Can I See You Again
Princess Shin's Wedding



Finally, the dreadful day for Princess Shin had arrived. The overcast sky turned bright, as if showing its beauty, not to be outdone by Princess Shin's sorrow. The queen in her luxurious dress walked haughtily under the sweet radiance of the morning, sparkling radiating her own charm.


Stroke his legs, racing with the sound of the heartbeat of Princess Shin who knew the arrival of the figure. The queen entered Princess Shin's room, found the princess bathed in tears, making her approach immediately.


"Tell me, why is my beloved daughter crying like this on her wedding day?" ask the queen to Princess Shin's personal servant. The waiter gave no answer, only able to blink a few times after lowering his gaze.


The queen smiled, immediately holding onto the shoulders of her poor daughter. "Daughter, a wedding in the palace is not something that should make you cry. For many years, the matchmaking was done by the palace. Look, the people before you, they were all married without love and now their lives are fine. That love will grow by itself" explained the queen.


Princess Shin raised her face, returning the mother's gaze with her sad face. "What about those who die after marriage? Those who marry traitors end up unfortunate and in vain" replied Princess Shin.


The queen smiled at him, showing how very peaceful and happy he was. "Ha Sun is a good young man. Your life will be assured with him. Not only was he talented, he was also extremely rich and popular. Princess Shin, you just need to rest your bad thoughts."


Hearing her mother's reply, Princess Shin took in her breath, exhaling violently, before finally issuing a shocking statement.


"Perhaps, I'll be fine out there with my wounded heart, but ... who guarantees my brother the Crown Prince will be fine in this hell with his heart wound?"


Plaque!


Princess Shin's statement, directly responded to the queen by landing her right hand on her daughter's grim face. "That kid's not your sister! He's a despicable man born from the womb of someone who has taken away our happiness. Stop thinking of someone as despicable as him. You, just enjoy your destiny and don't divert anything from him anymore."


The queen turned her steps to leave, "Servant! Quickly remove her tears! Crying on the wedding day is forbidden by the heavens." He left Princess Shin's residence with burning emotions.

A desperate move led Jung Hyun to the front gate of Princess Shin's palace. In a moment, he could at least see her lover for the last time. With a heavy heart, Jung Hyun looked up at the height of the gate wall, peeking at the balcony of Princess Shin's palace, even though it was a forbidden matter. Just once, after that he went from there to treat the wound in his heart. But alas, he did not see Princess Shin standing there, adding to his matchless grief.


Just then, when he almost stepped away, Jung Hyun again tried to glance at the palace. At that moment, time seemed to have stopped. She and Princess Shin looked at each other from a distance, rolling back old memories of the first time Princess Shin peeked at her first. It was when Princess Shin first fell in love with her, as a teenager.


Jung Hyun smiled at her, while Princess Shin with her tears tried hard to return the smile. Until one of the maids came, carrying a seemingly very personal letter from Jung Hyun. Quickly he grabbed the letter and immediately opened it.


"Stop crying Princess Shin. I'll be fine, so live well. Stop thinking about me and start a new life. I hope you stay cheerful as always. There's nothing more I can say, than take good care of yourself. To me, you're still Areum, the girl I love".


Princess Shin turned her head back out after reading the letter, no longer finding Jung Hyun standing there. It was a farewell letter from her, a final letter that Princess Shin could no longer reply to. All that remains are memories. The rest, there is only hope and a way to live the future.

No need to linger, finally Princess Shin was officially edited by a young noble named Ha Sun, the only son of the Chief Minister of Finance and Taxation.


Princess Shin is escorted by her ministries to a new residence located outside the palace, at her husband's house.


With a thin body, a pale face, and traces of tears on her cheeks, Princess Shin sat wrapped in a wedding dress on the bed. That feeling of despair made him want to scream and move on from there. The hope of getting married to Jung Hyun now only remains a memory.


Soon, after a hearty chattering with pain and tears, the sound of one's footsteps stopped the sobs. His heart was beating very fast. It must be someone he should know. Right, it's night, who else if not Ha Sun, her husband.


The door of the room was opened by his servant, presenting a man preparing to enter for the night with him.


Deg ...


After the young man entered, there was no sound out there. Everything seemed to be moving away, giving time for the two of them.


"Good night, Princess Shin," the young man greeted her.


Unlike Youra, Princess Shin was sweet on her husband, even though she disliked the man. "Good night, Young Master Ha Sun."


Silence became a friend to the two of them, bringing the togetherness to be even colder and frozen. Until finally, Ha Sun laughed ticklingly. "Hahaha, Princess Shin, are you afraid of me?" he asked, after seeing Princess Shin's pale face.


Princess Shin then turned to her husband, seeing how the young man was laughing amusedly inside their room. "What's up, Mister?" princess Shin asked hesitantly.


Ha Sun stopped laughing, "I'm so proud of myself, for being able to marry a king's daughter. Isn't that great?"


Ha Sun stepped up, taking the pillow that was on the bed. "Deplace your clothes and go to sleep. You must be exhausted after a long day of wearing that heavy clothes."


Ha Sun placed the pillow under the bed, immediately breaking down her body. Princess Shin was confused, the young man did not force to sleep with her. He was even casually acting ordinary.


"Sir, are you really okay, if we don't sleep on the same bed?" ask Princess Shin to her.


The young man sat down with excitement. "You want me to sleep with you?" ask her in a more passionate tone.


Princess Shin was silent. He just asked, not because he wanted to sleep with the man he did not love.


Seeing Princess Shin being transfixed, Ha Sun lay back down. "Because that's not going to happen, then don't ask me something that arouses my instincts as a man" Ha Sun said.


Looking at Ha Sun's friendly and kind manner towards her, the severe pain had at least subsided a little. Remembering Ha Sun is the son of one of the ministers who hates the Crown Prince makes Princess Shin think badly of the husband and the rotten plans of the support group in the palace. However, it seems that all of those thoughts are wrong. The young man who he thought was not virtuous, apparently was being kind and friendly to him.
