Padmé anxiously awaited Anakin's arrival. She received a call from Obi Wan, informing her that Anakin hadn't slept in a week. He asked her if she could try to find out what was bothering him. According to Obi Wan, Anakin refused to tell anyone what was wrong. As she thought about what Obi Wan said, she heard the door open. She got up, and ran into Anakin's open arms. They embraced each other tightly, and Anakin spun her around. When he set her down, she pulled back to examine him.
His skin was pale. There were bags under his eyes. He looked a little thinner, like he hadn't eaten in a while. He seemed to look frail, from lack of energy. He smiled at her weakly. "I missed you." he said in meek voice. "Oh Ani" Padmé whispered. "What's bothering you?" "What do mean?" "Ani, Obi Wan called. He said you haven't slept for nearly a week, and that you won't tell anyone what's wrong. He's worried about you Ani, and now so am I. Please, tell me what's wrong so I can help. I love you." Anakin hung his head, expressing defeat. "It's a nightmare." He said quietly, his voice cracking. "And it's about you."
