Not a Another Fairytale These questions has been on my mind since I was little: what if Cinderella never fell in love the Prince, what if Ariel never gave up her voice, what if Snow White never left the seven dwarfs, and what if Belle never return to Beast? These questions racks my brain every time I hear about how happy the princesses in my castle are when they meet their prince, and every time I wonder why does these girls, that I call my perfect mistresses, needed someone to be happy? Why can’t one bring happiness to oneself? For 11 years, I promise myself to love myself and myself only. This was an easy task since my family sold me to the royal family since I was five, however in my mind that wasn’t what happen, in my mind I never had parents, in my mind Mother Earth was the one who gave birth to me and I found my way to the castle because I wanted to and I can run away anytime I pleased. However a disturbing man arrived in the spring of my 15 years. His name was Bae Ha-Neul. He was young, probably 18, about six feet tall, blue eyes with silver hair, and his body as built like a man, sturdy. His words easily showed that he had received a high-class education. He was a typical Romeo. He had the personality of a prince: charming, good-looking, heroic, ruthless, misleading, and untrustworthy. He easily woos all the women in court, like any typical prince. I hated him, I hated the way he easily got everyone’s love, I hated his kindly words toward me, and mostly I hated the fact he won’t leave me alone. All new male workers always left me alone since I was not beautiful like the maids and princesses of the court. I was 5’5feet, too tall for any man. I had hair that was blacker than the sky at midnight that reached half-way down my back, too short for any proper hair style. I had black eyes, too dark like a witch. I was tanner than most maids, which showed that was a worker. And my few dresses did not embody elegant, which were too plain for any man. I did not mind that they thought I was ugly and ignore me because my vowed to never love anyone became even easier. However there was man who I can said I harbor feeling close to like, my older blood-connect brother, KiBum. Like me, Mother Earth gave him life however he was still a man. I believed I would have easily loved him if not for my vowed. KiBum was the only person who understood my way of life and he respected it. He was unfortunate because he had to endure bulling from the princes across the land since he was considered handsome by most princesses. I saw KiBum every night since I met him five years ago. And every night we would talk about silliest thing like who was the newest princess-prince couple and bet how long they will last. One night during one of rant session about my day, that devil, Bae, strolled by and randomly joined the conversion and ever since he would come and chat with us like we were the best of friends. Half way through the year, there is an annually ball that is open to public , and maids are invited to dress up in their best dress so maybe they can catch the eye of a prince and live happily ever after. That night, the castle was busy with activities since so many maids had left for the ball. I stayed back along with KiBum to help with the preparation for the ball with some other worker. Soon after the preparation was done with I left for my loft near the edge of the castle. I never went to the ball, or any other ball, I hated how all the girls would try to get a prince to fall in love with them. I finally reach my homey loft only to find a strange woman on my bed. She was strangely beautiful. She had long purple hair and her petit frame made her look fragile. ‘What are you looking at?” “Excuse me?’ “What are you looking at? Am I a freak show for you to look at?” “Oh no! I didn’t mean to stare at you. I was just admiring how pretty you are? But who are you?” “I have many names, including b****, witch, hags, ect. But you call me Mae.” “Mae?” “Mae, Queen of the witch” “Oh…” “Why do you keep staring? Don’t you know staring is rude.” “I didn’t mean to offense you, madam. It just I don’t know what ‘s your business with me.” “Don’t you know already?” “No, madam.” “Well……I am Queen of the Witches and once a year I HAVE to do a good deed or else my evil energy would just eat me up.” “And what does that have to do with me?” “Well you are the lucky person I have chosen for this year deed.” “What can I possibly want? I have an amazing friend and a great job. I have no worries in the world. So what can I possibly ask for when I have everything in my hands already.” “How about a chance to