Tay and Princess Anya met in the secluded forest, the air was filled with a sense of anticipation, both carrying their own revelations to share. With a deep breath, Tay took the lead, his heart heavy with the weight of his confession.

"Anya, I have something to talk to you," Tay began, his voice tinged with uncertainty.

Anya's eyes softened with understanding as she nodded, a gentle smile playing on her lips. "I have something to talk to you too," she admitted, her tone gentle and reassuring.

"Can I start first?" Tay asked, his voice barely above a whisper as he gathered his thoughts.

Closing his eyes briefly, Tay took a deep breath, steeling himself for what was to come. "Anya, I think... I may have fallen in love with New," he confessed, the words hanging in the air between them.

Anya's smile widened, her gaze warm and understanding as she met Tay's eyes. "I know, Tay," she replied softly, her voice filled with a sense of certainty.

Tay's eyes widened in surprise, his heart skipping a beat at her words. "What? You... you know?" he stammered, taken aback by her response.

Anya nodded, her expression serene as she reached out to place a reassuring hand on Tay's arm. "You have fallen for him, long ago," she explained gently. "You just didn't realize it."

Tay's mind raced with a whirlwind of emotions, his thoughts spinning as he processed Anya's words. "Anya, you're not angry?" he asked, his voice tinged with uncertainty.

"Why should I be?" Anya replied, her tone filled with warmth and understanding. "You have found your happiness, and I have found mine."

Tay blinked in surprise, his heart swelling with gratitude for Anya's unwavering support. "Your happiness?" he echoed, curiosity piqued by her words.

Anya nodded, a soft smile gracing her lips as she spoke. "While you spent days and weeks taking care of your beloved husband," she began, "I got to meet up with my fiancé."

Tay's eyes widened in realization as he recalled their previous conversations about Anya's arranged marriage. "Your fiancé?" he repeated, his curiosity piqued.

Anya nodded, her smile growing wider as she spoke. "Remember I told you my father has decreed that I am to be wed to another?" she asked, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

Tay nodded, recalling their previous conversations about Anya's impending nuptials. "Yes, I remember," he replied, his voice filled with curiosity.

Anya's smile softened, her gaze turning thoughtful as she continued. "I got to meet him," she explained, her voice tinged with excitement. "We spent a lot of time together recently, and I really like him."

Tay's heart swelled with happiness for Anya, his own worries momentarily forgotten as he celebrated her newfound joy. "I'm so happy for you, Anya," he exclaimed, genuine warmth in his voice.

Anya smiled warmly, her eyes shimmering with genuine happiness as she returned Tay's sentiment. "Thank you, Tay," she replied softly, her voice filled with warmth and gratitude. "I appreciate your support."

Tay's heart swelled with gratitude at Anya's words, his admiration for her unwavering strength and resilience growing with each passing moment. "You deserve all the happiness in the world, Anya," he said earnestly, his voice filled with sincerity.

Anya's smile widened at Tay's words, her heart filled with a sense of contentment and peace. "As do you, Tay," she replied, her voice tinged with affection. "I have no doubt that you and New will find your own happiness together."

Tay's gaze softened at Anya's words, a sense of reassurance washing over him like a gentle tide. "Thank you, Anya," he said softly, his voice tinged with gratitude. "Your friendship means the world to me."

With a nod of understanding, Anya reached out to squeeze Tay's hand gently, a silent gesture of support and solidarity. "And yours to me, Tay," she replied, her voice filled with warmth and affection.

They sat together in the peaceful serenity of the forest, surrounded by the quiet beauty of nature, Tay and Princess Anya found solace in each other's company. Though their paths may lead them in different directions, their bond remained unbreakable, a testament to the enduring power of friendship and love.
