Chapter 103: Letters:

"Princess Camilla," greeted Ryan as I looked at him. I gestured for him to get up and asked "How did you know I was here? I don't remember telling you who I was," I muttered "Oh I knew before. I mean it wasn't hard to guess your identity," exclaimed Ryan. 

"So why did you come to the palace?" I asked as Alice poured him some tea. "Well, I haven't heard from you in so long so I decided to come and see you. I was worried something might have happened to you since you didn't reply to my letter," he explained sitting down. "Oh so sorry, I have been so busy these days. I don't think I saw your letter. I read it when I get back," I replied pouring him some tea. 

Ryan didn't say anything. Instead, he placed a hand on my head and muttered, "You look very tired, but you're not sick,". I blushed and removed his hand. "Don't," I mumbled. He immediately apologised "Oh sorry, I forgot to ask you if you minded,". I wasn't a big fan of touchy-touchy things. "It's ok," I mumbled. 

"Apart from checking on you, I'm here to say goodbye," he muttered. "Where are you going," I immediately asked. "Oh, I'm just going back to the academy. The school break is over and I need to return back to school. So we won't be able to see each other anymore. Also, I want to personally thank you for helping me," he explained. "It's no biggy. I would have helped any random person," I replied.

"But for me, you are not just any random person," he mumbled. What's with this atmosphere? It's as if there are love bubbles in the air. What he said is a bit weird. "Of course, I'm not. I'm the princess of the Theodo Kingdom," I uttered dismissing this atmosphere. "Mhh," he moaned in agreement, but somehow I didn't sound convinced.

Sometime later in the future, Camilla will remember this very moment with a different feeling. She will finally understand what he means. But that is for later.

"You will write won't you?" he asked as I nodded. "Of course, I will write to you as you my friend," I muttered smiling. We both smiled at each other and laughed. Ryan left not long later whilst I stayed in the garden. I was too tired for this.

I'm not sure what happened but I must have fallen asleep as I had a very weird dream: 

"Who am I?" a voice mumbled as a lady smiled and muttered, "Aaron, remove your hand,". The man laughed and said "I'm not Aaron," before removing his hand. "It is you," she laughed spacking him. "Why are you here?" a lady asked. "Well, I came to find you," he replied. 

The lady had wavy golden/blue hair that seemed to be glowing as she spoke. Yet I couldn't to see who 'Aaron' looked like. Am I looking at my past life memory? I suppose this dream would make sense. However, before I could continue dreaming a voice woke me up. 

"Princess, princess," Alice shook me as I woke up. "Sorry, did I fall asleep here?" I muttered as she nodded. "I couldn't pick you up, so I can only call you awake and get you to sleep in your room," she explained as I nodded. 

"Greetings to the little star of the kingdom," Damian muttered. I suppose during these few days he must have learnt some manners and etiquette. "Mr Damian Ellis," I acknowledge laughing, "Please take a seat," as he sat down. "Princess, how are your lessons going?" he asked. "You heard about it from Uncle Robert?" I replied as he nodded. "Well not great and tiring," as he laughed. 

"I suppose you just have to get used to it. Right, I'm also here to say goodbye," he explained, "The Royal Academy is going to start again. So, I need to leave for school,". As I nodded. "Ok, I wish you luck. Remember to write about your school life," I ordered as he nodded. 

"Then the next time we will see each other is during your birthday celebration," he suggested as I nodded. "Yes," I replied. "Then we will see each other then," he mumbled whilst I waved him goodbye. 

The next time we all meet again all of us will be different. In 2 months it will be February and then it will be the first time I will be shown in front of the rest of the kingdom.
