Cassandra is still crying when she starts to tell me what happen..

It was suddenly when the prince appear, rather than greeting her, he went straight towards Anna.

At first everyone..even Anna is confused on why the prince is talking to her...then the prince revealed his secrets

It turns out the prince is using a fake name and a disguise to hide himself among the others,and in one of his walks.. he ends up meeting Anna..the two of them became friends..good friends. That's when the two of them fall in love with each other

Anna was shock.. it seems that her feelings towards the prince are real..at least with the person he disguised as..and in front of everyone ..he announce that he will cancel his engagement with Cassandra..and take Anna as his fiance instead..

"He's a horrible person.." I said as I gently rub and tap Cassandra's back as she cries

". . . . What should I do... All this time I thought that..no..am I really that dumb.. "

"Don't say that, your not dumb..you are one of the smartest person that I know.." I sighed "god I'm bad with consoling people.."

"Anna.. how could she ..she.."

No..this is wrong, Anna also didn't know isn't she?.. I'm just frustrated that she didn't told us about her relationship..we are here close friends after all...but it is her life..I understand.. at this point Cassandra will start to blame Anna with this..and she will fall.. just like the villainess in the story

"Was it really her fault?"

"Your also gonna pick her si-"

"It's not like that?" My hands just grab onto her shoulders as I shake her a bit "you already told me right? She's also confused! Both of your are my friend..the both are you are friends! Are you really going to ruin that friendship just because of that man!?"

...I'm not sure if this words of mine will impact what will happen..but at least... I don't want the two of them fight..and Cassandra..she's gonna die if she continue this path of hate and despair

"Listen...talk to her first, you and Anna.. you two are like sisters when I watch you two interact..so please..before you do anything that you will regret... Think about it first"

She was still crying..I know she's hurt..and she needs to process everything..

She yank my hand off her shoulders before standing up..she's not talking..

"I'll go for now"

"I'll take you to your room"

"No....I'll go alone...I need some space..."

"Alright, but don't hesitate to call me if you need someone to talk with..heck even Thomas.."

"I'll keep that in mind"

The night ended sorrowfully

"Cassandra wait!" That was the last words I spoke before Cassandra run out of the ball..it seems that Desmond went after her..

"Anna..let's"

"You lied to me.." Kurtz..no..the prince.. how can he do this... All this time..all this time I'm one of the reasons why Cassandra was having a hard time.. it only if I know..maybe..maybe I wouldn't fall in love with him 

"I have to..I don't know if you'll accept if you know that im-"

"Let go of me" I move away from him... "C-cassandra loves you..how could you?"

"I don't have any feeling for her..It was only an arrange marriage from our fathers"

"Still! Then why couldn't you just tell her..why did you let her think that she has a chance..."

"I don't have the courage to do it..but when I meet you..I know that it's the time too" the prince tried to hold me again but I refuse

"No.. I'm leaving, I need to talk to Cassandra"

I take off my shoes and start to run the prince tried to follow but was stopped by a black smoke

It was Thomas "you need a lot of explanation for to us" he said..I never see him this serious before..but I understand..I'm party at fault...

"Sorry..sorry that I kept it secret..maybe if I didn't.."

Thomas sigh "keep your head straight, isn't that what Cassandra keep telling you..don't worry, me and Desmond will help you fix this"

"Thank you.. "

We try to find Cassandra and Desmond..but we only find Desmond alone on the fountain

"Where's Cassandra?" I ask

"She..she's need some time alone...I already talk to her.. im sure she will talk to us when she's ready"

I look down and held onto the skirt if my dress..this dress..this dress that Cassandra picked for me..

Thomas starts to rub my head ruffling my hair "cheer up would ya! Everything will he fine, right Desmond"

When we look at Desmond..he seems to be unsure..but he gave a smile "yes..everything will work out.."
