Chapter 22

I couldn't stand it. I just couldn't stand it. How could he be looking at her like that? Why couldn't he be looking at me like that? He loved me. He rescued me,not her. I'm the one that he should love!

I feel so dead right now. I should die right now. No one would care. Paris just did this so he could tell me once and for all that he doesn't love me anymore. I was just too stupid to realize it. God help me. Someone just help me please!

After breakfast I went back to my room. I didn't feel like talking to anyone. There was no word on Hector yet. I didn't want to fear the worst yet. He can't die now,I thought. He has too much to live for. What about this son and his wife? They need him the most right now.

Something had told me Achilles was going to kill Hector no matter what. I didn't want to say anything to Andromache. Getting her upset right now wouldn't be the smartest thing. He'll come back,I thought. He's going to be ok. He's going to come back and everything is going to be just fine. I just need to keep thinking positive.

"Lady Kikyo....?"it was Andromache.

"Yes?"

"Have you heard anything yet?"

I shook my head. "No,I have not."

She smiled. "I wish they would just hurry up. I miss Hector. Our son does too."

I know,I thought. I want this all to be over too...I want that girl to go home so Paris can love me again.

"I know how much you want her to leave..."

"What?"

"They were upsetting you at breakfast weren't they?"

"It doesn't matter anymore. Paris loves her now. I don't care anymore."

"You looked pretty upset."

"I'm fine. I just want to be alone..."

"All right then,"and she left.

I shook my head. I just wish things were the way they were. I wish they my parents had never died so I could find love back in my old country. I miss it so much. Maybe I should just go back. I just wish someone would help me now. That's all I need is help.

Why is everyone so worried about me? They should be worried about Hector. What if Achilles kills him? What will happen then? I just wish he would come home so everything would be all right. I don't want war,I want peace. I'm tired of all this fighting.

Whisper

By:Evanescence

Catch me as I fall
Say you're here and it's all over now
Speaking to the atmosphere
No one's here and I fall into myself
This truth drives me
Into madness
I know I can stop the pain
If I will it all away

Chorus:
Don't turn away
(Don't give in to the pain)
Don't try to hide
(Though they're screaming your name)
Don't close your eyes
(God knows what lies behind them)
Don't turn out the light
(Never sleep never die)

I'm frightened by what I see
But somehow I know
That there's much more to come
Immobilized by my fear
And soon to be
Blinded by tears
I can stop the pain
If I will it all away

Chorus

Fallen angels at my feet
Whispered voices at my ear
Death before my eyes
Lying next to me I fear
She beckons me
Shall I give in
Upon my end shall I begin
Forsaking all I've fallen for
I rise to meet my end
