Rhiannon stumbled into her bedroom after the Senatorial meeting. She collapsed onto her bed crying into her pillow.
Are you alright M'lady? Stayelle' was immediately there to comfort her, but Rhia didn't want her help. Her handmaidens were paid to comfort and entertain politicians. Stayelle's comfort felt fake.
Just leave Stayelle'
No M'lady! Just tell me what is wrong.
Stayelle' you are dismissed! Rhia's voice became firmer and she knew her handmaiden had gotten the point. Her mind went once more to the meeting. Her mind trailed off to just a day before the current.....
Why do you have to leave again? Why can't you just stay here with me?
I wish I could my love, but you know I am needed in the Order.Rister's words were true, but Rhia didn't want him to have to leave again. The last time he went off to war she had heard of explosions that he had been involved in, and she was truly afraid.
I know.She smiled weakly at him Go do your thing.He had smiled back at her in such a loving way, she found herself wishing she never had to leave him, or him her. She ran over and practically fell into his arms. She buried her face in his soft Jedi robes and took pleasure in the moment....
Rhia came back to the present, her face buried in her pillow and her eyes raw from crying. It all had seemed so perfect the day before. What had happened? She could not quite make herself understand yet.
What have you done my love? Why have you done this to me?
