Oh, you think I'm gonna let a golden scoop slip by? One snap and suddenly everyone's got a front-row seat to their "innocent" little meeting.

Just as her husband had been, Anne was also a victim to the old house's inhabitants: she got attacked by bats in the middle of the day.

King Henry College, Windenburg (10:54am)

Albert: Thank you so much for your help, Dr. McAllister.

McAllister: It was my pleasure, sir. See you tomorrow.

Albert: Very well then, take care and have a great day.

McAllister: You too, sir.

---

Albert: Let's get going before McAllister starts bombarding me with more history.

Richard: [chuckles] Weren't you excited to hear those for your speech tomorrow?

Albert: Yeah, but I thought he'd give me a quick crash course. I didn't expect him to go into all the details about my ancestors. Can you imagine how much information that is?

Richard: I can, sir.

Albert: Well, you're the history buff, not me. It felt like an endless punishment, reminding me of my school days.

Richard: Good thing your car is ready. We can make a quick escape from history.

Albert: You know what, Richard? One of these days, I'm gonna...

???: Albert?

Albert: Anne?

Anne: Hey!

Albert: Hey, how are you?

Anne: I'm doing well. How about you?

Albert: I'm good, um...

Anne: [laughs] Don't be so awkward, Albert.

Albert: Sorry! It's just that I didn't expect to see you here.

Anne: Well, the feeling is mutual. So, what brings you here?

Albert: Research, actually. I'm preparing for my speech tomorrow.

Anne: You're the guest speaker for tomorrow's assembly? I thought Charlotte was responsible for the college's speeches.

Albert: She was, but with her upcoming wedding and all, I've taken over those duties. Now is your turn, why are you here?

Anne: Actually, I'm teaching a class on early childhood development. It's been a wonderful experience so far.

Albert: That's fantastic, Anne! I know teaching has always been a passion of yours and you have a natural talent for it. The future generations are fortunate to have you as their teacher.

Anne: Thank you, it means a lot to hear that from you. Say, are you free right now? How about we grab a cup of coffee and catch up?

Albert: That sounds like a great idea! You stay here Richard.

Richards: But sir...

Albert: It’s an order.

Richard: ...Yes, sir.

Albert: So, where do you want to go?

Anne: There's this cute coffee shop down the street that sells the best coffee in town.

Albert: Sounds great to me, let’s go.

Richard: [sigh] Your grandson might find himself in some trouble soon sir.

[alintricsims]

Anne did not like to wash the laundry as the water was icy and the wind was cold, but it had to get done. Josie, on the other hand, did not mind the cold at all and loved to play in the snow.

[alintricsims]

The household chores turned out to be easier than Anne had thought, though they still took her the better part of the day.

So with this ring May you always know one thing What little I have to give I will give it all to you

Abhiti: Albert? What are you doing here?

Albert: I know you just landed but I wanted to see you, I was going to call but I wanted to surprise you.

Abhiti: This is a good surprise, come in.

Albert: Actually, if you’re up for it, I wanted to take you somewhere. I mean, we could leave it for later because you’re probably tired from your flight or we don’t have to do this.

Abhiti: You’re rambling Albert [laughs] I’m always up for an adventure so let’s go. Should I change?

Albert: No, no, what you’re wearing is good.

Abhiti: Well then, lead the way kind sir.

[change of location]

Abhiti: Where are we?

Albert: One of the local markets open for the spring. Today is actually the last day anyone can visit them so I wanted you to experience them. They have live music today!

Abhiti: [laughs] Then we better hurry so we don’t miss it.

[change of location]

Albert: I swear this is every other royal in Windenburg

Abhiti: Don’t say that Albert! But I think you’re right [laughs]

???: Albert?

Albert: Adrien? I haven’t seen you in so long, how are you?

Adrien: I'm good. Just enjoying my break from the military for the wedding. I see that you are also taking advantage of the festivities.

Albert: Yes, I am. Let me introduce you Abhiti, this si Lord Adrien Haven. He’s the son of Lord Robert, the Baron of Oak.

Abhiti: It’s a pleasure to finally meet you. I have heard a lot of you from your sister.

Adrien: You know my sister?

Abhiti: Yes, we became acquainted when she attended the gala in Shaadval.

Adrien: Oh I see. I-It’s nice to make you acquainted as well then. I’m actually meeting her here so you might bump into her.

Albert: W-what?

Abhiti: Well, she’s already here.

Adrien: Annie!

Abhiti: It;s nice to see you again lady Anne.

Anne: Likewise ma’am, is also nice to see you Albert.

Adrien: I didn’t know you were so famous with the foreign royals sis.

Anne: I told you, I’m a big deal [laughs]

Albert: …If you guys excuse us then, I want to show the rest of the market to Abhiti.

Anne: Wait! Could I talk to you Albert?

Albert: …

Anne: I promise I’ll be fast.

Albert: I-

Abhiti: I actually need to leave. I flew in today so I’m feeling a little lethargic. Hope you don’t mind Anne.

Anne: Ah- no, of course not.

Albert: Could you guys excuse me for a moment, I’ll walk Abhiti back.

Abhiti: Take care you two.

Both: Ma’am.

[walking away]

Abhiti: You know you don’t have to stay right.

Albert: I know, but- I think it’s time for me to talk with her. For the sake of peace.

Abhiti: I’ll stay with you then.

Albert: I think it's better for you to rest Ab. I’ll talk to you later okay.

Abhiti: Ok, take your time. Good luck with your talk.

Winden Market Gardens, Windenburg (5:35pm)

Anne: I hope I didn’t make you wait too long.

Albert: Anne, hey! you scared me there.

Anne: Sorry! what are you doing on the floor?

Albert: I was just looking at the flowers, they bloomed rather nicely this year.

Anne: I see...so why did you ask me to meet with you?

Albert: Right. Well, I’ve been thinking about us and our relationship.

Anne: Ok...

Albert: I wanted to tell you that I would give you as much time as you needed, that I’ll wait for you for as long as you want, but...

Anne: ...what?

Albert: I won’t tell you that.

Anne: no...?

Albert: No. I realized that no matter how much time I give you, you’ll never be truly happy with me. Staying with me means giving up everything for what you are working so hard for, and I won’t ask you to.

Albert: I want to be with you Anne, but, if making you stay with me means that you’ll have to give everything up, I won’t do it. All I want is for you to be happy, even if that means breaking up.

Anne: So...this is it?

Albert: ...yes.

Anne: I’m sorry I can’t give you what you want. I’m really sorry.

Albert: Don’t apologize for who you are Anne after all that’s the woman I fell in love with, passionate about her work with her sights set on her goals. Even now, I wouldn’t change you love. Never.

Anne: I will always love you Albie, even a thousand years from now.

Albert: *chuckles* Me too.

Albert: Bye Annie.

Anne: ...Bye Albert.
