"It's not that easy," Isabella said, "You guys don't understand! Even Mom is asking me, "Is he worth all the baggage that comes with him"? Is the answer a yes or a no? Well, it's not that easy!"
"Yes, I understand it's not easy, but you need to arrive at the conclusion some day," Jessica said.
"I love him," she said, "If he was a normal guy, I wouldn't have any problems with him. Like, I wouldn't have a single doubt about him!"
"But... He's not just a normal guy," Jessica said, "He's someone very important."
"Yes, he is," she said, "And he's very proud of it. I honestly thought I'd be ready for this some day, but I'm not sure now..." she said, "I don't think I belong there. Like, even his Dad thinks I'm not a good match for him, and I kind of agree with him... But he loves me... " she said.
"Which is what matters," Jessica said.
"I know... I mean, Edward and I discussed a lot about me being the princess, and eventually the queen consort some day... But after coming back from there, I'm so confused!"
Okay?
But she didn't mention anything to me!
Was it because she didn't want to give me any more stress?
"I mean, I'm not able to see myself as queen..." she said.
I sighed.
I knew this transition was going to be difficult for her.
"His mother is so elegant, and so balanced, and classy!" she said, "But she also belonged to another royal family. They all know this shit since they were born... How was I going to fit into that just like that!"
Her concerns were valid. But she'd get every help required. I'd make sure of that!
"And I'm just twenty two!" she said, "Once I move there, my life is over!"
No, it didn't have to be like that!
"Damn, I love him, but I wish he was just a regular guy from the states!" she said.
"But he is not," Jessica said.
"Yeah... He is not," she said. "To be honest, I don't know why they still have the monarchy! I mean it's so stupid!"
'Stupid'!
Okay!
"Their people... To be honest, I found them a bit stupid. They could do something about abolishing this stupid system, but no! They adore the royals as if they're Gods or something! They look up to them! I mean, I can't imagine right now them treating me like that someday!"
Okay, so my people were 'a bit stupid'!
"Goddess Isabella Cullen," Jessica said.
"Shut up!" Isabella laughed.
"How do they offer curtsy?" Jessica said, "Like this?"
"No... Do like this... Yeah, yeah, like that..." Isabella said.
"Her royal highness," Jessica said.
"Shut up!" Isabella said, "See! Like, it's so stupid!"
I wanted to hear more, but I didn't think I had the strength for that, so I just disconnected the call.
She had given me a lot to think about!
