 * Dear Diary, **


 * I am just bewildered by my eyes. Heart-broken, alone and worried about what to make of the death of Hamlet, King of Denmark. He was my only true love. What may have been is now forever lost. Our small family could have grown but now all our plans are gone with you. The past few days have been a horrid nightmare. Our child is suffering from your death though he did not know of you as his father, and I am suffering as well… **


 * I try to keep to myself and do not speak now, as every corner I turn I feel as though someone is sneaking around, spying on me, on us. I feel as though we will soon be figured out, that such madness in the castle is pushing those within to try attacking another. I am scared of what would happen if anyone found out about the secret life and child that Hamlet and I shared. Even Hamlet and Nathaniel are unaware of their family bond, I did not want to cause chaos in the castle. For this reason I believed keeping our ties a secret was the safest action possible for all parties involved. I continuously ask myself if I should tell Nathaniel about his father, since his birthday is coming up and he will be old enough to understand. However, I do not see Nathaniel often as the new king, Claudius is working him all day and all night. I lay awake in my bed waiting for Nathaniel to come down to our chamber at night safely, praying always that he has the strength to make it through such hard times. **


 * It kills me to not see Hamlet, as the King of Denmark anymore. He was such a noble and fair king, unlike Claudius who is so unfit to rule. I have seen Hamlet’s ghost many times and have talked with him. Just yesterday he came to talk to me while I was cleaning the study. We talked about what our lives could have been, had this tragedy not happened. He reassured me that no one will find out about our past life together. He also asked of me to take care of his known son, Hamlet, for he has been having much trouble with the death of his father. As well, my Hamlet feels as though Gertrude and Claudius have not paid enough attention to his weak son in his time of need, and trusts me in looking out for him after his passing. We talked for what seemed like hours. He told me of his death, and of Claudius and the evil within him. I was unaware that someone could be capable of such a horrible act of murder. He also told me that Hamlet will help him seek revenge on Claudius. I cannot wait for this day. Claudius deserves anything which comes his way, taking King Hamlet away from his kingdom and myself (though not to sound selfish. **


 * Alas, the hour is late and I hear Nathaniel returning finally. I must get some rest now, as Nathaniel will need his as well. Thank you for someone to confide in during such uncertain times diary. **


 * I’m keeping you close to my heart. We’ll see what tomorrow brings. **
