Sabe,
Don't be too hard on Anakin with having a crush on me. He is just a little boy, you know. I felt bad for having to lie to him about me being the Queen, but there wasn't anything else I could do. Maybe now he'll realize that there's no way we can never be together. I mean, come on, he's just a little kid. I am five years older than him and that is way too old for him.
I don't understand why the Council didn't take Anakin either. How can a nine-year-old be dangerous? That doesn't make any sense to me. Well...I don't know what's going to happen to him now. Maybe he'll stay on Naboo with us or go back to his mother...I really don't know. He hasn't really said what he wants to do. Don't make it sound like you're so annoyed by him, I know you like him at least a little bit. It's hard not to like Anakin, at least I think so.
I don't know what to think with Senator Palpatine being elected now and I don't know who to trust, him or Senator Antilles. Both have been very kind and supportive to me but both have their own reasons for doing so. I don't know why but it doesn't surprise me that Senator Palpatine would say what he did. He just seems like he's not being completely honest about anything and now I'm starting to regret my decision in listening to him.
Again, I can't tell you how sorry I am about Han. If there's anything at all that I can do, please let me know. I will help you anyway that I can. No one deserves to be separated from their child and I'll do anything to help that I can.
Everything you said about love and marriage sounded wonderful but I don't see how I can have that with the profession that I have. I just don't see how it would work. I know I'm still young but I just don't see it in my future like that.
I know what you mean. Anakin is more useful that anyone ever thought he could be. I hope Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon can stop that Sith lord. Good luck my friend. I'll see you after the battle.
Padme
