(briseis and Achilles)

Achilles looked hard on her.

"I am Achilles and I am not an illusion."

Achilles whispered. Briseis heart leaped up to her throat. Tears were forming in the corner of her eyes. She does not know what to say.

"what is your name?"

Briseis could not believed what she just heard. Has he forgotten about me? Or has he lost his memory? Somehow deep inside her felt relief knowing he does not remember her. But, another part of her wants to scream to him and cry.

"briseis"

Achilles was shocked something deep with in him says he knows her. But, then again it could never be.

"briseis"

Achilles whispered. Briseis closed her eyes. Hearing her name out of his mouth wants to make her explode. But, she knew that the gods has given her another chance to be back to her normal life. Not the betrayer of her country.

"I must go."

Briseis stood up and ran. Achilles was frozen he does not want her to leave yet. He sat there all alone thinking of the feelings she just given him. Looking at his hands he remembered how soft her skin was. He closed his eyes remembering her face. up in the balcony andromache stood there shocked at who she just saw. She wanted to leap from the balcony and kill the man. But, the moment she saw him talk to briseis she could see how soft and gentle his voice were. How she touch her cousin so softly. Just like the way hector does to her and then she could see that both were in love. She turned and left the balcony.

(briseis) She ran while her tears were flowing down her face freely. She has finally reached her room. When she entered she flopped down on her bed and cried. Someone knocked on her door she quickly wiped her tears away.

"come in"

It was andromache. Briseis held her breath. Not knowing the reason why she wanted to see her.

"I saw him"

Andromache said but it was just barely a whisper. Briseis eyes went big. Scared of what andromache might do.

"I saw how he looked at you. How he touched you and how gentle he was to you."

Andromache move to sit beside briseis and took her hands with hers.

"I know what is love when I see it and I have just seen it. No one could blame you when you fall in love. Now I know why you fallen for him. Like I have fallen for hector. I am sorry I should not have judge you. We are sisters. And sisters understand each other. For worse or better!"

Briseis was touched by andromache's words. She hugged her and andromache hugged her back. Briseis cried.

"oh, andromache how could hector forgive me for what I have done? I have loved his killer!"

"hector loves you as a sister. May your sin on him be great or not he will always welcome you back in his arms. Were he will always protect you and love you."

"and troy?"

"it's just like what hector said: "troy is a mother to us all". And a mother would always forgive it's children."

"oh, andromache! I have always looked up to you as my big sister. But, what should I do when I know that he is alive? Should I return to him or should I take this chance to be a betrayer no longer."

"follow your heart dear briseis"

Andromache hugged briseis one last time and went to attend to her astyanax. Briseis thought about what andromache had said to her. Follow your heart. She sighed should I go back to him or will I take this chance. Besides he does not remember me why should I return to him when there is nothing left for me in him. With that she drifted asleep.

(Achilles)

He went back to his tent and lay in his bed thinking of the girl he just met.

"briseis"

He whispered her name. he tossed in his bed thinking where he heard that name before. What this feelings she has given him.

(briseis)

The sun was peeking through her curtains. She moaned softly not wanting to wake up yet.

"a heavy sleeper, I see!"

She jolted up from her bed seeing mynes seated at the corner.

"how long have you been there?"

"since I woke up"

"what do you want?!"

Briseis was shocked. She did not intend to be rude.

"I....i am sorry. I did not mean to....."

"I understand princess. I myself am a little bit cranky when I wake up. Forgive for my rudeness I should have waited for your awakening"

"yes, you are right. You should have waited for my awakening. May I know what you are doing here, my lord?"

"ah, yes! I am here to inform you we are leaving."

Briseis eyes went big.

"wh...what do you mean....."

"we are leaving now. Your people have already finish packing we are going to my homeland. I think you have no choice. But, then again king antelous is giving a choice. To stay here or to leave with us, with your people."

Briseis sighed . she knew that this was the choice of the gods....or was it?

"I'll be joining you soon."

"perfect! Oh and princess I would be delighted if you would join me with dinner tonight."

"I would be delighted as well."

With that mynes smiled at her satisfied and with a quick nod he left. Briseis flopped down to her bed. Thinking.

Have I done the right choice? Shall I never see Achilles again? Perhaps, we were never meant to be together.

(Achilles)

It was still night and for the first time he dreamed. He dreamed of something. An answer to all his question.

It was dark.

"am I still your captive?"

"you are my guest?"

"in troy guest can leave whenever they want to."

"would you now?"

"when will you leave this battle?"

"when will you leave troy?"

And then the settings change there he was kneeling in front of briseis.

"it's alright."

"no!"

"you have given me peace in a lifetime of war."

Then slowly the settings drifted away. There he was in an empty tent with odyseeus.

"are you certain you don't remember this briseis? She is after all the reason why you wanted to give up everything you have ever wanted."

"she is just a mere girl. No girl is important to me. Everyday I could have more than one just to warm my bed. And in the morrow I toss them aside. Besides what does this briseis have that others don't"

Once again he found himself lying on the bed with briseis on his side.

"what difference am I to the others? Am I just not like them."

"no, you are very different from all others. Your courage, your arrogance and your beauty. I found no other girl who has ever challenged me the way you did. And for that I was drawn close to you."

Then he saw himself standing in the middle of the sand and there she saw slowly drifting away from him. He ran after her but she was getting farther away. Then she heard her last words.

"goodbye, Achilles"

Achilles jolted up from his sleep. He was sweating a lot. His breath was shallow. It was already morning. Shouts of man were heard from the outside. He dressed himself and went out to see what the commotion was all about.

"young men! What is this about?"

"the Trojans are leaving with prince mynes, my lord!"

Realization hit him. Trojans.....briseis! he ran as fast as he could. I must not let her go! Now that I know who she is!

(briseis)

She was already aboard. Everyone was. She looked at the far distance hoping to see him. But, it was impossible. He has forgotten her. She has made the right choice. The ship started moving.

"have you followed your heart, briseis?"

Briseis turned to see andromache holding astyanax in her arms. She smiled at her and kissed astyanax forehead. She took a deep breath before answering.

"yes, I have followed my heart."

"good! Won't you come join me and astyanax for lunch.

"I will"

Andromache smiled and turned away leaving briseis with her thoughts. Have I really followed my heart? Or my pride? She was about to turn away when something or someone caught her eye. It was him. He was running to the port. Then he stopped at the edge of the ocean. Where he can no longer walk. Where he can no longer reach her. She looked at him hard. Then at the top his lungs he shouted.

"briseis!"

Her heart skipped. He remembered me! She closed her eyes. She knew what she must do. She raised her hands and waived to him and whispered.

"goodbye"
