"How are you feeling now Sultanim?" Nur asked. She was wearing a black dress still mourning her husband's death.
"Why what's wrong with you?" My mother asked afraid. I looked at her as she spoke, I almost glared at her too but I know she didn't anything wrong by worrying over me.

"Nothing Validam, I just felt a little ill yesterday that's it" I answered smiling at her to reassure her.
"No, I won't let you sit there not knowing if you're okay or not" my mother stood up and pulled me up from the couch. I glared at Nur who was watching me interact with my mother with a sad look, I'm not sure if she's remembering her own mother or her daughter.
"I am fine mother" I insisted pushing her to sit back down on the couch beside me.

"If you were sick would you like to get your children and husband sick too?" She asked crossing her arms in front of her. She did have a point but I wasn't going to say that, her ego couldn't handle that.

"You are with child" she explained at the puzzled look my mother wore. I sat there on the bed shellshocked and confused.
"Are you not happy my sweetheart?" Mother asked watching my every move.
"Of course I'm happy, just shocked that's all" I answered not looking up from the floor.