fall in love?” “Why would I want to fall in love? Love brings only sadness, jealously, and pain. Why would I ever ask for such a vile emotion?” “Don’t you want to fall in love and live happily ever after?” “Who said that I must be in love to live happily ever after?” “The law.” “What law?” “Wow! You must have been living under a rock or something thing. Law #1837, every maiden in the court must fall in love by the age of 16 or be turn in a witch, hag, or worst.” “When was this law pass?” “This law was established ever since the Court was created. This is why everyone is hurrying to fall in love. And according to my knowledge, you are six months, twenty days, three hours, and fifteen minutes away from your 16th birthday.” “So are you telling me that I have to fall in love or else I would be shun into the Forest of Hate?” “Yes, and no.” “What do you mean no?” “Well since you were brought here from the outside world, you are likely to die to the bomb that was implanted in your heart when you were brought here.” “SO YOU’RE SAYING I’M GOING TO BLOW UP ON MY 16TH BIRTHDAY?” “Yes.” “I rather die than fall in love.” “Oh really, then you don’t mind dying tonight?” “No, I would certainly fight if I had a chance but if there no way to stop the bomb then I rather die with happiness than die with pain and hate in my heart.” “You are a special one alright. Since you simply refuse my offer than I guess I’ll just have to make you go to the ball and fall in love.” “What?” “Oh nothing, just having a small conversation with myself. Here, since I can do nothing for you, then I’ll give you a potion to let you be happy forever.” “Wait, this is suspicious…..gulp…wait!.....gulp……stop…gulp. I feel really sleepily.” --------------------------------------------------- “Urg….” “Welcome to the Ball Miss.” “What?” “Please enjoy yourself and find a loving prince! Good Luck!” When I open my eyes all I saw was people waltzing and eating. But mostly match-making. I look down and say that my unattractive baby-blue dress had change into a sultry black grown that was fill with silver thread. My hair was no longer in a mess ponytail but it had small curls. And on top of my head was a headband that had stars that shone like really stars. “So this is what a ball feels like” “Why are you here, Sungmin? “KiBum, why are you here, I thought you were tired and wanted to rest?” “Oh…that because….” “Because I invite him here” “Bae? Why are you here?” “Oh, because I have to find a princess fitting for our Prince KiBum” “What?” “Hush” “Did Bae just say you were a prince, KiBum?” “…..” “Why did you hide it from me?” “Well, he never really hid it. It was just you never notice how the people treat him and assume he was a commoner since he helps you around.” “Stay out of this Bae; I want to hear this from KiBum.” “….I really wanted to tell you but you always said you hated princes and I thought that if I told you, you would only shun me and hate me. All I wanted your love.” “Love? I thought you understood my vow. Were you laughing when I told you about it? Were you thinking how foolish I was about the law? Were you mocking me? I hate you, KiBum; from now on we have no connection.” “Wait!” “Sorry to break up this fight but I have to ask Prince Kibum to come with me.” “What are you taking about Bae?” “Well, unlike most people here, I am to take Kibum here as a hostage.” “What?” “Well you see my mistress would like his company back in the kingdom of Itica and it’s my job to bring him.” “Stop his Bae; this is silly no one would believe this joke. Sungmin, wait. Let’s talk outside.” “I said I must take you to my mistress.” And the out of nowhere Bae grab a stick and lit it on fire, smoke explode from it. I scramble to find Kibum through the smoke but I couldn’t reach him. Finally the smoke clear and all I saw was emptiness. Bae had stolen Kibum. And no one knew. No one would help him escape. And it was all my fault, if only I had calmed down. Why did it have to happen tonight? Why did I have to lose my only friend? Why didn’t I listen to him? Among my crying I realize I had to find him. I had to find Kibum, he may have lie to me but he was still my important friend and I am not letting him be stolen by Bae so he could be brought to a stupid girl. That night I left the Court and headed to Itica. I brought with me some clothes, food, and money. I had heard that Itica was a land full of thugs and robbers. That Iticains were either starving or dying from illness. But the wealthy like princess and princes were rich enough to clothes themselves with gold and silver. Thinking about this I became even angrier. I hated