It was a normal, routined, boring day nothing was different except for somehow being grounded by your own sister while collecting herbs you somehow swallowed a poisonous plant the quick recoverer you were you were able to move normally only Shirayuki decided to be over protective... guess who's sneaking out tonight?

"You said Prince Raji's concubine?" Shirayuki' voice questioned.

"Yes in other words his mistress." A male's voice replied monotonously.

'Wait, wait, wait. WHAT?!! MY SISTER IS GOING TO BE THAT IDIOT PRINCE'S WHAT?!!'

"Absurd! I can't believe that he'd be interested in a common girl like me just because of the colour of my hair! I'd be an embarrassment to him" Shira~ nee argued.

The two kept negotiating you assume, you decided to sneak out for a moment this whole ordeal hurting your precious brain.

***
As you were playing with a little rabbit a bell chimed signalling it was late this was normally the time when Shirayuki finished closing the shop for the day. Rather than having to face Shira's wrath of lectures for disobeying you decided to wait until she'd be fast asleep to return or possibly come home without noticing. In the end you decided to stay out here just in case.

You arrive home through the second floor window as you normally do and decide to rest on it for a moment when you woke up you were not expecting a knock at the door and that same male from yesterday to barge in without permission.

"Where are you Shirayuki?! You are supposed to look presentable to the Prince!!" The man yelled he was about to curse when he noticed something I'm not sure what it was but he picked it up and left. Once I was in the clear I saw strands of Shirayuki's hair on the floor and a letter addressed to me.

Dear Yukiko,
I am sorry little sister but I have run away from Tanbarun I will be fine I'll look for a better life but please do the same for yourself. I'm sorry the last time we spoke was when I lectured you if I had known I would've been kinder, I cannot tell you the reason I decided to run away but don't worry, if something happens remember God wouldn't put us through such suffering if he thought we can't handle it.

~Shirayuki.

A strange liquid dropped onto the paper drop by drip came a steady flow I raised a hand to my cheek and noticed I was crying. I think this is about the second time I've cried like this. But I'm sorry Shirayuki.
