Can I See You Again

Can I See You Again
My poor brother



Young took her sister away from their residence. Youra was unconscious drooping limp on the brother's back. Young doesn't know where to stop. 


Fathering…


He kept running because the masked men were still chasing them.


Mothers…


Until finally he realized that he had brought his sister running very far to the foot of the mountain.


Goodby..


The exhausted young man was almost out of breath. He saw a small mound not far from where he was standing. He who is aware is no longer followed to lower the unconscious sister.


“Youra, wakeup".


Young who had been trying hard in front of his sister finally cried and shouted looking at the sky while hugging his sister. 


I'm leaving, bringing your love that's left behind..

A while later, the fainted Youra finally regained consciousness. He awoke in the middle of a dark forest accompanied by the warmth of a fire ignited close to him. He who was frightened tried to get up and walk. He realized, he was covered with the brother's robe.


My poor brother..


Youra saw her brother sitting on top of a fallen tree trunk while treating his own wounds. Young looked very sick. Youra who saw the older brother approached her brother. However, his steps came to a halt as he approached as he noticed there were many scars on the body of the elder brother.


I never knew how long he had been suffering. 


“Kakak?” call Youra.


Young, who was aware of his sister's presence, quickly put his clothes back on.


“Youra, are you awake?” Young hurried to his feet.


“This, eat this,” Young gives the sister a sweet potato that she has burned.


What he showed me was that he was okay.


Holding back her cry, Youra took the yam from the brother's hand.


“What sister has eaten?” asked Youa who hid her sad cry.


There's only one thing I can do for him.


“Of course. I ate first,” replied the brother.


Youra ate the yam while shedding tears. Young sat down, approaching the younger brother.


“Youra, are you okay?” ask Young.


Youra who heard that back sobbed.


“I'm fine as long as Brother is with me".


I can't cry in front of him.


“I'm not like father and mother. I will not leave my foolish little sister,” Young replied.


Whatever, as long as you stay with me.


”Apply?”. 


“I promise. Come eat fast, we must find a place to rest,” replied Young.


I lost everything in a day. 


Dad, mom, my friend Ara..


They went to renege on the promise they made themselves.


Should I trust, sister as well?


When that's what I think, I can't cry in front of him anymore. I can't trouble him. I have to be strong so he doesn't worry. There's been a lot of injuries that he's been carrying all this time, I can't add to it.


I thought, everything that's okay turns out to be a lie. I no longer trust anyone. My poor brother he always lied to me. I will not be fooled by my stupidity anymore.

Some time later at the palace.


“What happened?! No way, that can't happen!” the king shouted from his throne.


“Your Majesty calm yourself,” the prime minister try to calm the king.


“What happened to my advisor?” the king leaned his body, looking weak to the point of crying on his throne.


The king seemed unable to endure his sorrow. Then the eunuchs and guards came to bring the king to rest. Seeing the king who was too sad, the ministers who were looking at him, so grieved along. 


”What really happened? The spread of the bad rumors of the Crown Prince has not even been completed, now the news of the death of the king's favorite official. The king must have been very hurt,” one minister told the others.


“The area where the country's advisors live was attacked by unknown people. According to eyewitnesses, they wear masks to cover their identity,” obviously the others.


“Wait a minute, isn't it very strange?” answer the chief minister of war.


The ministers then looked at each other and approached each other.


“Their pad was found on their home page. But until now the bodies of his two children were not found,” added the chief minister of war.


”What does that mean, his two children are still alive?” ask the other minister.


“Can be. The country's advisory son will be the Crown Prince's personal bodyguard. We just wait for news from the Crown Prince's palace, is Lee Young still alive or not?” the chief minister of war.


The prime minister who heard that looked unacceptable, then came closer.


”Nothing to count. Importantly, the bodies of the state adviser and his wife were properly buried by the palace as a sign of merit. If his children are still alive, it's none of our business. Now all we need to think about is a way to stop the spread of the Crown Prince's bad rumors. Then we will think about who deserves to fill this vacant position" the prime minister said. 


Hearing the words of the prime minister, one of the ministers then spoke up.


”Prime Minister Han, isn't this really in your favor? You're the father of the best academic student in the country. I also heard that your son is the owner of the highest grade of the state exam. Who would have thought, it turns out you've been hiding the ultimate weapon all along. No one knew you had a son all this time, right? Or maybe, you're the one who got rid of the state counselor, so that your son gets the position?” said one minister. 


Then the other ministers looked at each other and began to be suspicious. The prime minister smiled sweetly at those people.


“Isn't this supposed to be good news for you? You think I don't know that all this time you guys hated state advisors so much? After successfully getting rid of the state adviser, shouldn't you also be looking for a way to get rid of me? I'm not as stupid as the late Mr. Lee Tae Hwon. I am the prime minister. My power is not equal to your position. Rather than trying to get rid of me, you better think of a way to stay in this palace longer,” said the prime minister took a sharp look at them, then left from there leaving the ministers speechless.

One day at the residence of the chief minister of war.


Ara who got the sad news felt guilty and locked herself in her room.


“Ara out! You haven't eaten all day!” shouted mother.


The chief minister of war who saw his daughter's behavior became furious.


“Ara! Out or.”.


Ara finally came out of the room with her sad face.


“I don't want to eat,” he said while crying.


“You are why huh?!” snapped dad.


“What do Youra and her sister survived?” tanya lirih Ara who sobbed.


“Don't I warn you, never interfere in their affairs. If you still continue like this, I won't allow you to play again out!” added father.


“What has Father done? Did you kill his family?! Didn't I promise I won't play with him anymore? Why did Father even add to his innocent suffering?!” shouted Ara.


The furious father landed a palm on his daughter's cheek.


“You think your father is a fool?! I do hate state advisors so much, but I never thought it sneaky to get rid of them in such a shameful way,”.


”Listen, whatever happens to them, it's not our fault. I don't know who did it either. However, seeing the number of people who died, as well as many valuables that were lost is definitely the robber is the culprit,” added the father.


Ara fell silent, she tried to gather all that trust in her heart. Slowly, as long as everything is fine.


“I'm sorry Dad,” Ara crying in her dad's arms.


“Call my daughter, everything will be fine".

Meanwhile, at the foot of the mountain.


“Kakak, why don't we just go back home? I don't know how Nana is. Did he survive the incident?” ask Youra.


“For the time being, we have to stay here,” explains Young who is making food for her sister.


“Have Father and Mother been buried well?” youa asked sadly.


The brother who heard that, his heart was weak. He who was busy cooking finally stopped for a moment to look at his sister.


“Definitely. The king must have buried them well,” replied the brother.


I know, brother was hurt by my question.


“Eat this. Brother must go to the palace to meet the Crown Prince,” Young then stands up.


“Can I not go too?” ask Youra.


“I'll teach you. From now on, we no longer go to the education bureau,” explained her brother.


“Play around here only. I'll be back soon,” Young added. 


Young hurried away leaving his sister.


At that time, I just believed it, without knowing the truth.


I never asked anything.
