A Kind Goblin’s Bird - Chapter 89

…… Unlike that woman, Court Lady Yoon couldn’t risk her own life…….

Tears fell from Court Lady Yoon’s eyes.

He must be a goblin, everyone said so……, She thought he was a goblin. So it’s natural……. It wasn’t that she didn’t love him, it wasn’t that she wanted to betray him, she just thought he was really a goblin…….

No twins are born from noble blood. For the noble blood recognizes only one existence.

So she…….

Court Lady Yoon covered her face with her hand. The invisible knife is slicing through her heart. What is more unbearable than this pain is the irreversible time. No, it is herself.

What will she do when she returns? Will she resist the Crown Prince?

Court Lady Yoon raised her head. As she counted the patterns on the dark ceiling, she eventually closed her eyes.

***

It was wrong to think it would be okay since the woman was docile and ignorant, and Court Lady Yoon realized it only two days after she woke up.

“You should have some. How can you live if you don’t eat anything?”

Court Lady Yoon had to beg and beg, but the woman barely put the food to her mouth. But she soon put down the spoon and said she didn’t want to eat.

Is there anything you want? Court Lady Yoon asked several times, and the woman asked in a very low voice as she grabbed Court Lady Yoon’s skirt.

“I will never meet Lord Heon-yeong again……?”

The woman’s eyes fluttered wildly, like someone would be offended if she heard it, or if she felt even guilty of even asking this.

For two days, she probably had this question on her chest. Court Lady Yoon could easily guess. Even though the woman knew she couldn’t meet him, she couldn’t help but ask.

She swallowed and swallowed, and when she couldn’t swallow any more, she put it in her mouth only now, when she had no choice but to spit out a thorn in the question.

“Yes.”

The woman should not meet him. The day the Empress knows that this woman is alive, everyone will die.

“…… I won’t eat it.”

“Your Highness.”

“I can die now.”

Young-young smiled softly.

Her mother said don’t die. And she wants revenge. Young-young did nothing, but her father, madam, lady, and the man all died. Her mother’s wish came true, and now she is free. It didn’t matter when Young-young died.

“How can you say that?!”

“Really.”

Young-young smiled bashfully and slowly went inside the blanket.

She didn’t want to eat or drink anything. She didn’t want to even think about it. She wanted to close her eyes. She was happiest when she fell asleep.

In her dreams, there was always Sa Heon-yeong. He was smiling happily in her dream. He called her his wife, and affectionately called her, laughing in the morning sunshine.

Someone she’ll never see again.

Will he…… forget her? After ten nights, after a hundred nights, after a thousand nights, will he ever forget her? Will he be as kind to others as he was to her?

Even when thinking like that.

It hurts. There were times when she thought it might be better to have someone to touch the wounds in her heart, and then she thought she didn’t want it, but in the end, amidst anguish and pain.

Just one more time.

I want to see you just one more time.

She didn’t even know they were were going to part. The last thing she remembers was the wide back that quickly disappears. She just wanted to see him one more time. The last thing she remembers was that beautiful and dignified face.

If possible, she wishes that she could touch those features with this hand one more time. What kind of texture it was, her memories were already fuzzy.

“Your Highness.”

Court Lady Yoon tried to comfort her and feed her, but she shook her head. Everything was bothersome.