the fact that my best friend was being kidnap to a vile kingdom like Itica. And I hated the fact that I didn’t have enough power to help once I reach Itica. “Why is that power are given to the wealthy?” “Because they have money.” “What said that??!!” “Only me” “What’s you name?” “It doesn’t matter, since you’re going to die in the next ten minute.” I Looked over there stood Bae. The look on his face made me even angrier. I lunch forward and started to kick, punch, and used every defense move KiBum had taught me throughout the years. He grabs my arm and brought it behind my back. I tried to get free but no matter what I did I couldn’t get free. “Let go! Let go so I can kill you Bae. If you’re not cowardly then let me go so I skin you alive. And where is KiBum?” “Whoa, slow down young lady. Who are you calling Bae? And when did I ever stole your beloved Kibum? My name is Hyungmin, not Bae and I’m pretty sure I never met you or your Kibum.” “Stop lying, how can I ever forget the face of the thief that stole my friend to bring to his mistress? And let go before I use my leg on your family’s jewelry. He finally let go of my hand. I clutch my hands again and prepare to attack when I realize he wasn’t lying. This man was not Bae. He had the same face and tone but his hair was brown and his eyes were brown. He reminded me of KiBum. Thinking back now Kibum did always look like a prince with his short brown hair that shine like gold and his golden eyes. I snap back into life when I notice Hyungmin going through my bag. “Stop touching my stuff. I need these to go to Itica.” “Why would a nice young lady like you want to go to Itica? It has a bad reputation, you know.” “I don’t care, I have to start moving again or else I won’t be able to save KiBum. With that I left Hyungmin to start my way to Itica again. I look at my map, I had travel for a day now and there should be a motel near here according to the map. I look everywhere but couldn’t find it so I gave up and camp near a small stream. That night, was the first time in a long time that I felt lonely. I always talked about traveling like this with Kibum. I fell asleep thinking of times I had with Kibum and how I really gotten mad at him for nothing. I woke up thinking that I heard a strange noise near me. The fire I built had died out; there was no light for me to see my attacker or attackers. I heard footstep coming toward me and with all my might I let out a sucker punch to the person coming near. I heard him drop to the ground with a thump. I quick lit a fire again, I looked over and there lay Hyungmin curled up like a ball. “Sorry….for…..scarying…you …there….but I….couldn’t ….see where…you were” “Oh my, are you okay, Hyungmin?” “Never been better.” “Let me help you get up. So why were you trying to find me?” “Well you see, I’m heading toward Itica also and I thought that you might want some protection on the journey. But I can see with that fist of yours; the robbers should be the one that need protection.” “Sorry.” “It’s okay as long as you let me travel with you until I feel better.” “I wouldn’t mind a company along the way but you have to help carry some of the loads too.” “Deal! So what’s your name I can’t call you “you” forever.” “My name is Sungmin.” “Well Sungmin, what brings you to Itica?” I told Hyungmin about Bae and his plot to kidnapped KiBum and what happed on that night. I really don’t know why I told everything so easily, maybe it because I really wanted to talk to someone. Since the ball, the only things on my mind was getting to KiBum as fast as possible. “So, what does that bastard look like?” “Who?” “Bae, the bastard that stole your Prince Kibum?” “First of all, Kibum is not my prince, we’re only friends. And Bae, well…” “Well what?” “He looks exactly like you, except he has silver and blue eyes, not brown hair and brown eyes.” “So that why you attack me earlier!” “Yea……I’m still really sorry.” “So do you know who Bae’s mistress is?” “No….” “SO HOW ARE YOU GOING TO FIND BAE?” “Well, I thought….I would ask around the town….and figure everything out one step at a time.” “How are you so sure you would find him?” “Well I didn’t think a lot of people in Itica would have silver hair?” “I guess that true. We have a long way to Itica. We have to travel a week straight, or two weeks with sleep.” “How long if we have a horse?” “A week and a half, at best. But we don’t have a horse.” “Sure we don’t…” “What?” “I know a place where we can get some.” “Where?” “I’ll show you tomorrow.” The following day I showed Hyungmin, the place that KiBum had told me about when he had left for a journey, couple of months