Lim So Hyang and Prince Siwan are face to face when, the museum manager and his brand new secretary come by.

When the new secretary, Tiffany Hwang, sees the Prince Siwan and So Hyang, she says,

"Hey,wow the Prince Siwan and Hyangi...your highness, really please to see you again"

"It's pleasure too, miss Fany"...the prince reacts

Just then...Prince Seokjin arrives...

Fany suggests,

"Let's all have lunch together"...

So Hyang has luxurious lunch that afternoon with high class people. The crown prince pay for all.

Again, they all talk about politics and share some of their personal lives as well. So Hyang stays quiet. But she notices Prince Siwan looks at her sometimes.

Fany says,

"Jinnie looks a lot more mature then when he was in the US. He gets more handsome too...like ....like a person in love"

Prince Seokjin looks blushed.

" I haven't find anyone yet Fany...I am looking for her"

Everyone smiles.

At the conversation, Fany and the manager talks a lot. What more is that this mature manager is very smitten by Fany.

Park Hae Jin, the manager of the National Museum office is a handsome man of 35. His family also from the relatives of the royal and he is very friendly with both princes since they were very young. He is very intelligent and hard working. He would have been very successful as a business man too. However, he choose to work in a museum partly own by his family. He is the only son. He has yet to find a girl who will possesses his heart. He family had tries to match make him with many suitable ladies. He refused and says he is ready for it and would like to focus more in works. This is the first time he has ever felt something special about a lady.

Near the table of the them, is sitting another lady. She is Lee Si Young, who used to be Prince Siwan sweetheart. He was so smitten with her since in their high school days. Lee Si Young is very intelligent woman. She is always in the top of her classes. She is also very beautiful. Indeed she is the envy of many women, especially when she officially became the young crown prince lover in their university years in the America. The younger prince never really likes or associated with her much because he thought there is something not clear about like Prince Seokjin thought Si Young never really show herself to the prince. But the royal family welcomes her as their crown prince lover as Si Young is also from the royal background. They even arranged for the two to get engaged. But after they all graduated from university, Prince Siwan had to work as an Ambassador for Korean Embassy in England. Si Young continied for her master. While studying master, she found this very charismatic, charming and very rich bachelor called Kim Min Jae and eloped with him and later get married just 2 months from the day they first met. Both her and the royal families were angry. But after a year of marriage they divorced. She just could not stand that his family and relatives had not much manners.  She found her husband not really taking care of her like before. But she had already known from the very start that he is a playboy. And she just learnt that his family background is not that great from the very the start. His grandfather was a poor farmer, but his son and daughter in law were very hard working and had a strong sense of economy and marketing. The family became richer and richer. Their only born son is even more intelligent. Their family business of clothing grow and grow and they even franchise their business in America. Nobody think they are poor now. But the things that they use and eat not so high class for Lee Si Young who is a royal relative. In fact, now she is very disgusted with her decision of marrying him, throwing away the chance of becoming the future queen of South Korea. But her former boyfriend had not gone out with anyone while she was married. Even the royal family is aiming him for another woman, she might still has chances.

At the Princeses, So Hyang, Manager Park and Fany finally finished their meal and conversation. They all get up prepare to leave. So Hyang is the last one to get up because she feels she is the lowest out of all. She finds an expensive pen at Prince Siwan place. She takes a look at it. It is imprinted the name Siwan. She thinks it must be really expensive and great to have ones name on the pen. Everybody is now going back to the office including Prince Seokjin because they had taken so much time in talking.

Prince Siwan goes out first to hurry back to his office. But at his parking, he sees someone he doesn't expected to see. Si Young, his ex girlfriend. There are tears in her eyes.

Prince Siwan asks,

"What happen"

Si Young just runs into the prince arms and says how her ex husband family mistreat her.

"I just want some comfort. I don't know whom I could turn to. My family hates me too."

The prince hugs her back though doesn't say anything.

So Hyang is looking at them from the corner of the cafe building not far from the parking place of the prince. When she sees the scene she is sort of shock. Is his ex is coming back to the crown prince life? And how will Bunny react?

She is not the only one who is peeping them.

High above in office balcony, Prince Seokjin is also watching them. He too is thinking about Bunny as well. Will his brother still let his ex girlfriend back in his life? How will Bunny react to this? He still believes, Bunny is still sensitive. What will happen to her?

**************

It is a sunny morning of Sunday, Bunny just learnt the palace lesson she has to for a crown princess. She is thinking about Prince Seokjin. She is very delighted with his cheerful presence. Since that raining day that they has had their first proper talk. They meets more like normal people and talk more too. They even practice for the ball party which would be next weekend for the Queen's birthday. Because, Prince Siwan is not at the royal house. He is working overtime. But nobody thinks their interactions to be anything strange. Both are conservative.

She asks,

"Would you go back to America,"

He replies,

"I'm not sure my lady, but the royals still want me here"

It is a little difficult to be near a charming. Because Bunny just feels like he is stealing her heart day by day.

This sunny Sunday, she is walking in the garden with her two maids and two aunts, her aunts tells her..

"I heard that people are gossiping Prince Siwan is sometimes seeing his ex girlfriend. He might be snatched back. You must not allowed it Bunny. You must used your wits and wiles so he would fall for you. Men usually fall for foxy ones. I think our has to work on it now try get near to Prince Siwan if he doesn't come near her much."

By their speech, Bunny is thinking something. Is being crown princess or future queen her life?...or is there a something she can actually choose from?

Finally, her aunts go back to other routine jobs so are the two maids since Bunny says she wants to be alone for awhile.

She walks here and there. The garden is so big. There is even cliffs. After all, the royal house is near the end of the city... therefore it has some countryside landscape surrounding. A rolling stream/(small river is inside the royal garden too. Bunny loves to sit at the edge of it. But after awhile, she finds Prince Seokjin comes to sit besides her.

They have a conversation. She asks a lot about his life in America. And about BTS.

He laughs,

"Yep, we were all very mischievous in classes, but we are fighter for youth life of so many things. Young guys life is not always innocent...but it is sometimes exciting."

The time passes very quickly. It is near to the evening. The sunset in the evening is very beautiful but it will be night soon.

They both get up and prepare to go back to house. But when Bunny gets up she happens to step on a small stone that makes her nearly fall into the rolling stream. But Prince Seokjin hold her arms. But her speed is a little higher so he has to take hold of her body.. he slip and falls not into stream luckily but on the earth ground backward.

Then, Bunny's body is on his and her lips are on his too. And his hands are still holding her body.
