble made Kevin and Louis laugh.

"But why are you asking her?" asks Kevin.

"Oh come on Kevin, you're not sensitive at all huh? If he asks Lee Emma, doesn't that mean our friend is in love?" Albert teased with a smile on his face.

"Not really. I just asked," avoid Jason and then suck the drink. Her thoughts returned to Emma's beautiful figure. He needs to get acquainted with this woman.