ago. Throughout the day I keep thinking how I never really knew him at all. I thought he was a commoner but he turn into a prince. I thought we would be together forever but now we couldn’t be father apart. I really wonder how much I knew of KiBum was true. And there a pain in my heart that I couldn’t understand. I didn’t know why and where this pain came from. All I knew was that I didn’t like. The pain made me weak, the me now wanted to curl up in a ball and bawl. I knew I couldn’t show my weak self in Itica. If I did show them, I would be eaten up by the Iticain. Hyungmin and I travel for over a week. With each day we were getting closer to KiBum and every day the pain became more unbearable. I had to find a way to get rid this pain, but nothing helps. I tried to keep busy but the pain only would resurface moment later. I felt like breaking down in any moment. “Are you okay?” “What?” “You look down.” “I’m fine.” “I guess I wouldn’t be okay if my beloved was taken away.” “KiBum is not my lover.” “Then why would you bother to look for him in Itica.” “Because he is my friend of 5 years. I need to know the truth about him directly from him.” “That seems like a lot of trouble for a friend. Why don’t you just admit you love him?” “Because……I don’t know. If I say I love, what would happen? Would Kibum appear in front? Would I live happily ever after? Would I be happy because I have someone to love and not explode?” “Whoa what? Why would you explode?” “Because of the stupid love law.” “I thought those people turn into a witch or some scary s***.” “They do.” “Then why would you explode?” “Because I’m an outsider.” “Wow, so there are people like you.” “What does that suppose to mean?” “Well outsider never last past the age of twelve, without suicide, rape, or worse. What I’m saying is that you’re too pure to be an outsider.” “So?” “That means you have to get a little dirty or else you would stick out too much?” “How would I do that?” “You need to…..” “What? Tell me!” “I don’t know. I never had to dirty an outsider before.” “So you dirty other type of people before?” “NO nothing like that at all…….” “…..” “I have an idea.” “What! We’re not getting any younger!” “You don’t have to be dirty….you just need to look dirty.” “How?” “You need to dress like me.” “Like a man?” “No, like an Iticain.” “What?” “Well, we’re a half a day away from Iticia. And I’m pretty sure we can find some prostitute’s dress to borrow.” “What, did you just say prostitute’s dress?” “Yea, or would you rather dress like a street whore?” “….” “That what I thought. Go to sleep and we’ll worry about the rest tomorrow.” “Okay.” “So where would I find the clothes?” “Over there.” I look where he pointed and a gate that had Red-Light District on top. I didn’t know there were places like this here. We enter the shop with the fewest people and to only find the place filled with drunken men. I sicken me how these girls were treated like a piece of meat. I wanted to kill every one of these men that was here for their own pleasure. “Does these men’s wife know they’re here?” “Probably.” “And they don’t do anything about it?” “They can’t. Women in Itica are treated like trash. They either get marry against their will or become prostitutes to help their family.” “Why don’t they take a stand?” “They can’t. They don’t have money, power, or health to revolt.” “So, they don’t do anything. Why don’t run away?” “See, this why you so stand out like a sore thumb. You don’t act like how you’re supposes to. You revolt against everything.” “So, I would rather die than live a life that was mark out for me.” “But I guess that made you special.” “Thanks?” “Yea, let’s find you some clothes.” Hyungmin and I ask a couple of girls to sell their old wanted clothes. Most of them gave me their dresses, saying I can have them for free since most don’t fit them anymore. I kept wondering how these women, who live such a horrible life, still had such kind eyes and heart. They also gave us some food. We tried to ask around to see if anyone knew of Bae and his mistress but no one seem to know. “The only person who would be a mistress would be Ms.Jae.” “Ms.Jae?” “Yea, she lived in the castle in Ashton. She was the only daughter of Duke Michael.” “Can you please us the direction to Ashton?” “Sure, you take the road west from here and there should be arrows to show you the way.” “Thank you so much for everything. We would never forget you kindness.” “It’s no problem, me and the rest of the girls know how hard to keep yourself afloat around here. We wouldn’t be doing this if we have choice. We really admire you fighting spirit. We love