Note 31

Seven years after the Naboo invasion

One year later

Padme,

Yet another year has passed and now we're 21. Your mother must be pleased that you have a boyfriend, but are you engaged to him yet?

I was very pleased to see that you had your own apartments in the Palace!!!! You're finally on your own! How do you like it?

What has been going on in the Senate recently? I know that you are keeping up with it…and just think, in two years you will actually be old enough to be in it!

I'm glad that you and Yuro have been doing well. If anything serious comes of your relationship, you must let me know about it right away! So he's having trouble with another company? That's not good. You said you didn't know the extent of the details at the time that you wrote me last year. Maybe you've learned more by now? I HOPE you have learned more by now.

Oh!!!!! Yuro sister, Alrain was pregnant? She must have had her child by now. Is it a boy or a girl? What did she name it? Tell her that I am excited for her!!!!

I agree; baby Gungans are odd-looking, but cute at the same time. Jar-Jar's baby is growing. I hope that he didn't inherit the clumsiness.

Okay….so Mark and Nia have had a hard start, but I am glad they are together! You must let me know how they're doing right now!!!!

I'm glad that Krilien is doing better, but I was UPSET that he and Daria broke up!!!! They were so good together! Did you ever find out what it was that caused the breakup? Is there any chance of them getting back together?

Well as soon as you're ready for the step of engagement, let me know!!!!! I HAVE to know all about it!

Oh good……Leilana and Veren are finally together!!!!!! It sounds like everyone you know is matched up very nicely, and I'm happy for all of them.

I'm glad you found Ella a job. Does she like it?

What is Relia's husband's name? I don't believe you told me.

I'm jealous of Yuro's talent. You know the way I draw things….my cats turn out to look like cows, and my fish look like blobs. He'll have to show me his work sometime. I really want to see it all!!!!!!!!

Kinno is cute. Does he get annoying sometimes? He seems nice enough though.

Well until next year's correspondence,
Your best friend Sabe
