“Who are you?”

Henri looked confused.

“I don’t understand what you mean,” Henri said.

Borghi stood and circled his pupil.

“Who are you?”

“I am Henri,” Henri said immediately.

“That’s your name,” Borghi corrected. “I want to know who you are.”

Henri looked at his younger brother for help, but Andre just shrugged.

“Who do you see yourself as?” Borghi prodded.

“I am the heir to Monde,” Henri said. “One day I shall be King.”

“But is that who you are?”

Henri appeared agitated. He didn’t understand what Borghi was asking him.

“Think about it and come back to me.”

I shall be writing something that follows up to this, but it probably won't be a direct sequel hehe.

Thank you for reading!

I'm thinking Henri never really has an answer for him. He doesn't seem that introspective.

[leia_solo]

He doesn't have one at least at this point in his life.

Ooh. A very important thing for Henri to know, I think... the more so because he doesn't know right now.

[leia_solo]

Yeah at this point in his life he's just trying to fit the image his family has built up for him.

Thank you for reading!