how you keep living for yourself.” “No, we should be the one admiring you. Thank you for all of your kindness.” And with that we left, heading toward Ashton. Just like they said, there was arrow pointing the way to Ashton, and according to the arrows we should only be a day away from Ashton. So Hyungmin and I decides to camp for some rest. The horses were tired from all the traveling. “You look nice in the dress.” “Thanks, it’s just really uncomfortable.” “Why? Aren’t you used to wearing dress?” “Yea but now these type of dress that compresses my stomach and pushes out my chest.” “Hahah.” “What’s so funny?” “I feel really bad for Kibum, why did he fall in love with such a girl?” “Hey! I said we were not in love.” “Right, right. But shouldn’t you treat me like a man?” “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” “You don’t act like a girl around me or anyone. You’re rude, frank, and don’t value status. You’re truly one of a kind.” “Hey!” “Sorry to break up this love fest. I love over there stood Bae and ten other knight. He had a smirk on his face. I ran toward him but Hyungmin grab my arm and held me back. “Let go, Hyungmin. I need to kill this bastard.” “I’m sorry Sungmin. I really am.” “What?” “Don’t you get it? Hyungmin is working for me. He is my twin brother.” “What?” “Hyungmin is working for me.” “Hyungmin, is that true?” “I’m sorry Sungmin.” “Shut Hyungmin, zap her “ “Please don’t, we can beat Bae together. Please stop.” “He can’t, I promise to make him fall in love if he helps me, and so he won’t be turn into a toad “I’m sorry, Sungmin.” “Wait!................” -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬------------------------- “Urg…..” “You finally woke up.” “Yea…..wait-why are you here Hyungmin?” “Because Bae turn against me after I tried to save you from the mistress. He was too busy dealing with me to bring you to her.” “Thank you…..I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.” “It’s okay, I knew it would turn out like this but I chose to do it, so it as much my fault yours.” “I’m really sorry; it’s all my fault that you’re going to be turn into a toad.” “It’s okay; I won’t be turn into a toad anymore.” “Why? I thought you have to be love.” “Yea and I am.” “You’re so lucky; I wish I had enough time to save KiBum.” “You can.” “How?” “You can fall in love with me.” “What?” “If you fall love in with me, you won’t explode.” “But…..” “But what?” “I think I’m in love with KiBum. When I was out, I had a dream about how my life was so complete with KiBum. He help me throughout the years, I had fallen in love with before all of this but I never really guts to admitted it and push away from my thought. But I think it time to admit it. And now it my turn to help KiBum.” “But what if he turns you down.” “It would be okay. Even if Kibum would turn me down I would always love him.” “You love him enough to die for him?” “Yes, I know a week ago I would have denied it but now I don’t want to turn away my feeling.” “…..” “…..” “Then I should probably tell you it been six months since you been a comma.” “Stop joking, I only have been sleeping for an hour or two. And how can I be in a comma, Bae only struck my head gently, it wasn’t like he smacked me with a brick.” “Yea, but he made you drink a potion for the past six months. “What day is it?” “December 20th” “S***!” “Yea….wait, when you’re birthday.” “December 21th! S*** why did he have to wake me up so late.” “So you can be here for the wedding of course.” “Bae, why are you here?” “So, I can grab my dear brother and you to get already for the wedding. So let’s go, we only have so much till you blow up anyways. It’s going to marvelous, having such a “big boom” as the ending entertainment.” “LET GO OF ME” “Shut up or else I order you to be drowned. You can either die now or die later. Either way you going to die soon” “…….” “Get in there. Wear something nice, we don’t want anyone thinking we’re mistreating you.” “…….Shut up…..” “And Hyungmin, come with me, since you suffer enough with the witch, I asked the mistress to forgave you, so leave the castle before she spots you. I’ll look for you and during that time I’ll make peace with her” “I can’t…” “Why, don’t you want to live?” “I do, but when I leave Sungmin, my heart feels as though it being ripped apart and I can’t breathe and all I want to do is die. So I have to save her and make her fall in love with me so can’t die.” “But you can’t love, the mistress so. She said she took your heart and made you immune to the law. You can’t….” “I know what I feel, brother, And I know what I must do.” “But that witch says she in love