I wanted to laugh at his surprised face, but my eyes were threatening to well up. Did he need to be so surprised! Had he completely forgotten me? It had been two lifetimes yet I could remember everything as if it was just yesterday.

We had participated together in debates, making projects, we even shared lunch twice in the meeting. I thought we were friends but it looked like everything was my wishful thinking.

"I have seen you there a few times." he finally said, remembering and I laughed.

"A few times, your highness," I asked, mocking, whether him or me, did not know anymore.

He nodded, completely ignorant of how his words were stabbing me, the pain was more than the sword, he used to attack me in the morning.

"Yes, I remember I had shared notes with you for a debate over a meal." I closed my eyes and nodded. At least he remembered something.
