Chapter 19: Letting Go

After Anna finishes narrating all the information she has learned from Caspian, as well as all the revelations aided by her mysterious locket, Popsie and Marmee remain speechless for a few moments.

Anna does not take her eyes off her parents. She owes her life to these parents whom she will always love, no matter what she has learned about herself. They have sheltered and given her love all her life despite not knowing anything about her.

Both are now teary-eyed in front of her.

"Popsie? Marmee? Please say something..."

Anna pleads, now looking a bit worried, not having an idea what they are thinking.

It was Marmee Rose who stands first from the sofa and gives Anna a tight embrace.

"We have always known that this time will come. After all, you have been really someone extra special in our hearts. For us, you are forever our Princess. Although we are also surprised by all that you have told us, nothing changes for me and your Popsie."
