They run a test on me for an hour.

They examined my pulse and touched every inch of my body to make sure that I am 'healthy'.

Darn those chancellors. Alam kong sila na naman ang may pakana nito.

The cute girl doctor put her hands on my lower abdomen, hindi ko alam kung nagdadasal ba siya or exerting some powers on me.

"Our greatest apologies... Your Majesty is infertile."

I feel like the world stop for a moment dahil sa sinabi niya. Hindi makapaniwalang napatingin ako sa lalaking doctor.

"T-tama ba ang dinig ko?"

"Y-your Majesty's health is good in every aspect, except for the fact that you cannot bear a child for something is wrong with your ovary, Your Majesty." The woman doctor said.

Nakayuko lang silang dalawa sa harapan ko.

"I... can't bear a child?..." I'm dumbfounded.

"U-unfortunately your majesty." The man said na mukang kaunti nalang ay luluhod na sa paanan ko.

"I can't...then what can this lowly woman do." My eyes went blank when I met theirs.

"Your Majesty, don't say that!"

Humakbang ako at pumagitna sa kanilang dalawa't magkasabay na tinapik ang balikat nila na mukang kinagulat naman nila.

"Do tell the elder how dejected I am." Seryoso kong bulong sa kanila.

"We're greatly sorry Your majesty!!" They both said in unison, they even tried to grovel on the floor pero pinigil ko sila.

"Do that and you'll be dead. Your shoulders are stiff, make sure to have a good massage after. You're dismissed." Bumalik ako mula sa pagkakasalampak sa sofa.

As the door of my room closes ay nanginginig ang tuhod na umupo ako sa sofa,dahan dahang kumawala ang ngiti sa labi ko.

"HAHAHAHA!" Kanina pa ako nagpipigil ng tawa sa sobrang tuwa.

YES OF COURSE I CANNOT BEAR A CHILD. I'M A MAN AFTER ALL.

Nagpapalakpak ako sa sobrang tuwa, tumalon talon at sumuntok pa sa hangin. But eventually, a realization hits me like a bolt of thunder.

Then what should I do to make myself stay by his side when I already lost my capability as a woman?

Do I still need to?

What if I live out of the palace without worrying about this darn position?

Urgh! Bumulagta ako sa sofa. I look up at the ceiling. Darn that contract that not only binds me to Leviathan but to this whole place as well.

"If only Fisk loves me unconditionally..." I whispered to myself.

"Empress are you alright?!" Agad na dinaluhan ako nilang tatlo, worries are written on their faces.

"Suddenly barging like that gave me a reason to not be." I had a mini heart attack for a second.

"You look like a dried fish right now Empress." Ruth said, hindi ko alam kung saan niya nahugot ang lakas ng loob niya.

"If then you're a squid." Bulalas ko.

They just laugh as if nothing happened. I know that they already know that something is wrong with my body. But they act like it's alright.

"I heard that there's a festival outside the palace tomorrow." I meaningfully look at the three of them.

"We heard nothing about that, Your Majesty." Lady Georgeton said. The three of them smiled deviously.
