  He was rushed to the A & E ward. Maryam and her team did every possible thing to make him stable. After running a lot of tests, she found out his blood pressure is  high which made him to faint. He was taken to a private room while she went out to inform his father and step mother about his condition.  

She was sitting comfortably on her office chair, going through a patient's file when she heard a soft knock on the door. "Come in," she says while still going through the file. He walked in and majestically sat on the chair provided for patients. "Hope I am not disturbing," he started. That was when she raised her head up to look at him. "Oh Yaya Mujahid."

She had no-one standing by her side. She never told Aydah and Mahmud was still at the hospital. "Why?" She questioned as she looked at the off white pillow. She let a soft giggle escape.

She rocked herself back and forth as she tried to forget everything about him which was not possible
