They were at the doctors appointment. Ibrahim had tapping his feet and it drove Neelum insane.

She placed her palm on his knee,
"Ibrahim will you relax ?" She asked ,

He placed his hand on top of hers ,
Giving it a light squeeze.

"Sorry sweetheart ," he apologised .

"Its okay , just relax please" she asked .

"Neelum Ibrahim," the nurse announced,

She turned to her husband , biting her lip,
"Chalein?" She asked , and he nodded.

They entered the doctors office , dr shehla was known to be one of the best gynaecologists .

They were greeted by the nurse,

"Hello , take a seat please" she said ,

"We will run a blood test to confirm you pregnancy and follow it by an ultrasound , just wait here" she said as she took a blood sample ,

They waited for another 45 mins and Dr shehla entered.

"Well the test is positive congratulations!" She said smiling ,
"Lets check how far along are you" she said ,

She had Neelum lay down on the bed as she started her ultra sound ,
"Well, looks to me that you're 8 weeks along" she said ,
Both Neelum and   Ibrahim frowned at eachother ,

"That doesn't make sense ," Neelum said ,
"I got my period last month , aswell as this month" she said ,

"Hmm , some light bleeding can happen initially , it could be due to a number pf reason , residual menstrual blood or stress,but incase that it happens again do take note of the color of the blood aswell as the duration," she said

"If it continues it might cause trauma to the fetus" she said ,
"See right here is your baby's heart," she said as she went on and on, and both of them sat quietly taking in all the information,

When she showed them their baby's heart beating , and Ibrahims hand came to rest on her shoulder and he gave it a slight squeeze.

His thumb rubbing her shoulder.

A few tears leaked from her eyes as she wiped them away, it was truly one of the most overwhelming experiences she had had.

Once they were done with their appointment they stepped out , walking side by side with each other.

The car ride was a silent one aswell.

Ibrahim headed straight to their room, and Neelum followed ,

"Ibrahim?" She asked concerned ,
"Kya hua?" She asked ,

He shook his head, as he sat down,

"I cannot believe you were pregnant when I told you that I didn't want children" Neelum tilted her head not understanding,
"Its okay Ibrahim. I didn't know either , and I'm the mother" she said even though the words sounded foreign to her .

He shook his head,
"Tum meri baat nahi samajh rahi Neelum," he said ,

"I made you go through that kind of stress, you heard what the doctor said , she said that stress caused the bleeding." He said ,shaking his head,

Neelum shook her head,
"Why are you thinking like this ? So what that we had a fight? We resolved it at the end didn't we?" She asked him,

He closed his eyes ,
"I don't want our child to ever feel like I didn't want them" he confessed .
Guilt.

Thats what he was feeling,
"Ibrahim..." she started,
"You literallyhave our childs whole life and another 7 months to make up for one sentence you said." She said shaking her head a smile on her lips.
