ANAKIN
You're not too far from me, Anakin. You never are. You're worried, watching that friend of yours, whatever her name is. Who is she, anyway?
I'm not really talking to you, though. I don't want to distract you. I tried watching her, once, when you went to check on your mother. What's wrong with her? Why must she ask if she's done anything? Why can I sometimes not feel her?
Why does she try to kill herself?
When I think about it, I think I remember seeing a Jedi resembling her, a long time ago… That was a guy, though. I guess I'm wrong.
It's when I think about that friend of yours that I feel guilty. I should have helped you. I could have set those Yuuzhan Vong on fire. I did it to clone troopers, once, when they went after my sister.
Uh… Anakin? What are you doing? Why are you… Jaina?
I'm confused! What's going on?
…Does it even matter? I don't know. I'll never know. I'll just wait. You're waiting, too, Anakin. What for? Why does your friend feel… different?
I guess we're both waiting, now, Anakin; for what? I don't know. I guess we'll find out eventually.
…Do you hear that? I think… I think I hear my great-aunt calling us…
Oh.
Author's Note:
The explanation of what they're waiting for is currently being worked on in "Comeback".
Please Review! :)
