Chapter 62
Yumei's eyes fluttered open, she blinked a few times so that her eyes could adjust.
Where was she? She looked around, this looked a lot like her bedroom. Did she fall asleep again? She cursed her weak immune system and she wasn't even that busy today.
She let out a frustrated sigh and she forced herself upright. She couldn't believe it... Asleep in the car when they went to fetch Yoongi.
"Why me?" She felt tears forming in her eyes. She wasn't going to cry, she had to he stronger but if she ever went out was this how her life was going to be?
Fall asleep and miss everything? Why was she born so early? Her mother never really told her were her weak immune system came from.
She had looked forward to her mad tea party with Yoongi and Jimin. Now they won't be able to have it. She opened the covers and her eyes fell on her cast.
Her leg which was broken and hindered her for doing normal things. She couldn't dress herself, she couldn't walk by herself... How did she get into bed?
There was a soft knock on her door, she averted her gaze from her cast. "Come in."
Her bedroom door opened and Yoongi slipped in with one of his hands behind his back. "Yumi..."
She smiled immediately. "Ooni!! You have come to-"
There was a big grin on his face. "I have come to deliver your letter and when you are done... Jimin and I have prepared your tea party."
Her eyes widened in surprise. They have planned her tea party? Just for her? That was so thoughtful of them. "You-you've planned my tea party?"
Yoongi walked forward and sat down on her bed. "That we did, we thought we would surprise you."
She smiled. "Considered me surprised!"
Yoongi removed his hand from his back and held it out to Yumei. Sye didn't reach out. "That... that is my book! Where- where did you find it?"
Yoongi smiled and stood up after pushing the book in her arms. "Namjoon had it, there is a small surprise in it for you."
He turned around and didn't wait for her reply. Yumei blinked a few times and looked down at the book in her arms.
Namjoon had it? When did he get my book? She paged through it, a small letter fell out which had Jimin's name on it.
She took it out and placed it on her nightstand, she would have to give it to him when they go down. She paged further and she let out a gasp as she got to the last pages.
A letter was neatly folded at the back of her book where she wrote her own adventure of her knight. Did he read it?
Her fingers trembled as she took the letter and her book fell close. If he did read it, did he put the letter near the story on purpose then?
She unfolded the letter and started to read.
"Dear Yuki,
As you have stated, it is hard to put your emotions down on a piece of paper then let it fall from your lips.
There are so many things that I want to say but I fear I would have to see you to let my true feelings show.
You have captivated me the first time I have laid eyes on you. You were reading a book int he cafeteria and I didn't have the courage to even utter a word to you.
Imagine my surprise when I saw you at my Mystery club, you were sad and lost. I have lost a piece of my heart and I had to see you smile.
I can't tell you what I have felt when you took my hand so that I could help you to get back to your friend.
And when I saw you at the sports event you were.. so courageous to stand up for what you believed in and I do not see you as weak.
My heart stopped for a few seconds when the accident happened and my every fibre was filled with thoughts of you.
I guess you could describe me as the knight who saved his damsel in distress but... I would do it all over again; for you.
In my heart, I knew you were different and that is why I bought you Morning Star so she could look after you if I couldn't be there.
I felt the need of showing you the stars because... I wanted to show you the beauty of the night sky.
I guess... What I am writing is to say that I want to spend more time with you. I want to see the world through your eyes, I want to see that beauty once more.
Yuki, I like you too and with my small confession... I return your Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
PS: Can we meet?
Yours faithfully,
Namjoon Kim."
Tears were forming in her eyes as she re-read the letter before her. So he was there when she had arrived on her first day and he kept her book safe.
She pressed the letter to her heart, Namjoon returned the feelings that she had felt for the past seven years, he wanted to meet her again.
She bit her lip lightly, how were they going to do this? She cant just escape her estate as easily.
She pulled the letter away from her chest and read it again. Her first love letter, her heart was beating loudly in her chest.
If she could jump, she would have. She wished she had a cellphone so that she could speak with him and hear his voice.
"Joonie, what would I give to be where you are now..."
There was a soft knock on her bedroom door, "Yes?"
The door opened and Jimin stepped in. "Princess Mei-mei, it is-"
He saw her expression. "Something wrong?"
Yumei shook her head. "No, nothing wrong. Everything is perfect."
Jimin looked from her face to the letter in her hand. "Oh! Did Namjoon reply?"
She smiled at him and her cheeks heated in embarrassment. "He has... Jimmi, I- I want to see him."
Jimin's eyes widened, this was good so that meant the feeling was completely mutual between them. He licked his lips, "When?"
"As soon as possible, I have to tell him something."
Jimin closed her bedroom door behind him. "I will see what I can do for you, Mei-mei."
She smiled and turned her attention back to the letter, her fingers trailed softly over it. "Thank you, Jimmi. I- my heart tells me that I should do this."
He knew what she meant, it means that she finally trusted him enough so let him in her heart. She was going to confess the truth to him.
But before he meets with her, he and Yoongi should talk to him first. They still need to implement their part of the plan.
That was going to the day that they will make them disappear and live a free life if everything went according to plan.
Yumei folded the letter and placed it back in her book, she placed it at her nightstand. "Jimmi before I forget-"
She picked up the other small letter and held out her hand to Jimin. "This was also in my book."
Jimin's expression turned into a frown and he walked forward and took the letter. He had to hide his expression, he knew the handwriting well enough.
It was a letter from Hoseok but how did Hoseok know that this would eventually lead back to him? His brother knew how to use his resources well.
"Thank you, Mei-mei."
Yumei couldn't hide her curiosity, "Who is it from?"
Jimin pocketed the letter, "It is from a friend."
"Well, aren't you going to read it?"
Jimin grinned at her. "Curiosity killed the cat, Mei-mei. I'll read it after our tea party."
Yumei pouted at him. "But what if it is important?"
"Today is not about me, it is about you. So let us go down and enjoy our tea party."
Yumei didn't respond and shifted slightly so that Jimin could pick her up. He lifted her gently, "Of to our special tea party just for you."
He adjusted his grip to open her bedroom door and made his way down the stairs, where he and Yoongi planned her tea party.
The letter in his pocket was itching to he read but that would have to wait until they are done with the tea party.
