This date was unpleasant.
Hannah returned to the Bedchamber, fuming alone.
Merlin Edvin did not follow her.
It wasn't until Hannah stormed all the way back to her bedchamber that she stopped.
She turned around to look outside, making sure no one was there before sitting down and beginning to cry, heartbroken.
It was supposed to be a happy occasion, seeing him.
She had confirmed that he was still alive, still by her side, still fond of her.
Then why was there not the slightest hint of happiness?
Moreover, when she left angrily, he didn't even follow.
He always seemed to cling to her when he shouldn't, yet when he should, he wouldn't.
After an indeterminate amount of time crying, Hannah finally wiped away her tears, washed her face, and then summoned a lady-in-waiting, "Where is Tang? Call her to me."
The lady-in-waiting bowed immediately, "Your Highness, the Princess, Tang left today."
"Left? Where did she go?" Hannah was surprised.
