“I will forgive your discourtesy,” she said. “I will pretend nothing happened–”

“Mistake?” He interrupted her generous words. His face was expressionless. “I have never been mistaken. Not once, from the first moment I met you until now.”

Leah was silent. She should call the guards to punish this intruder, but she kept hesitating. She didnt want to.

“Remember me, Leah,” the man said seriously, and she looked at him, bewildered because it sounded as if he were asking her to remember moments that didnt even exist rather than this moment now. The voices of attendants suddenly broke the tense, eerie silence between them.

—Princess! Princess!

The voices were approaching. Frowning slightly, the man handed her the umbrella, and Leah took it automatically. He grabbed the tip of her chin.

“Ill give you the first clue.” He said arrogantly. “Im Ishakan, the King of Kurkan.”

“……!”

Leahs eyes widened.

“Remember me,” the man with golden eyes whispered again. And as soon as the words left his mouth, he disappeared.

Startled, Leah looked around, but he had disappeared in a blink; there was no trace of him anywhere. The only proof that it hadnt been a dream was the umbrella in her hand.

She felt as if she were waking up from some strange possession. Holding her umbrella in the pouring rain, she stood unmoving before the fountain for a while before she finally set off. She came across one of the attendants after only a short time, and he ran toward her with a worried expression, grabbing her umbrella.

She couldnt help looking regretfully at it after he took it from her. There were many similar umbrellas in the palace, but for some reason she wanted that one.
