LXXXV

EMMA:

"Don't argue,

you don't wear these shoes.

You don't know

how I agonize.

For I have

everything to lose.

Yet gain more

at a greater price."


LXXXVI

EMMA:

"I need him,

oh I need him bad.

It is time for us

to consign.

I can't throw away

what we had.

I need to take back

what was mine."


LXXXVII

And the Paragon raised

her voice.

There won't be

any agreement.

Emma already

made her choice.

she's fluent.


LXXXVIII

PARAGON:

"Why can't you

stand on your own feet?

You can raise

a kingdom alone.

I know

it can be bittersweet,

You don't need a king

on the throne."


LXXXIX

EMMA:

"I can not

leave it all behind.

John James

belong only to me!

Like a treaty

that's sealed and signed,

No one can take him,

nobody!"


XC

PARAGON:

"I could laugh

at your foolishness,

Yet compliment

your bravery.

Why don't we

get down to business,

Was this why you

despised Mary?"
