"what do you mean I can't go out..." the girl whined when her elder brother stopped her from stepping out of the house.
"You have duties, princess" the elder told her, emphasizing the word 'princess'.
She gave him a stare and walked back into her room, slamming the door in her elder brother's face.
He sigh outside of her room. It's not like he forced her... right?
"ChaeIn... ChaeIn?" He knocked on the door gently.

"Why do I have to do these stuff?" The younger asked while flipping through the papers.
"Well... because of this." The elder brother, Jonghyun showed a paper with neat handwriting.
"She hasn't gone out of the house for a month? What does that got to do with me?"
"You, Taemin, is a... how do you call it... party goer? for your whole life. The least you can do is to do this little paperwork." Jonghyun shoved more of the papers and files in front of Taemin.

"I'm sorry, forgive me? My dear sister?" ChaeIn read the note which was decorated with marker drawn hearts.

"Why are you late? We've been waiting for you for a whole hour!" ChaeIn's friends were around her, iterrogating where had she gone.
"I had... chores to do." ChaeIn looked for some reason. Well... yes, her friends don't know she's a royalty. She doesn't want her friends to know and treat her with a royal label. Keeping it low was better since she's more comfortable with it.
"Where are we going again...?" ChaeIn asked which caused her friends to look at her weirdly.
"OOoooh... my... I forgot. We're going to celebrate... sorry." She gave a laugh while shoving her friends towards the said place.
@@
"Hurry up!" Jonghyun ordered his brother who was reading the thick pile of contracts.
"Relax... You do know that I've been sitting here for the whole 2 hours with you mumbling stuff?
"There's a deadline,young Taemin. You're supposed to finish this in 1 hour. ChaeIn always does it so quickly, why can't you? And I have to deliver them at 3pm, which is half an hour away. Hurry up and stop talking." Jonghyun knew that his brother wasn't even trying to be quick.

"...The ships are coming in by today. Please send a few people there by 3. That will be all." The young man said while checking the lists of shipments for the day.
"Yes sir." The secretary noted it down, as well as a few other tasks.
After the secretary left, the young man received a call.
"Hey, you want to go for a drink?"
"No thanks, next time... Busy season. I've got another call waiting, sorry." Minho ended the phone in a rush and answered the next.
"Minho from MK corp..." He was starting his introduction and was cut off by the voice from the other end.
"Minho, when are you coming home?"
"Hello mom, I'm coming home today at 6. Sorry... I forgot to tell you." He felt apologetic of letting his mom worry.
"Ahh... I want to cook your favorite food. You haven't come home for such a long time." Her gentle voice, how long has it been already?
"I missed the food. I'll be eating a lot when I come home." He laughed a bit.
"Then I better start preparing now. We'll be waiting for you."
The mother and son chatted a little more before the call ended.
