"HeartAche"
Anakin stared at Padme who was sitting across the other side of the table. Anakin wondered why she was acting like this. After all just a few moments ago she was so happy to see him. He could not understand why her lips were'nt bent into her usual smile. Instead it was forming an extremely less attractive frown.
"Anything wrong Paddy?" Anakin asked
"No." Padme said hesitantly
"Spit it out. I know you're hiding something." Anakin said
"Later." Padme motioned to the plates full of food in front of him "After dinner."
"Alright." Anakin said
Anakin watched his angel eat slowly and uneasily. He did'nt like seeing her like this but nevertheless Anakin continued on munching his Ore-shik imported chicken. After dinner Anakin let Padme sit silently and quietly. Anakin grew restless and uneasy not to mention curious. He desperately wanted to know what was bothering his wife.
"Dinner's over Padme. Now spill." Anakin said with only the slightest bit of contempt
"...I...we..." Padme started but failed
"What?" Anakin asked gently
"We can't be together!There I said it!" Padme yelled hysterically "You forced me into this marriage!I knew I should never had given in to you!Because of this I'm stuck between politics and a family!I know very well I can't handle both without letting the other feel neglected at a time!Anakin I know you have never minded rules but I do! I know this hurts but I really can't leave the senate in this state. With this stupid and pointless war going on I just do'nt have any time left for family time. Anakin... I'm sorry but we just were'nt meant to be..."
Anakin sat there staring at that beautiful young wife of his. Did this mean she did not love him anymore? Anakin felt like breaking down right there in front of her. Struggling to think Anakin tried to win her back oncemore.
"We could ask Threepio or Artoo to help." Anakin suggested miserably
"Yes but they have other duties too. R2 has to help on my ship and 3PO the house. Besides the children need more than love.They need parents who they can trust to always be there." Padme reasoned out
"What about the kids?" Anakin asked bitterly "Do'nt you want them?"
"OF COURSE I want them but...We just can't give them everything they want to have. Money is not a problem but since you and I will be gone most of the time the thing they will want most will be loving parents." Padme said sadly
"So who WILL take care of them?" Anakin his voice trembling
"Oh Anakin do'nt look at me like that. I guess Luke will go to the Jedi Temple and Leia to the Alderaanian Student Legislatory Program." Padme said "Bail could adopt Leia...I'm one hundred percent sure that she will be happy there. She has been there before has'nt she?"
"Yeah...Loved it way more than Luke did." Anakin mumbled
"And I've heard Luke's ambitions to be just like you Anakin. He will make a fine Jedi." Padme said
"I'm sure he will." Anakin said looking down at his feet
"Look Anakin I know this separation is hard but...Jedi should never marry." Padme said "You can take your time walking to the door." And with that Padme left the room.
"See you.I love you...And I'll miss you." Anakin said quietly

Luke was worried about his Father. Lately his father had been leaving the house for long periods of time. Sure there was this huge Republic war but somehow he could tell it had nothing to do with the war. Luke thought that it had something to do with that beautiful young woman on the HoloNett. He had watched his father beam proudly at the woman as she went bravely on with her big and complicated speeches. Sometimes Anakin would turn off themonitor and then cry in front of a portrait the young lady. Luke then heard a deep rumbling coming from the landing pad. He could tell that was the engine of his father's double turbo light speeder. Luke ran hurriedly to the balcony to watch his father land. Luke watched patiently as Anakin skillfully landed that huge speeder. Luke could see Anakin's silhouette in the cockpit. Luke found his super binoculars and focused it on his father only to see his father bent over on the controls crying.

Anakin slammed at the control board hard. He felt his warm tears flow down his face. Yes he knew Padme was right about their marriage. That this was totally illegal and WRONG. but he could not bear to the fact that he had just been rejected by his beautiful angel and that he had to give away his son and daughter to men like Organa or Windu. Rejection was something Anakin Skywalker was not accustomed to. But yes Padme was right about the fact both of them could not always be near his children. After all he had just gotten a call that he and Obi-Wan were to lead three clone squads into a possible space fight near one of the moons of Gibraltarr. He was sure they would be gone for five to thirteen months. Maybe this decision was for the best. And with that Anakin opened the cockpit door and wlaked back to his summer home.
