Chapter 11: Telling Secrets

Caspian stares intently at Anna for a long while. He seems to be deliberating on something.

Anna glares back with a questioning look, waiting for Caspian's response.

It feels like eons of time passed with both of them gazing at each other.

Caspian focuses on the dark skies now. The sun has finally set and the early evening seems to magically transform their surroundings into a fairy tale like scene.

Caspian resumes staring towards Anna again but finally saying, "I'm not really sure where to start Anna."

"We totally live in two different worlds you know," he adds.

Way to go Caspian, he thought to himself. You are not really making sense right now. 

"What do you mean by that? Is it because you live faraway beyond the forest? Don't you think that is being too melodramatic?"

Anna disrupts his thoughts as if hearing them too.

Caspian moves closer to Anna then touches her pale cheeks.
