Padmé's POV

It had been 7 hours and I hadn't fallen asleep yet. I just couldn't.
I planned my visit to the Death Star to meet Ani. I wanted Obi-Wan to accompany me but I had no idea how to tell him without going to Tatooine. My twins are there. That's why I couldn't go.
Master Yoda said it's best for them to not know who their parents are, especially Anakin.
And, they're turning 19 today. So I couldn't stop thinking about them.
Luke and Leia Skywalker.

The last time I saw them, they were just babies, exact 19 years ago.
They are raised by Anakin's half brother, Owen Lars and his wife, Beru in Tatooine.
They told Luke and Leia that we died 19 years ago.
But we didn't.
I am now in Alderaan.
Hiding.
Anakin turned to the darkside.
That was the worst part of all.
