Chapter 20
"So tell me what is this all about?" I asked once we enter my chambers. "although what I personally want to know is how is Andrial doing, I do miss her so."
"You just had to say that, just to make it harder on me to tell you what I have came here to tell you!"
"Anna what are you talking about? Did something happen that you are not telling me about?"
"It's your beloved princess, or should I say your Queen of Dirt!"
"Hold your tongue, you are talking about the future Queen of Mirkwood!"
"That is just it, she is not the future Queen of Mirkwood because she is calling off the wedding Legolas. She does not want to marry you!"
"How dare you spread these lies Annadel! Cousins or not, you have no right to say things that are not true!"
"Fine, do not believe me! As your cousin I would never lie to you, but you obviously are to stuck up on love to believe me. Well you should be receiving a letter from your precious Andrial. I know what it says and believe me, you are not going to like it!"
"Leave Anna, now! Just go, I do not wish to discuss this with you no more. I know her, she promised to come back, and she will you hear me? Just leave me alone!"
"Fine, do not come running to me when she breaks your heart, and believe me that is what she is going to do! You know you two deserve each other in your own sick way. The both of you refuse to listen to truth and reasoning, but instead you throw away the only person that actually cares about you!" She walked out the door and slammed it behind her.
What if she is right, what if I am going to get a letter with such hurtful meaning to it. No, she promised she would return, so I am going to uphold her to that.
:*~That night at the evening meal~*:
After the encounter with Anna earlier, I have felt a pain in my heart all evening. I know she always tells the truth, but my heart wants to believe that she is making this whole think up. I remained to myself the entire night, I did not even find it in my strength to fight Lila off, but something tells me she got the message that I wanted no company. I felt even worst inside when I noticed at the being of our even meal that Anna did not attend. She must really be hurt that I had called her a liar, but what was I suppose to do just let her talk about the one person I have ever loved. Besides she was wrong, I have yet to receive a letter from Andrial, which part of me was grateful and the other part longing to hear from her.
"Are you alright son?" My father said while he interrupted my thoughts.
"Yes, father. I am a little tired!" I answered truthfully.
"I heard Annadel was back in the forest, have you seen her?"
"Yes I have father!"
"Oh good, now you will have some one else to hang around with instead of the god-awful friend of yours!"
"Actually we had a bit of a disagreement. I do not even know if she is still in the forest!"
"What!? You two had an argument? That is certainly not like either one of you. Tell me what was the subject of your argument?"
"Father, out of due respect, I rather not talk about it. At least not right now in front of our guest."
"Very well, but we must talk about this after dinner!"
"Yes, father!" I sighed once again.
Things were going good at the evening meal. As I sat content in my seat, I watch how all the elf couples pared off onto the dance floor. I felt another pain in my heart when I realized I had no one to pair off with. Now that Andrial is home in Lothlorien, I obviously can not dance with her. But before I met Andrial, Anna and I always danced together at evening meals. Now I do not even have that either. I was about to retire to my quarters when suddenly the music stop as well as the people dancing.
"Your Highness. An urgent letter from Lothlorien has arrived for Prince Legolas. I was given strict instructions that I am to leave it in the hands of the Prince only from the Princess Andrial!"
"So tell me what is this all about?" I asked once we enter my chambers. "although what I personally want to know is how is Andrial doing, I do miss her so."
"You just had to say that, just to make it harder on me to tell you what I have came here to tell you!"
