Saif you have a high fever, when you came home in the rain yesterday you didn't change, "No, I didn't think I was so wet." I sent him for a hot shower and meanwhile I pulled out his clothes . Then I left the room to clear the table and told Dania to start cooking the soup. As I waited for Saif to come out of the bathroom I got a good look at his room. Even though he was hardly ever home, I'd never entered in his room. He had a picture of him as a baby by the left side of his bed. He was really a beautiful boy and while I was looking at that photo Saif called me, what did he want, he already had his clothes inside and I asked him what I had to pass him.

"I'm dressed you can come to the bathroom", even if I didn't want to but I went in, he was sick and therefore I didn't want to have discussions of any kind. "I feel tired and exhausted, so I don't feel like drying my hair", but how you don't feel like... it takes you two minutes and then if you don't dry you will feel even worse. He was leaving the bathroom when I stopped him and told him I would dry his hair. As I passed the hair dryer, I could see in the mirror that he was looking at me and I was thinking that he looked really good in casual clothes. Afterwards i took him to bed, covered him well and took his temperature. When I brought him the soup he really didn't want to eat anything, but he had to eat something to take the medicine after.

I gave him two spoons, he was grouchy but in the end he finished it all. I came to ask Dania for medicines and she said "Mr Saif hates taking medicines" but as he ate the soup he would also take medicines. And so it was, he threw a tantrum as if he was a child but he ate everything, after I sent him to sleep, I closed the curtains and covered him well with the duvet. While Saif was sleeping I prayed and then went to the kitchen to prepare him something for the evening. I was undecided to give him more soup or make him a light risottro, but I knew he would have complained about the soup so I preferred to make risotto. It took a while to get everything ready, I went to see Saif who was sleeping, when I put my hand to feel the fever, he seemed to be better but not much.

I woke him up, because I had to feed him like babies since alone he didn't eat anything. As soon as he woke up I sent him to freshen up and when I entered in the room with dinner he made a face to say No!. "Eshaal, I don't feel like eating anything, give me the medicine directly", never take the medicine without having eaten something, "I don't feel like it, I feel bad, come on please I don't want to eat". I didn't listen to any of the his complaints and I started feeding him. "But you know it's not that bad" I know Saif, and then you're hungry so you would be fine with anything you eat.

He commented for every spoonful of rice he ate though at the time of medicines he had really refused. Saif, don't be a child, they are important for healing, "I don't like them and therefore no!", Saif nobody likes them but you have to... now give me your hand and don't throw a tantrum, "No! My answer doesn't change". I couldn't wait for him so I took the three medicines he had to take and as I did with the food I brought them close to his mouth and forced him to swallow them. He was perplexed by what I had done but I had no choice. Afterwards Dania had come to pick up plates and to tell me that dinner was served, I was about to tell her I was coming when Saif said "bring Mrs. Eshaal's dinner here" and she nodded and immediately served me to Saif's room.

I was starting to eat when I saw Saif about to open a work file and I immediately got up to stop him. You're sick don't touch nothing of work, "But I'm bored, and then I feel pretty good" he finished the sentence weaving. Yes, yes, it can be seen, leave everything and rest, after all, you have to start with these things, I said, eating. "Why do I have to eat that and you this?", I laughed at his innocence and I said that he was ill, but I was fine. I was continuing to eat when he got out of bed and came over to me on the sofa. Do you need something?, "Well no, I was bored on the bed so I came here", I wasn't very sure of the answer but I continued to eat and after a while he was there I don't know why but I brought the spoon closer to him, which he accepted very happy. "You see this, it's more tastier, even if I don't feel any taste having my nostrils plugged but it's good all the same". Saif my goodness how whiny you are.

I was getting up to go put the dishes out when he stopped me and called Dania to take them away. But why, I could go too, "Since you're here now, your time is mine." I had a lot to comment on his sentence but I didn't and sent him to bed because it was already late. "I'm not sleepy, I woke up a few hours ago", if you try to close your eyes trust me you will get sleepy, and so he immediately closed his eyes. About fifteen minutes had passed, looking at him I thought about how I take care of him just like a mother and I was about to go but he took my hand "I'm awake!". But you were sleeping a few seconds ago ,"Not really, you told me to close my eyes but I didn't get sleepy", Hahaha, Saif you were to not only close your eyes but also try to sleep. "I tried but I'm not sleepy and now you tell me a story", I don't know any story, you think about sleeping because it's late. Today things came spontaneously to me even if I didn't want to do them, they do .

Even though I didn't want to, I got on the bed and sat next to him and started massaging his hair. He had super soft smelling hair, even though I wasn't too close to him I could smell him and the warmth of him. Shortly after I was massaging his hair I saw him asleep and this time for real. I slowly got up and when I was about to go to my room I stopped because maybe it was better to stay here with him and so I decided to rest on the sofa.

It was late at night when I woke up because Saif was asking me something while he was sleeping. I immediately got up and when I got closer I saw that he had a winged fever again. I was in total panic he was sweating and burning with fever so I pulled his duvet off and immediately went out to prepare the washcloth with cold water. I did everything in a hurry because I knew Saif was waiting for me and immediately joined him in the room. I pulled a chair up to the bed and started putting the wet washcloth on his forehead in the hopes that his fever would go down . After a while of doing this,first I preferred to give him the fever medicine and continued with this for about an hour. The fever was coming down and the situation had calmed down. I was terrified to see him like this, it was one of the first times I'd seen him so weak. I wanted to go to put things down in the kitchen but Saif had been holding my hand so I didn't want to move.

SAIF
I woke up early in the morning to find Eshaal asleep in the chair and me holding her hand. I sat on the bed trying not to wake her up and stared at her for a while. She was so beautiful, she is the woman I loved and who knows when things will be normal between us. I could see that while she was sleeping she was bothered by her hair so I tried to move them but I saw movement in her and I immediately lay down and closed my eyes.
