"D-Don't be, I just rather not talk a-about his passing"
He nodded, understanding
???: "Now then-shall we get started, m'dear? I think we might be really close to something-"
Her eyes lit up
"R-Really!?"
He smiled and looked to the side a bit, he looked a bit tense and...odd
"....Oh...."
She turned to him
"K-Kai, you don't have to stay-"
"N-Nah, it's a-alright...just still getting used to...nvm.."
"..."
She gave him a small, reassuring smile, squeezing his hand
He looked back and smiled a bit, his hand squeezing back
Her heart warmed a little at seeing him smile, blushing lightly. The doctor cleared his throat
???: "Ahem-well then, shall we begin?"
"O-oh-um-"
An official popped their head in
???: "Your Highness, your press announcement to the people is in 10 minutes..."
"A press announce-? Ugh, man i can't even stay with you for 2 minute without being bothered...hey Cinder, do you think you can stay here if your done early?"
"Oh...sure!"
She smiled and his heart fluttered slightly-he had something to ask herrrrr ;)
