Dear Diary,

    Anakin and I are returning to Coruscant tonight. Although we will be on the same planet, I doubt we will see each other for a while.

    But I've come to realize that loving Anakin will always come with a price. Risk Our love cannot come without risk, but that's okay with me. I know that it will be hard, but loving Anakin is worth it.

    When we return to work, we will both be faced with trials of our own. But we are ready. We are ready.

   Anakin whispers the words in my ear every minute of the flight, "We are ready. You are ready. You are strong, Padme."

    His words of reassurance are just what I need. I will stay strong in this time of war, this time of trial and danger. I am ready because I have Anakin.

                               Love, Mrs. Skwalker
