"You sure got the right idea," chuckled Eric. He kissed her on the forehead and said, “Thanks for understanding." He hugged her and sighed.

“It’s alright once we’re married, I will help you lessen your burden.”

“I know you will.”

Samantha snuggled into his arms.

“I just hope that by that time, you will be able to annul the engagement with her," said Samantha.

"Who?"

"Ruby, of course."

Eric's heart ached at the mention of her name. He thought to himself, that he is holding the woman he love in his arms. Yet, his heart and mind wanders to the woman he hates. Why is heart wavering at the mention of her. What is going on with him? How can he be unfaithful to the woman he love? How can he not love the woman who cherishes him the most? He was confused.

“I- I hope so too.”

“Did she peskier you?” asked Samantha as she heard his stuttering response. She looked at him innocently in his arms.

    Clenching his hands together, Eric asked, “Grandfather why are you always doing this?” “I’m just confirming the rumors.”“And what do you get by confirming the rumors.”“The truth.”Eric frowned. If his grandfather confirmed the rumors that it wasn’t Samantha who started the rumors, then it just goes to show that the soldiers view Samantha as good luck. And no harm will come to her.

He said you couldn’t wait for Eric to return home to marry her.”Eric’s eyes was startled as he was not aware such rumors were going around the camp. He looked at his commanders

    When they finally came to a stop, Eric thought to himself. Would Samantha really go around saying things like that? What was her reasoning? Could she do such a pitiful thing?

Is there more than what meets the eye?"Eric?" asked Samantha."Yeah," replied Eric, without looking at her. "You-you don't believe her, right?"Eric thought long and hard.

Kevin was buttoning up his shirt. Stunned Samantha shook her head and said, “You’re lying.”“Ask around. The truth can’t be sway.”“What does that mean?”“You know exactly what I mean. And I don't lie.” Samantha clenched her hands together into a fist and said, “Say it to my face!”“Sure. Heck! What good would it be to tell such a lie? I'm no fool.""It wasn't me.""Keep telling yourself that.""I'm telling the truth!" shouted Samantha."Sure. And we all heard.""You-You!""What are you trying to do?

Even if he tells himself to not fall in love with her, the deeper he falls. What is he going to do? He is indecisive about what he wants to do with her. He looked at the moon and stared at it hoping for answers.“You know, it’s not too late to try to save your engagement with her,” said Kevin who came to stand by Eric. "Who?" asked Eric. "Who else do you think I'm talking about.""Ruby?""Of course." “No. It’s too late,” replied Eric, sighing. “What?”“She gave me her blessings already.”“Oh, so she’s over you now?’“Yeah.
