Chapter 4- A Princess Is Born

About 2 years have passed since Eva and Aikka saw each other again and after they got married. They were the king and queen of Nourasia living with nothing but happiness. One day while Aikka was busy with some problems in the city Eva was by the lake gazing at it non-stop and also repeating what the doctor had told her this morning after she had thrown up for the 5th time this week.

--Flashback--

"Doctor; why am I all of a sudden getting sick mostly in the mornings it doesn't make any sense?" Eva said while the doctor started to examine her.

"Well I won't know until I do a full examination Lady Eva." Eva did a small smile and let the doctor do his thing after an hour he finally knew what was wrong with Eva.

"It's nothing to worry about Lady Eva it's actually a good thing."

"What? How is it a good thing?" Eva was really confused, the doctor just smiled and said,

"Lady Eva you're actually pregnant." Eva's eyes widen

"What? I'm pregnant." the doctor nodded his head. Eva was really surprised but happy at the same time thinking that she would soon give birth to Aikka's child and the next heir to Nourasia. Then the doctor spoke,

"Lady Eva, should I tell your husband that you pregnant?" Eva shook her head.

"No. With this kind of news should be told by me after I'm the one giving birth to his child." she said as she laid her hand over her belly which actually now that you look at it was actually slightly swollen. The doctor didn't say another word, he just grabbed his things bowed to Eva and left.

"Now, how am I going to tell Aikka that he's soon going to be a father?"

--EndOfFlashBack--

That played in her head many times and she still didn't know how to tell Aikka about the baby. After sitting by the lake for a long time she soon heard footsteps coming her way and turned her head and it didn't surprise her that it was her husband Aikka coming to get her like he all away does after he was done for the day.

"May I join you my queen?" Aikka asked with a gentle voice and a smile on his face.

"Yes you can my king." Eva said with a smile Aikka seated himself right next to his queen and wrapped his arms around Eva bringing her closer to him. Eva was enjoying the time she was having with Aikka because he was all ways so busy that they hardly see each other throughout the day anymore. Aikka finally decided to say something,

"Eva." Eva turned her head towards Aikka. "What is it Aikka?" Aikka looked into her beautiful crimson red eye and asked,

"What did the doctor say about you throwing up lately and is it going to stop soon?" Eva could tell that Aikka was a little worried and all she did was smile and said,

"The doctor said it's nothing to worry about, but I'm going to probably going to be throwing up for awhile longer and some other symptoms will be starting up soon in a few months." Aikka was confused he was thinking that the doctor was being stupid saying that there was nothing to worry about when it sounds like it was going to get worse. Eva could tell that Aikka didn't get it at all; she did a small giggle and said,

"Aikka it's really nothing to worry about."

"Well it does sound like something to be worry about though." Eva shook her head

"Aikka, I'm pregnant. That's why I've been sick lately." Aikka's eyes widen

"What your pregnant with our first child?" all Eva did was a little nodded her head and looked down at her belly. Aikka soon place his hand over Eva's belly and she placed her hand over Aikka's hand. She looked at him with a warm smile.

"How far in the pregnancy did the doctor say you're in?"

"The doctor says at least 2 months." Aikka couldn't help but to keep on smiling knowing that he was going to be a father soon. It was soon getting dark and the couple decided it was time to go back to the palace to retire for the night and knowing tomorrow that they had to start making arrangements for the soon to be born baby's room to be put together.

--Many Months later--

Months had pass and Eva had soon given birth to a healthy half Human and half Nourasian baby girl. She had her father's skin and eye color and her father's ears. The only thing that she inherited from her mother was her black hair.

Aikka had their little girl in his arms and Eva was in the bed resting, she just gave birth to her daughter about 2 or 3 hours ago and she was still exhausted. She barley had enough strength to move but she was able to watch Aikka and their little girl already starting to bond.

"We should come up with a name for her?" Aikka soon said

"I already have one in mind." Eva said with a weak smile

"Really? Then what is it?"

"Her name will be Mia. My mother's name the same woman that gave me my passion for flying in a star racer." Aikka smiled at the name.

"I like that name a lot it really suits her well." Eva smiled but soon started to have a hard time breathing like someone was pushing down on her lungs and not letting up at all. Aikka soon notices and rushes off to get the doctor. Once the doctor comes in Eva's breathing becomes normal again but the doctor decides to still look at Eva. After he was done all he said,

"Her lungs must have gotten a little weak after giving birth, they should get stronger in a few days." Aikka thanked the doctor and walked by Eva's side of the bed with Mia still in his arms watching his queen sleep.

"I hope the doctor is right about her getting stronger in a few days." Aikka thought and he left their room to put their young one in her crib for the night. What Aikka didn't know is that Eva was going to get worse when time comes.
