Chapter 13 - Picnic and New Friend

Chapter 11:

Eun Won woke up with a light headache. She groaned and sat up, rubbing her forehead. She stood up and went to take a bath prepared by Kim Na-Ri. She got dressed in a light blue dress and pulled her hair up in a ponytail. The door opened, and in came a servant from the kitchen and Na-Ri. They have a food container in one of their hands. They placed it on the small table in front of the door and packed out the dish. She and Na-Ri started eating. Eun Won suddenly felt like going out for a picnic and said, "Let's go on a picnic." Kim Na-Ri wondered why her mistress was so cheerful, but she didn't reply, just nodded her head.Eun Won requested that a kitchen servant make food for the picnic. As they waited, they talked about what they would find along the way. When their food arrived, they started their adventure to a picnic place that Na-Ri founded. Arriving at the picnic place, they took a seat on the grass. Suddenly, there was a crack. "Who's there?" asked Eun Won. "I'm Jiwoo," said a voice, stepping out of the place where he hid behind a tree. Eun Won looks from head to toe. She noticed he was not a threat. "What are you doing here?" she asked. "Was just walking around."I didn't know that someone else knew this place" said Jiwoo as he walked closer to them.

Jiwoo's point of view:

I woke up and decided to take a walk. I took a warm bath and put on a light green robe. Walking around the area covered in trees and bushes. I heard footsteps near the place where I used to go to clear my head.  I hid behind a tree but accidentally stepped on a thin wooden stick, and it made a cracking sound. "Shoot," I thought. "Who's there?" said a woman's voice. "I'm Jiwoo," I said, stepping out of my hiding place. " What are you doing here?" the woman's voice asked. "Was just walking around."I didn't know that someone else knew this place," I said, walking closer to them. I noticed the women next to the women who asked the questions. "She was cute and beautiful." I thought.

Jiwoo's point of view stops.

"What is your name?" asked Jiwoo." I'm Kim Na-Ri, and this is my misstress Kang Eun Won, " said Na-Ri, blushing slight. "Come join us," said Eun Won. Jisoo took a seat next to Na-Ri. Jiwoo noticed how Na-Ri glanced a few times at him. Jiwoo smiled lightly. They enjoyed their food and talked about their lives. Their favourite hobbies. Their time spent in the palace.

Kim Na-Ri's point of view:

Me and my misstress Kang Eun Won went to the picnic place where I used to go to be alone. There we met Jiwoo. He was so handsome for his age. I think I'm falling in love with him. Am I  going to confess. I threw a few glances at him, and I felt my face hitting up. Am I blushing. Does he notice it? I'm so nervous right now. We started talking, and it seemed like I knew him long ago. We talked about our hobbies. Our favourite colours and everything in between. Everything was perfect. 

Kim Na-Ri's point of view stops.

Eun Won was enjoying her time with her new friends. She never had any friends. She was grateful that she had met them in this lifetime. From a young age, it was always just her and her mother at home. As time went by, it was already the afternoon. They took their separate ways. Eun Won went back to her room. Ariving in her room, she took a nap. Jiwoo went to Emperor Yu-Jun's chambers. Arriving at the chambers, he knocked on the door. "Come in" said a male voice.

Walking in, he greeted the emperor. "Good afternoon, my dear friend" said Jiwoo. "You still don't have any manners for greeting me" said Yu-Jun. "Come on, we have been best friends since childhood" said Jiwoo sarcastically "You and your manner should really get a good whip" said Yu-Jun sarcastically. 

"Why are you here" asked Yu-Jun. "I went on a walk near the place where I go to clear my head, and you wouldn't believe who I met there" said Jiwoo. "Who" said Yu-Jun curiously. "I met the look-alike Eun Won and her friend Kim Na-Ri. I think I am in love" said Jiwoo. "In love with whom?" asked Yu-Jun with slight jealousy. "In love with Kim Na-Ri" said Jiwoo. Yu-Jun sighed in relief that he didn't say Eun Won. "Have I fallen in love with the look-alike Eun Won?" thought Yu-Jun. "What are you going to do about your love for Kim Na-Ri" asked Yu-Jun. "I'm going to make her fall in love with me, of course." said Jiwoo. "Good luck with that" said Yu-Jun. I hope I get her because who will not fall for my charms?" said Jiwoo. Yu-Jun couldn't hold it back anymore and burst out in laughter. Yu-Jun was amazed by his best friend's confidence. He was so full of himself. Yu-Jun wondered how he and Jiwoo became friends because their personalities were so different from each other. Even their interests in life were different, so were their hobbies. Even their choice in women. Eun Won has woken from her long nap and saw that it was already night. She took a bath and got dressed in warm clothes. She ate the food prepared by the kitchen and went back to sleep. As the night came, Yu-Jun and Jiwoo said goodbye to each other. While Jiwoo went to his room, Yu-Jun took a warm bath and got dressed in warm clothes. He ate the food prepared by the kitchen, and when his is done, he did some royal business before going to bed. The night was cold and longer than usual. Each with thoughts in their head.
