The next day, William avoided me completely. He wouldn't even look at me. Sitting at the table with everyone felt uncomfortable since William was so obviously ignoring me. I began to wonder if I should just avoid the group altogether to prevent this awkward atmosphere. Luckily we would be leaving tomorrow so I wouldn't have to endure this much longer. However, I can't help but feel a bit sad that William was acting like this.
Hypatia noticed my depressed mood and pulled me away to speak to me privately. She smiled at me, "Is something wrong?"
How could I admit to a Queen that William confessed to me on the beach and I flat out rejected him?
I scratched my head, "Ah, nothing's wrong. I just did something and now I feel incredibly awkward. I'm just a bit stressed at the moment, but it's really nothing."
