The Life Behind The Painting
Episode 2

The situation that was previously gripping, was now a little calmer because now they were no longer near the cursed demons. A breath of relief and the chance to break from a long journey they can lose some time.

After half an hour or so they were above the sea, they finally reached the island they were headed to.

The island is part of the territory of the giant Eastern kingdom, but is uninhabited because of its place in the mountains and has belonged to the kingdom of Loesnatales which is still kept secret.

"Are all still able to walk, we can not stop before being in the mountains" said the king.

"We have had enough rest, for the salvation of all, I advise you to continue the journey."

"All right, lead them all" said the king.

"Okay, king."

This forest is still so shady, it is clear there are still many trees and rare plants along the way. The sound of birds chirping is quite clear, even deer are still seen running around when they hear their arrival.

Step by step the weakening made some people left behind to rest, their journey was indeed not stopped for their safety.

The director continued to swing his sword because of the thick grass, grass, and tree roots.The winding road and uphill made anyone who took it, limp, even the location that included the mountains showed a ravine on their left.

After a long walk, they took the time to rest a few minutes, after being convinced all could continue the journey then they resumed the journey.

Not too far from their current position, there was the sound of a waterfall flowing from the front and it was one of the routes they had to go through.

"For the women and children, this current is quite swift," shouted someone who was at the front.

The men lined up along the river they would cross to guard the women and children who would pass through it.

Not deep enough. However, the water flowing quite fast and coupled with the surrounding large rocks make them have to really pay attention to every step of the foot. If it is wrong a little will certainly slip and be carried away by the current.

Even the horse carriage forced through the river almost overturned due to the rocks it passed through.

After a few days of travel, they finally arrived at their destination. A hill with some flat land makes them easy to build a settlement.

"Don't force yourself, we have reached our destination and now rest so that tomorrow can find materials to build shelter and food" said the king.

They all went to rest, while the men distributed the leftovers they had in order to survive.

"I promise you, me or my son will reclaim our rights, I just want my family and people to live in peace," muttered the king while looking at the night sky decorated with moon and stars that look very beautiful and soothing.

the Min Kyu family home -

- Crings .. Crings .. Crings . -

The sound of the alarm just kept ringing woke up someone who had set it, so as not to wake up late and rush.

"Hoam .. Huf, it turns out that I am still in the world," muttered the wavy brunette girl who was left to unravel while stretching out her hands.

- Tok tok . -

His still-unopened eyes perfectly glanced towards the door when he heard someone knocking on him.

"SOO HYUN QUICKLY WOKE UP, ARE YOU STILL ALIVE?" shouted a man from behind the door of Soo Hyun's room.

That was their habit every Monday morning, Min Kyu always woke Soo Hyun up because she was the hardest to wake up even though the ringing of the alarm clock had sounded. But not the next day, without having to wake up Soo Hyun will definitely wake up late in the morning.

Today, is Soo Hyun's first day to return to school as a High School student in the 3/1 (three/one) year after the summer break.

.

.

.

"Hurry, it's your first day back at school" said the man from behind Soo Hyun's room door in a lazy tone.

"Yes.. Yes, I'll go take a shower right now" Soo Hyun replied.

.

.

.

Soo Hyun immediately got up to her bathroom to clean up. After completing the activity of waking up with water, he also chose clothes that hung neatly in his wardrobe.

A shirt, tie, shirt, and short knee-length skirt had been firmly attached to her body. Soo Hyun looked at her reflection behind the mirror as tall as the adult who was now in front of her.

"It looks like this uniform is starting to cramp, I have to buy a new one soon" he murmured.

After being satisfied with what he saw, he immediately went down to the 1st floor (one) and did not forget to bring a dark brown bag with a mini star decoration attached to his bag.

.

.

.

1 Floor (one) -

"WHAT'S THIS MORNING?" yelled Soo Hyun who was still on the steps.

"Fried rice, miss," said a middle-aged woman as she offered a bowl of rice and a glass of warm milk to Min Kyu.

"ASIK, NASI GORENG ALA INDONESIA" shouted Soo Hyun.

"Wait, what? Fried rice?" Soo Hyun asked listlessly.

Min Kyu glanced at his sister astonished, "Just be quiet and quickly finish your food, you will be misfortune," he said in a cold tone.

"Alright," replied Soo Hyun resigned because it had been more than 3 (three) days they always had breakfast with fried rice and a little kimchi.

.

.

.

After a few minutes, there was no sound of the spoon clashing with the plate. However, none of the two of them had started to open their voices.

"Ext?" Min Kyu asked without seeing Soo Hyun.

"No brother, I want .." Soo Hyun's words came to a halt, as she saw a man of her age walking towards them.

"Why see me like that?" said the man while taking a plate of fried rice and sitting next to Min Kyu.

"When did you come here?" Soo Hyun asked, staring fixedly at Jin Young's beads of eyes, hoping that the man would say that he only stopped by for a while.

"That uniform?" he continued pointing at Jin Young and making his hopes disappear instantly.

"Why?" Jin Young asked a glance at Soo Hyun as she devoured her food without taking a look from Soo Hyun.

"You go to school here too?" Soo Hyun asked.

"Yes, why? I will also stay here" Jin Young said with a smile looking at Min Kyu and turned to Soo Hyun.

"What's? Why does he live here, then why is his school where I go, too, sis," suhy Soo Hyun complains because since childhood he was always upset by Jin Young and hopes this time Jin Young will not upset him.

"Because his parents asked him to stay here, he was also close to school" said Min Kyu then gulped down his drink.

"Here you go, you know the way?" Min Kyu asked a glance at Jin Young.

"Yes, you already know," Jin Young replied and stood up.

"We're leaving" he continued, pulling Soo Hyun's arm and pulling her out of the house.
