6 months later...

I was in my room packing to leave for Coruscant. After six months on Naboo, I was going to another planet for the first time. My parents heard about what happened in the arena, the Jedi Council told them.

They excused me from my mission until the story was over, which is certainly not now. The word is out all over the galaxy, especially on Naboo. I've been in the news, no confirmation has been made by me or the council.

People are afraid, they realize how destructive my powers can be. One politician even said that I might be able to make planets and galaxies disappear because I can change and make matter disappear. But my powers are not strong enough to do such a thing. At least not for the moment.

They have intensified in the last few months. It was complicated. I turned water in a well into steam without meaning to, just by touching the water, and other incidents like that. I made my bow disappear without meaning to. I have to be even more careful.

I also change the reality unintentionally, my sisters Ryoo and Pooja often complain about it. They say that when I'm with them, I sometimes make them change places without me realizing it. My powers are becoming more and more uncontrollable and powerful which worries my parents.

But I try to stay positive. Many good things have also happened in my life; I have been appointed senator, replacing a former senator who resigned. That's why I have to go to Coruscant. I've also learned to use my lightsaber better, so I sometimes go out to the meadows and practice.

I also got closer to my sister Padme, she often goes to Coruscant to fulfill her duties as a senator. She was happy for me after she heard I was joining the Senate. I felt guilty that I couldn't protect her wherever she went like I used to. I wonder if things would be different if I hadn't used my powers in the arena, and my powers would have remained a secret.

I was also lucky enough to run into Obi-Wan on Naboo because he had business here, which was four months ago. I asked him about Anakin, and he just said he was fine.

Anakin, it's been six long months since I've seen him, I must admit I don't expect to see him on Coruscant, I'm only there for a week, unless there are changes in plans. But in my heart I was hoping to see him again.

What he said to me before he left that day, that sentence has been running through my head for the last six months, I've tried to turn that sentence around, and I'm still confused, I don't really know what Anakin's message was.

I couldn't stop thinking about him, every time I went archery I thought about him and the day he shot his first arrow in the middle. Every time I saw my lightsaber I thought about the fact that his saber was the same color as mine. And every time I upgraded my suit, I thought of him. Everything reminded me of him, and it was torture.

I couldn't help but wonder what happened to him. Is he still an apprentice or did he finally become a Jedi Knight? Has he been able to mourn his mother? Is his arm okay? Does he think about me as much as I think about him?

I don't think so, he must have forgotten about me with six months, it wouldn't surprise me anyway. I wondered what I could feel for him, was it attachment? admiration or love? I had directly ruled out the love option.

It couldn't be that. I didn't want it and Anakin couldn't fall in love. So I assumed it was friendly attachment and a little admiration. But how often do you think about a friend or someone you admire?

I hear someone knocking on my door, bringing me out of my thoughts, so I allow this person to enter. I see Antonia, one of my servants.

"M'Lady, your ship is ready to take off." She says.

I smile before taking my bag, she takes it in her hands, I thank her. Antonia leaves then towards the runway to deposit my things. I turn around before seeing my bodyguard accompanied by Nala; my replacement as senator.

She was very nice, I got along well with her. The Senate assigned her to me. She was a Togruta. She smiled gently at me.

"Are you ready to go? She asks.

- Ready." I said, looking at my bodyguard right after.

The three of us then leave, exiting the palace then heading to the runway where we board the ship.

I bought an apartment on Coruscant, it was three blocks from the Jedi Temple and a few miles from the Senate. It was on the top floor of a large building, I thought it would be easier to buy an apartment there, I thought I would be on Coruscant more often now, that's what Padme did.
