Chapter 125 - His fated one [1] (1/2)

While both of them walked through the hallway, Moon Jiwoo faced the boy beside her and questioned, ”What are you planning to do for later?”

Raising one of his eyebrows, he voiced out, ”I am free. Why?”

”I want to go outside. It's been a long time since I was able to hang out with you. Aera has been busy recently,” Jiwoo spoke out.

”I got no problem with that. Work had been taking up lot of my time recently, and at this point, I guess I am growing to become tired of this.

I can't bring myself to feel enthusiastic about it any longer,” he stated, ”It makes me want to give up this position. From the very beginning, I did not want to do this, but now, the feeling is getting worse. I wish there was someone to take my position.”

Pointing at herself, Jiwoo said, ”If you don't want to, give it to me then. I always wanted to try ruling over a country. This seems to be a perfect opportunity.”

Letting out a chuckle, he brought his hand over to her face and flicked lightly on her forehead causing her to let out a little winch. While glaring at him, she rubbed the surface that was slowly turning red.

”I can feel pity for the people at here. That's why, that wouldn't be possible.”

Moon Jiwoo scoffed and vocalised, ”I don't think that I lack capabilities to rule a country. Who knows? I might even turn out to be better than you. You shouldn't easily underestimate people.”

”I believe in miracles, Shin Daerin, but it would be taking more than a miracle to make that happen. Anyway, thank you. I guess it's the thought that counts.”

”Tch! I was being serious. If you don't believe it, you can try to test me. In one day, I will be cleaning the entire kingdom, starting with that Junghwa in the beginning, and put a rule that annoying will be leading to imprisonment.”

He chuckled and voiced out, ”I can clearly see your intentions now for being a King. They—”

Before Oh Sookyung was able to continue further, something caused him to lose his voice for a second. He was surprised as he felt a presence, and while his eyes widened, he raised his line of sight.

A woman stood before him, and that woman stared at him in the same way. Both of them were unable to take their eyes off of each other and found themselves making their way to each other.

But realizing how Sookyung was looking at the woman, she found herself becoming silent, and all of a sudden, it felt as if something heavy fell upon her ċhėst. The scene in front of her was something she had a hard time watching.

It was easy for her to see how both of them were mesmerized with each other, and even someone as foolish as Jiwoo was able to guess the reason behind it.

As they stood close to each, he raised his hand, and the woman did the same as well. Both of them touched their palms and connected their fingers.

Unable to watch it any longer, she looked the other way. Lifting her hand, she touched her ċhėst and wondered why it was hurting that badly. Tears stung at her eyes, but fortunately, she was able to control them.

Oh Sookyung had finally found his fated one, the one he was fated to be with, and despite of his words previously, he was completely enamoured with the woman.

Then again, Moon Jiwoo shouldn't have expected too much. After all, Jiwoo was just an important friend to the man and satisfied with that.

With a wink of an eye, Jiwoo immediately disappeared from the scene. The suffocation she felt in her ċhėst was starting to get worse, and she was afraid to find out how she would be reacting if she stayed at here a second more.

Once Moon Jiwoo was gone, Sookyung realized of her lack of presence, and immediately breaking his stare away from the woman, he turned to face left, where Jiwoo was previously standing. But there was no sign of her currently.

While confusion showed upon his features, he mumbled, ”Shin Daerin.”

Moon Jiwoo fell back on her bed, and raising her hand, she placed it above her eyes. Taking in a deep breath, she closed her eyes.
