It was a green snake , I picked it up it was definitely non poisonous
"it's not poisonous, touch it, it won't harm you " I say, he didn't seem to believe me
" see this " I said and put it round my neck " it won't harm you " I said moving closer to him
" don't bring that thing near me " he says
" aren't you going emperor, if you're this scared of snakes how will you protect me " I say and he kinda smiled a small smile
" you're such a coward " I smile and played with the snakes before letting it go while he kept staring
" how are you not afraid of those beasts " he says
" they never gave me a reason to be afraid of them " I say casually " I'm guessing you had bad experiences with them " I turn to Jim and he nods
" care to share " I say
" when I was still a kid, I and my friends would go to the forest unfortunately one day a snake bit me, it wasn't a nice feeling, since then I hated and feared snakes " he looks at me
" why didn't you just die, to save me trouble " I mumble
" what did you say " he asked
" I said what an unpleasant memory " I say
" we should head back " he says and we both walk hand in hand to the palace
" good news, your marriage is set for next week " my mother smiled,
I looked happy, inside I was miserable, why me
I stared at them in shock then gave my fakest happy look
" excuse me " I say and walk away, I rush to my bedroom and start to cry, jisoo and Meili came in after a while they saw the state I was in and tried to console me
