Finding Mei

5 years ago, after Luke left for the military...

While Amara was secretly going to Mei's room to surprise her for her birthday, Amara heard Mei badmouthing her.

Amara barged in her room and yelled "Mei! What did you just say?! Did I just hear you say you hated me and you just pretended to be my friend?" Mei was surprised when Amara barged in the room, so Mei said "Amara.. what are you doing here...?" Amara shouted "Answer me Mei! Did I hear it right?" Mei shouted back "Fine! I'll tell you. Everything you heard was correct! I hate you! I just pretended to be your friend because I like Luke and I needed a place to stay. As for the engagement with Charles, he and I teamed up to try to make you and Luke break up. Now are you satisfied with my answer?"

Amara began crying and said "What have I done to offend you? Why must you treat me this way? I didn't know you liked Luke. You never told me." Mei responded "I'm tired of this! Your just the daughter of the Anderson family but I'm a princess! Why do you always get all the good things?!" Mei then walked out.

When Amara tried to run after Mei, she tried to grab Mei's arm, but ended up grabbing her hair causing the wig to fall down. When the wig fell down, Amara saw Mei's red hair and was shocked. Mei didn't realize that Amara got her wig, so she kept running. Amara then realized that Mei is the princess of Esmond.

After five months of searching for Mei, Mei couldn't be found anywhere. Amara started worrying and couldn't forget what happened the last time she saw Mei. The red hair symbolizes that she is a princess from the kingdom of Esmond.

Amara then said "That's what happened. She was actually a princess of the kingdom of Esmond. She hid her identity for so long. She even wore a wig just to hide her red hair." Luke responded "She might be a spy. Isn't it that the kingdom of Esmond and Asteris are rivals?"

Charles interrupted "That's right, but according to Amara, Mei stayed at Asterin because of you. She liked you ever since the day you met." Luke was surprised. He didn't know that Mei was that obsessed with him. Amara asked "What do we do now?" Luke said "I think we shouldn't worry about her anymore. She probably went back to her own kingdom and she's the one that's been harming you. Why worry about her?"