with KiBum.” “But KiBum has forgotten about her because of the mistress. You told me that KiBum has lost his memory about Sungmin because of the magical tea. I don’t Sungmin to know, I want to her to be happy.” ‘Kibum….lost….his…..memory…of…me?” “Shit, Sungmin listen to me.” “Tell me, tell me Hyungmin. How am suppose to feel when Kibum forgot everything?” ‘It wasn’t an option. The mistress gave a magical tea that made him forget.” “So he forgot everything about us?” “…..” “Where is he, Bae? “At the Church down over there. He and the mistress is there getting married.” “I’m going to make him remember.” “Wait Sungmin, if you go down you will be killed.” “Don’t touch me Bae, if you weren’t here, I won’t be here.” Why, why did the moment I decide to fall in love. I knew that Love was trouble so why did fall in with KiBum. I have to find him. I have to make him remember me. I ran to the church with Hyungmin and Bae chasing me to try to stop me. Just a little more, I’m almost here. I’m sure as soon as KiBum sees me, he would remember. Right? “KiBum....stop you can’t marry her!” “Who are you?” “No one, love, guards take her away.” Then out of the corner of my eyes I saw Hyungmin and Bae coming behind of the bride. Hyungmin takes his sword to her throat. “Mistress, you wouldn’t be taking anyone away.” “Ha, Hyungmin so you finally decide to rebel against me. Fine, I can easily break that heart of yours.” “Mistress, you don’t know do you?” “Know what?” “The day you sent me to hurt Sungmin, a new heart begun to grow in my heart, and it knows betrays, hate, sadness, and love.” “Shit, I knew I should have killed you the day you came back.” “Here KiBum, Sungmin. Take him far away. Make him remember, and don’t die.” “Bae….thank you....I’m sorry for saying everything.” “It’s okay, I’m sorry for causing everything. Maybe we will me one day.” “Yea, definitely. “Go Sungmin.” “Hyungmin, I’m sorry for not meeting you early. I promise you in my next life, I would definitely fall in love with you!” I took KiBum hand, as confuse as he was he ran with me. I thought for a moment that he remembers but the moment we stop I knew it was too good to be true. “Who are you again? Are we playing a game?” “I’m Sungmin, the person that you said you loved.” “No, Ms. Jae is my beloved. She said so herself. She told me that a witch kept me as a slave, then one day she saw me and we fell in love. She saves me from being eaten.” “No that wrong. She is lying, we been together since I was 10. You and I, we were in love but I too stupid to know realize my feelings.” “Funny, why would I fall in love you, who looks like a servant, when I can love Ms.Jae, who is beautiful as gem.” My mind went crazy; my beloved KiBum was not him. KiBum was just another mindless idiotic prince, neither my friend nor my beloved. He changed. I left on that hill; I didn’t want him to see my death. I wish I had fallen in with Hyungmin. “I’m sorry Sungmin. I couldn’t get him away. She took him.” “Hyungmin! Are you okay? What happen?” “I saw KiBum walking toward the castle and tried to stop him. Bae and I couldn’t stop the guard. He was taken again. I’m really sorry.” “It’s okay. But what happen to you?” “It’s nothing serious. The stab isn’t that deep. I’ll just sleep for a moment and it will heal right away…..” “Hyungmin! Wake up, you can’t die. You can’t! Mae, if you can hear me please come! Please! Please!” “Yea, yea. I’m here. What do you want?” “Can I still have your good deed of the year? Please. Save that man!” “Sorry, no can do. I already gave that away. I turn a prince into frog so he could find his princess. You’ll just have to find another.” “Isn’t there anything you can do?” “Well I can give him his life but…” “But what?” “I would need something in return.” “Take anything. I’ll get whatever you need.” “Well…in order for me to give him life I would have to take yours. Which mean you will be taken back to the real world. You will never be able to come back to the Court.” “So, that means I would die?” “Yes.” “I’ll do it!” “??!!!” “You heard me, I’ll do it. Hyungmin already gave me so much. It only fair if I did the same.” “Are you sure?” “Yes!” “Okay, whatever it your decision. Any last words?” “Yea, can you tell Hyungmin that I can’t keep my promise to him.” “Sure. Now closed you eyes. Goodbye” Seoul, South Korea December 21, 2011 “Patient 201 has awakened Doctor Min.” “Thank you nurse, how is her condition?” “Heartbeat is normal, brainwaves is normal. Everything seems normal for someone who has been in a coma for 11 years.” “Miss. Sungmin, can you hear me?” “Urgg?” “Excellent! Happy 16th birthday!” “Who are you?
