  Kali shows concern for her father.

   "Father, what has happened?"

"Does not Marinette feel the same?"

     

    Prince Adrien sobs. 

   "It hurts. She only wants to be friends."

     "I am so sorry, papa."


     Kali hugs her father to comfort him.  Prince Adrien hugs his daughter.

     The two weep together.  Why is the princess so stubborn?

         Prince Adrien thought the princess loved him.  How could he have been so stupid?  

      He recalled Princess Marinette Snow White's  words, "I only did what was best for the kingdom."

          He sighed. He supposed he would have to leave with a broken heart.

           Why did he have to fall in love with her anyway?  It was not like there were no other princesses in the land.

             He knew this one was special, different than the rest, and he could not help who he loved. Her rejection hurt more than he would ever admit.  

             The princess was the first one to care about his whereabouts or his daughter for that matter.


                Prince Adrien decided he would remain inside the guest quarters from then on inside of facing her.  His daughter could do as she pleased.

                  Marinette Snow White frowned.  Perhaps she was too harsh on the boy.  

              She felt horrible for how sad he sounded. What was she to do?

      She could not back out of the deal she made with her father on his deathbed, could she?

    

              She was afraid.  She knew it was hard to do what it took to be a good ruler. Was she cut out to be a wife, let alone a mother?

             She was worried she would mess things up.  She rather not try than to ruin anything.


            Little did she know pushing him away only made his love grow fonder for her.  Try as he might he could not stop loving her.

                 Kali liked having the princess around too. She wished the new princess or queen could see how much she needed her dad in her life.

                   Marinette Snow White grew frustrated and confused each moment that passed. She ate her meals alone. She did not ask for this life.

                  "How do I know what is right?"  She felt a tear trickle down her face.
