The Other Side (4)

Projector screen: I know there's been a lot of focus on the new couple but we've so far only really heard Diana's side, this next one is a video of Charles where you get to see into his point of view...

Phillip: If this video is meant to be about Charles I don't see the reason why they felt the need to keep on bringing up bloody David. Gosh why did my son have to take after him.

Charles: I knew that nobody in particular likes David so when there's all these parallels between him and me I can't help but be frightened that it's somehow foreshadowing my future. And if so does this mean I'll abdicate the throne? No no I wouldn't do that, I couldn't. But perhaps it's for shadowing in a different way? Maybe I'll find a way to finally marry Camilla and be able to live her openly and without shame.

Elizabeth: It truly did hurt to hear my own son allude to me having no heart or no empathy for others. I suppose I'll have to get used to it though because he'll have to learn it as I did, that in order to be a good ruler sometimes you have to set aside your own feelings and ambition for the good of the people. I was lucky that granny taught me that lesson and he'll eventually be grateful for those wise words spoken to me not so long ago for it will help him, even if he refuses to believe it.

Diana: It seems I can't help but sympathize with Charles because I can see my own pain through him. We have the same wants and needs for each other which you would think would make it easier for us to both get what we want but it seems neither of us truly knew when the other needed it most.

Camilla: It's poetic the way that Anne worded it, a girl in love with a boy who loved another who herself loved another. Though I hope they don't dwell on the last bit too much. I may be braking apart two marriages with the help of the prince but it seems, in the future at least, I truly do allow myself to fall in love with him.

Diana: I don't want this for my future. My whole life I believed that I would find my prince charming and live happily ever after but it seems I've only found a prince. I don't want to wake up everyday in a loveless marriage filled with deceit and loathing for each other, I don't want to lay there feeling helpless. I deserve better than the bad hand god had dealt me.

Elizabeth: it does pain me to see Diana go through the same thing as me but in the end of the day you have to choose your battles and bury it because if you don't the vultures that are the press will circle you waiting to feast on you secret filled corpse. They won't stop until your dead and gone, even then they'd still come back searching for more.

Charles: It's not fair when everyone paints me in a bad light when all I've really done is love a woman and stay loyal to her. They knew, my own family knew that I loved Camilla and yet one day I'm leaving to give service to my country and the next I'm finding out, through the paper no less, that the woman I love and cherish has married another man in the short time that I've been away. Only for me to discover when I return that she was pushed into his arms by my own family. Even still, I married someone that met everyone's expectations and it still wasn't enough. They knew I was still in love with Camilla but they forced me into another's arms and were surprised to find out that I found my way back to the woman I love!

Diana: I still can't believe that my future is to be so depressing but I have to look for the silver lining if I am to really go through this. Even though my future marriage to Charles will only bring pain and betrayal at least it will give me my son's whom I don't doubt will be the lights of my life.

(A/n)
So I just realized that there's absolutely no dialogue but I kind of like the inner dialogue I think it gives more depth to the characters, I don't know though let me know if you like it this way or if you prefer it the other way. Until then hope you enjoyed!
