CHAPTER TWO

AZAAN

I didn’t wake up early and I forgot to set up an alarm yesterday because I didn’t sleep till 3:14 am, I stand and match over to the bathroom, after I brushed and showered, I open my closet and bring out the clothes am going to wear and the one’s I will be traveling with.

As I am arranging my clothes in the suitcase, my mom’s call came through, we exchange pleasantries and tells her to get ready before I come over.

After I am done with everything, while trying to start my car, taheera's call came through again but I didn’t pick up I let the call drop and then off my phone.

Don’t get me wrong T can be so annoying sometimes and I don’t want to argue with her right now.

I drive to my mom’s place after I started the engine, I arrive on time because I speed up. I found my mom and her younger sister aunty hajara in the parlor waiting for me.

“are you ready?” I ask directing the question to my aunt and my mother nods

“are these the only luggage” I ask

My mother mouthed a yes and my aunt wander towards my mom and grab the handle of her wheelchair and pushes her to the car outside the house.

On our way to the airport, mama told me that taheera called and greeted her yesterday night, she keeps on blabbing about how kind and thoughtful taheera was. Well yes taheera is lovely but she can be annoying at time which what farida is not.

We arrived late in the evening and went straight to the hospital vip ward where my mom will be staying till she recovers

“Everything is ready, and don’t worry the surgery will be a successful one insha Allah ” the doctor says through the phone

“but when do you think she will regain her consciousness after the surgery” I says

“Well, as a matter of fact I can’t tell you that in specific but she will regain her consciousness sooner or later” he spiels

“ok doc thank you and please take a very good care of my mother” I pleaded

“sure Mr. Azaan, our patient’s health being is our first priority so relax don’t get in a flusher” the doctor pacifies

After my call with the doctor I called my aunt who is with my mom at the hospital while I am here in a hotel room.

“Azaan are you on your way to the hospital?” aunt asks

“No aunt but I will be there in a bit…is there anything you need?” I says grabbing my car key from the bed

“No the hospital provide everything we needs it’s just that your mother want to have a word with you”

“Ok I am on my way”

The call dropped and the Uber drives me to the hospital. As soon as I get there, I went straight to the VIP ward and knock on room 22 door.
