***This chapter brings up depression.***

====================================================

It had been six days since Cinder when into early labor but since then everything was doing fine. Her vitals as well as the baby's were strong her headaches were under control and even her stress levels were down. Now it was just a waiting game of getting to her 34 week.

Iko sat in the chair next to her with a portscreen in her lap. "From the Indonesian territory: Mo, Aisyah. 'Your Imperial Highness I am saddens to hear of your premature labor and do pray every day for yours and the child's heath. I do hope you have been made comfortable and you and our Emperor stay strong together. It is in time of adversary that we fine our strength. You and him have been through so much together and will no doubt carry that history and love with you as you start a new adventure. Long live the Emperor, Long live the heir.' Included in this com is a vouture for a boutique of flowers. They have already been purchased and are currently in front of the east gate with the others." They have been reading off comms sent to her royal portscreen for over an hour. Most had come from women and surprisingly they were all not from the Commonwealth. She had quite a large fan base in Europe and Africa. She had also revised a lot of flowers and small gifts. Kai had brought a couple into the room but most were kept at the gate so the crowd that had gathered outside could see them. The crowed had been there since the first night. They were having prays and candle light services but there had also been some skirmishes. So far four had been arrested and eight hurt. The palace security had been keeping it under control since then.

"Can we take a break?" She asks before Iko could start on another. Iko looked up her eyes a soft brown.

"Here maybe this one will make you feel better." She got up and went to her bag. She pulled out a folded paper and sat it on Cinders lap. It was a kids drawling. There was blue crayon for the sky with a bright yellow sun in the corner. A big red castle with flags at each point and three stick figures with large heads. One was Kai with black all around the head and a gold crown on top, the other was her with a white triangle dress and long brown hair and a third was a little child between the two of them it to had a crown on. Over top of them was "Imperial Family" but it was spelled wrong. "It arrived today."

"People are sending in paper letters?" She said looking at the piece again.

"Were getting a few hand written letters. That was the first one from a kid. I thought it was cute."Cinder smiled at it and placed it on her night stand.

"It is."

"Would you like to take your morning walk?"

"Yea this room is getting to stuffy." Iko helped Cinder out of the bed, she secured the hospital gown in the back held out her hand for Cinder to support herself on. After the first few days with everything going fine Dr. Lee had allowed her some freedom. Of course it was only to walk in the hall and she had to have someone with her and she couldn't to more the fifteen minutes at a time and only four times a day.

The hall was brightly lit and white and very clean. She really didn't like being here she had gotten to use to her room some but even it was to clean to white. She preferred her space to be a little messy. It use to a lot messy but after her and Kai got married she had to hone it in. That was another part she hated about be here, her and Kai hadn't been able to sleep together. It was upsetting that he would come and sit with her and tell her about his day get into a story only to either get kick out by Dr. Lee or leave on his own accord. They had spent time apart before weeks even but they were in the same building seemed kind of a waste.
