Chorong stared at Taehyung or occasionally glanced at him. Taehyung was still deep in thought 'who is this girl?' or 'how did she end up on shore?'.

Jungkook ,on the other hand, was invisible to both of them. He watched them walk to the palace together, he sighed. "I wish that Ursula took my voice too, but if she did, I never would have met Chorong" he said quietly.

Suddenly, something felt wrong inside. He had the feeling something happened in 'Alice in Wonderland'. Jungkook immediately went back for a quick second.

He appeared back in his house and found Sanha and Moonbin under his dining room table. "What are you two doing there?" he whispered. Sanha and Moonbin smiled widely when they saw him "hyung!" they whispered.

"Why are you whispering?" Jungkook asked "the queen is outside, she's pissed to know that you weren't here yet but I'm here" explained Sanha. "Please do something hyung, we're scared" said Moonbin.

Jungkook sighed and snapped his fingers, the door to 'The Little Mermaid' appeared and Jungkook said "go watch over Chorong, I'll handle the queen". Sanha and Moonbin nodded and ran into the door.

Jungkook put on a straight face and opened the door. The queen looked furious "how did you get inside?" she asked. "The back door was open, what is wrong your majesty?" Jungkook asked.

"Tell me where the girl is" the queen said. "What girl? There are very few females in this fairytale your majesty" said Jungkook. "You know exactly what girl I speak of" said the queen. "Sanha was the only person in this house, I can assure you of that but he left through the back door" explained Jungkook.

"If I find a girl not from this fairy tale or any of her allies, I'll have all of your heads. Do you understand Mr. Rabbit?" said queen Irene with a strict voice. The queen left and Jungkook slowly closed the door.

Jungkook sighed as he sat on his couch "AAArrrrrgghhh!!" he grabbed a fistfull of hair in his hand in frustration. Why does the queen want her? The thought had Jungkook so curious, but priorities are priorities, he has to keep Chorong safe and away from the queen.

BACK WITH CHORONG........

"So, she has to wait for the prince to kiss her in three days?" Moonbin asked Sanha who watched her from afar in the palace. "Yeah, that's how this story goes. If she doesn't get kissed by that prince then she'll go back to being a mermaid forever. But she can't speak, that's the catch" explained Sanha.

"Can we help her?" Moonbin asked. Sanha shook his head, "that crab will be the one to help her, all we can do is make sure he doesn't screw up".

Chorong was being groomed by the maids while Taehyung explained to the King/ his father, about how he found her on the shore just there and how she could be the girl that saved him.

"Wait, you think that girl saved you? I thought you said you heard her voice then you say that girl is mute!" The king looked confused. "I know dad, but, she seems like the one. I just know it" said Taehyung.

The King shook his head "I don't know son, but for the meantime, let's just take care of this girl and help her regain her memories. Show her around town, maybe it'll help her remember a few things".

The King walked away from Taehyung and left him in the throne room. Taehyung sighed "maybe, I'll just help her and I'll remember who saved me too!". He tried to cheer himself up, hoping it would distract him from feeling distressed by the thought of who saved him.

Chorong was done being groomed by the maids and they handed her a simple blue dress with dark blue flats.

Chorong put it on and put her hair in a ponytail

Chorong put it on and put her hair in a ponytail. She smiled at her reflection then she heard a knock on the door. She opened the door since she can't say 'it's open!'. Taehyung was at the door "hey, is it okay if I showed you around the town?" he asked while scratching his neck.

He was a little bit at awe with how she looked, Chorong smiled a bit and nodded. Taehyung smiled and said "shall we?" he offered his hand to her and Chorong gladly accepted it.

Moonbin and Sanha ,on the other hand, were fangirling while watching the way Taehyung smiled at Chorong. "OH MAI GAHD!!!" Moonbin shouted while holding his cheeks. "I CAN'T WAIT FOR WHEN HE KISSES HER!!!" Sanha yelled while grabbing his head.

Jungkook was not having much fun while waiting for Chorong to finish the story. She will take three days long in 'The Little Mermaid'. Jungkook was getting anxious just waiting for some reason. He immediately took a sticky note and wrote 'will be back in three days'. Then stuck the note on the front door, as well as the back door.

Jungkook snapped his fingers and made the door he needed appear. He walked right through it and ended up next to the fangirling Moonbin and Sanha.

Because the two were fangirling so much, the didn't notice Jungkook behind them. They both slowly looked back "HYUNG!". They gasped and stopped fangirling. Jungkook smirked and asked "where are they now?".

"They're walking around the town, it's annoying that she can't speak. He'd be in love with her when she hears her voice, he'd be under a spell just by it. Besides, she probably would've said something that would make his heart flutter" said Moonbin with a scoff.

"Wait hyung, didn't you make a deal with the octopus lady too?" Moonbin asked Jungkook. Jungkook sighed "Yeah, I did". Sanha's eyes widened "really? Why? You know the conditions she asks for right?" he said. "I was desperate, you remember Zelda, I was in love. Love made me desperate" Jungkook said with a sigh.

Sanha smiled at Jungkook "you have Chorong now anyways he he" he nudged Jungkook with his elbow but Jungkook shook his head. "That can't happen, we're from two different worlds. It'll kill her" Jungkook said as he watched Chorong pet a Taehyung's white fluffy dog.

Chorong smiled as she hugged the dog that licked her face. Taehyung smiled at how much the dog was enjoying her company. "Do you like dogs?" Taehyung asked. Chorong looked up to Taehyung and nodded then patted Soonshim's head.

"Do you remember anything about your life before we met?" Taehyung asked. Chorong shrugged, and stood up. She stared at the sea that was in her sight and smiled at Taehyung. "I wish you could speak, because this feels like you don't like what I'm saying at all" Taehyung chuckled to himself.

Chorong shook her head "wait you don't like what I'm saying?" Taehyung asked. Chorong shook her head "so you do like what I'm saying". Chorong nodded and put her hand on his shoulder then patted her chest with her other hand. Meaning she's saying he can trust her.

"I hope I really can trust you" Taehyung smiled at Chorong. Chorong nodded and pointed at the sea, "do you want to go there?" Chorong nodded. The sun was setting, maybe that's why she wanted to go there.

Taehyung smiled in the sight of the sunset and said "Soonshim, let's go". His dog accompanied both of them as they walked to the beach.

"I'm excited" Moonbin said as he watched them. "You think they'll kiss already?" Sanha asked anticipating for what will happen next. Jungkook just watched them quietly, not saying a single word. Good Luck Chorong he said in his head.
