Taking in a deep breath, Lee Soohyun stood behind Han Minhyun. Finally, after all this time, she was getting to meet, Minnie— due to whom all of this started— and her feelings were towards Minnie were mixed.

Minhyun made knocks on the door before him, and when a soft 'come in' was heard, he extended his hand towards the handle of the door to pull the door open.

After that, he stepped into the room, and Soohyun followed behind him. Then, tilting her head, she tried to take in the view before her.

The room before her appeared quite majestic, and there was a table present inside the room. Behind the table was a man seated, who was wearing a golden cloak. His golden cloak shimmered.

Raising his head, he looked towards Minhyun. His appearance made Soohyun widen her eyes, and she had to admit that he was absolutely breathtaking. His soft bangs of hair fell on his side, emphasising his gentle outlooks.

'Is he an angel?'

"The two of you are here. Mihee has been anxiously waiting for you too, especially you, Soohyun," he vocalised— his tone sounding absolutely melodic. 

Then, he flashed a smile at her direction, and at that very instant, Soohyun felt as if her heart would jump out of her chest. Although she had met all type of handsome men after being at here, he was absolutely at some other level.

Turning back, Minhyun wore on a grim expression while he, in a low voice, said, "Stop gawking at him."

Raising one of her eyebrows, an amused expression sat on Soohyun's face as she voiced out, "Why? Does it make you jealous?"

She then added, "Too bad, even if that is the case, I can't stop myself from admiring beauties, so I guess you will just have to bear with this."

"You fool, that is not what I mean," Minhyun said, "You will make him uncomfortable by gawking at him this way, and you never know when he might make an ominous prediction for you."

"Geez! You are annoying," Soohyun vocalized.

"I can take you back without showing Mihee to you. You do realize that," Minhyun voiced out.

Lee Soohyun decided that it would be for her best to not give any kind of retort to Han Minhyun, and flashing a smile towards the Oracle, she voiced out, "Is that so? Where is she? I have been really anticipating to meet her as well! What a coincidence!"

"Enter in through that curtain, and you will be able to see her. She is the only one inside," the Oracle vocalised.

Lee Soohyun nodded at him, and the smile on her face grew wider as she walked towards the direction of that curtain without wasting a second longer.

Han Minhyun stayed rooted at his position and let her do the work on her own. He had no interest in getting into the childish things.

Pulling open the golden curtains, Soohyun entered in, and that is when, her eyes fell on the little girl that stood at one corner of the room. Seeing two ponytails worn by her, Soohyun's eyes widened due to disbelief.

"Wow! Minnie, is that you? Wow! You are so short and look like a ten year old!" Soohyun commented.

Hearing those words from Lee Soohyun immediately caused irritation to show on Mihee's face, and she furrowed both of her eyebrows.

"Shut up!" Mihee exclaimed as a small blush formed on her cheeks.

As a gleeful smile sat on Soohyun's face, she walked towards Mihee. Finally, after all that waiting, she saw Mihee, and despite being shocked by her appearance, she was ready to take her revenge on the girl.

"It is truly nice to meet you after so long, Mihee. I have planned about so much fun," Soohyun vocalized.

Mihee coughed and said, "I apologise I would nit be able to entertain you now. I have some urgent work to get to."

There was no way Soohyun was about to let Mihee escape after meeting her, and going over to Mihee before she could run away, Soohyun pulled her into a tight hug. Extending her hand towards Mihee, she patted on top of her head, messing Mihee's hair up in the process.

°°°

The sound of laughs from Soohyun and yells of help from Mihee could distinctly be heard by the two on the other side of the curtain.

Shaking his head at that, Minhyun walked over to the Oracle's table and sat down opposite to it. Raising his head, the Oracle looked towards Minhyun.

"How are things going?" the Oracle questioned.

"You know the answer to that. Everything is clearly a mess. Any new predictions that might help us?" Minhyun vocalised.

The Oracle recalled about the vision once he had of Minhyun getting stabbed by a sword. The sword appeared to be quite blurry, so he could not pinpoint whom it exactly belonged to.

Recently, he had not had any predictions, and that was something he could not deem to be good or bad. Nonetheless, it was worrisome to not have any prediction at such a critical time.

Shaking his head, the Oracle voiced out, "Nothing helpful. There are some things that are better not known."

Han Minhyun let out a sigh at it.

Before Minhyun could say something else, Mihee rushed out of the room as if she was running away from someone, and instantly behind her Soohyun came running out through that door.

"Don't be such a coward, Mihee. Let's have some more fun," Soohyun voiced out— her expression showing how she was greatly enjoying this.

"No! No! No! I don't want to be part of this any longer!" Mihee exclaimed.

Currently, her hair was complete mess, and one of her ponytails were open. Wrinkles were upon her clothing, and her perfectly worn clothing was no longer the same.

"Aigoo! Mihee, you are so boring! We were having so much fun with this!" Soohyun voiced out as Mihee ran to stand beside her Master. Only he could save her at this moment.
