I'm Not Alone Becasue Loneliness Is Always With Me

After another boring evening that Laura had to attend to celebrate her rescue and thus prove that people supported her. Despite that and all the good attentions from his father. The only thing she wanted was to be left alone but it was the opposite.

Once the evening was over, she went back to her room and once the door closed, she slumped against the door, her head staring at the ceiling and let out a huge sigh.
- Pfffff... This kind of thing is really starting to tire me out more than help me.

The princess then headed towards her bed where she collapsed with her whole body wearing her pretty black dress and gloves decorated with gold patterns.
- I'm tired ! I so wish you were here next to me to keep me company. She sat against the back of the bed with a pillow beneath her.
She remained like this for a long time, in complete silence, the index finger of her right hand pressed against her head and her other hand placed on the blanket covering part of her body. Pensively wondering what to do.
- Dare I call him ? Speaking to him would do me the greatest good in relation to all those people who wished me a good recovery after this event...
What do I have to lose by trying ?
Laura issued a voice command to hopefully establish a connection.
- Establish communication with “Best Friend” !
Name not found, please try again.
With an angry look at hearing this refusal, she started the voice command again.
- Arrr, that's not true ! Call “Best friend Florent” !
Order accepted, attempt to establish communication with the person named previously. Please stand by !

On another planet far away, in his command quarters. The person who would soon receive an incoming communication was analyzing combat reports received by his troops when the screen in front of him lit up to indicate that someone was trying to communicate with him.
- Please answer me, I need to hear your voice to find some comfort !

Florent looked up from his reports to see the incoming call but the first thought that came to him made him panic more than rejoice.

- Please no... Don't tell me it's starting again. I told him that everything was going to be fine and that it would happen again in my absence.

He pressed a button to accept the communication and what was his relief when he saw Laura through the screen and at the same time a touch of sadness when he saw her saddened face.

- Laura, is that you? What's the matter, is everything okay ?

The princess had an inner smile when she saw her friend.

- Now that I see you, yes! Don't worry about here. Like you said, nothing special has happened since your rescue...

- So much the better, that reassures me. However, in your opinion, it could be better. If you call me, is it because you want to ask me or talk about something ? I'm listening to you.

- Oooh, you know very well what would make me happy but already knowing your answer and your reasons, I'm not going to bother you with that... I'm just looking for a little comfort as best I can, where I can .

Florent remained silent hearing the distress in his voice but she already knew that there was little he could do to remedy it immediately.

- Do you want me to talk to my sister so that she can come see you, so that you feel alone?

A nervous laugh was heard from Laura's mouth.

Pfff feel alone but I'm not really alone. I'm Not Alone Becasue Loneliness Is Always With Me !!

At his words, the young man was speechless. Realizing the problem was bigger than he thought

- Oh Laura, no... You know I don't like knowing you like that and even more knowing I'm powerless in the face of this situation! Said Florent, sinking into his seat, one arm on the elbow of the seat with his 3 fingers of his hand on the top of his head.

The solution is simple, either you come see me or I'll come to you, that way you won't need to move.

- Out of the question ! I refuse to take such a risk. I don't want to see you near a battlefield. If something happened to you, I would never forgive myself! This is why I gave my details to almost no one.

This somewhat crude response made Laura jump on her bed.

But I... I want to... very well. You're probably right, sorry.

A tear began to fall down the princess's face, which immediately brought down her knight's anger and brought out his empathetic side.

- Excuse me my princess ! I didn't have to raise my voice at you my dear, that's unacceptable of me.

- It doesn't matter. I know you said that for my own good and not to really hurt me. It's just hard at the moment.

- I can imagine that it must not be easy for you lately and if I could be close to you, I would, you know very well, but I am stuck here for another indefinite period.

Her response demoralized the young girl a little.

- Yet at the beginning, you told me that it was only going to last a few months.

Please Laura, you must have suspected that I could not calculate an exact duration for such a large-scale operation. And as usual, it rarely turns out as we wish, as I was able to realize to my great happiness.

Laura couldn't say anything about that, he was right on that point to her great regret.

- And if not, how are things going there? Are you better off with your soldiers for their baptism of fire ?

- We will say that it could be better or worse but overall, it is going rather well despite the surprises encountered...

- What are you on at the moment without being indiscreet ? what the battlefield looks like...

- No, you can know, even if I'm wiretapped, I don't have anything classified that can't leave this room. At the moment, we're fighting in a huge damn Desert with sand as far as the eye can see in the heat of the sun.

- it must be difficult for them to fight ?

- They are starting to get used to it but the cooling cells help quite a bit. They have to maintain their armor and vehicles more because of this sand which gets encrusted everywhere. It's horrible but that's how it is.

- I can imagine what a hassle this must be and I wish them good luck then.

- It's not to sound rude but when I look at the time and I quickly do the calculation in relation to your place. I think it's time to go to sleep my dear.... Let you rest a little.

This was not pleasant to hear for Laura who did not want this conversation to end but she yawned so hard that she almost dropped her jaw.

- Aaaaaah. I think you're right, I'd better try to get some sleep. Florent? Can I tell you something before cutting off the call ?

- Yes of course, what... But he didn't have time to finish his sentence when the sound of an alarm started and a soldier burst into the room.

- My lord, our scouts have spotted the enemy and they are not far from here. We need you to supervise the operation ! The soldier left as quickly as he had entered to prepare for the battle to come.

- Sorry Laura but I'm going to have to leave you! Was it important what you wanted to tell me ?

 Laura was taken aback by what she had just heard in the distance and responded very briefly.

Um... no, no. It wasn't. it can wait, worry...

Kisses and see you next time, she replied in a weak and monotonous voice.

- I am again sincerely sorry for this unforeseen event but I cannot decide when it will happen or not...

Kisses to you and your family !

He pressed the button to hang up.

Laura found herself alone in her room again, almost in total darkness.

- I suspect that you don't choose the moment, sigh....

She stood up to be at the edge of her bed, took off her heels and delicately took off her long black silk gloves, which she then placed on her bedside table before going back to bed. She started to burst into tears in her bed

- Why can't he see that I love him? I already can't tell him because there is always something from inside or outside that stops me. With his words, she ends up falling asleep, in the most total sadness...
