After that visit a day and night , Rohit went to work on Monday. She stayed alone in the house.
She really wasn't ready to face the neighbours. She ate the breakfast he cooked yet again. She can't beat this Oldman. Sleep later than the dog and wake earlier than a chicken. Not to mention their recent nightlife. No love ,just straight sexual intercourse. Well it brought them closer anyway.
She sighed once again to her breakfast while massaging her waist. Where all men like this ? Amir wasn't this enthusiastic, ever or was he indulging elsewhere so he seemed less needy.
She shook her head to remove the thoughts. And she Cleaned up the kitchen and sitting area. Then she went to the bed and lied down and slept some more. She really was tired these past week was emotionally draining.
She felt heavy , her eyes felt heavy. Her chest was clogged. She tried to speak but couldn't.
Rohit tried to call home from his office. When he saw that she wasn't answering. He stood up and paced a bit in his office. Then he went out and said ",I am leaving for a while. I will come back early tomorrow". He said to his secretary. Then he started driving and called",Khan , how are you ?". He spoke to the car speaker.
"I am alright and you ? How is Amira?". Mr Khan asked.
"I am alright. I am calling because I can't find Amira on the phone. So I am worried. "Mr and Mrs Khan looked at each other concerned. "Should we check on her ?". Mrs Khan asked standing.
"She didn't call you today?". Rohit asked.
"No she hasn't. ".
"Alright. I will be home just now. I will call you when I find her. " Rohit.
"Okay. Be safe friend".Rohit arrived at his house. It was around three pm. Seeing no response he entered the house without even closing the car door. He rushed in.
"Amira! Amira!". He shouted. Reaching his room after checking every room. He reached his room and saw his little wife full of sweat. Her face pink and sweaty. She looked bad.
"Amira!". He touched her face and his hands were shaking. He took a pill quickly on the side table. Then he hurriedly called his friend ",Amira has a fever?".
"What!". Khan said while driving. His wife was shocked by him.
"Fever ? Did she faint?"."No she is feverish. I am taking her to the hospital". He said and dropped the phone.
He bent down ", Almighty give me strength". Then he picked her up gingerly , seeing her outfit he felt his heart race. So he took of her blanket. Dressed her as quickly as possible and covered her head with a hijabi. And picked her up. He felt his waist sting a bit. But he gritted his teeth carried her out of the house in a hurry and got to his four by four. Put her in the back seat with difficulty. Put on a seatbelt. Then he ran back inside took his marriage certificate as well as her ID and the took his wallet and ran out. On running out he met with Khan. Mrs Khan was already by the car touching Amira.
"Let's go. Hurry !". He said closing the gate and entering the car. He started driving fast. He was sweating profusely.
"Move! Move!". He said while hitting the bell.
Mr and Mrs Khan were shocked by this. Shabaaz was always as cool as a cucumber.
He reached the hospital in less than twenty minutes.On reaching there ,he got out and wanted to carry her out again. Mr and Mrs Khan said "No no !". They refused.
"Hey you come here ,help!". They said to some female paramedics.
He said ",I can do it. ". He said adamantly and he picked her put gently and moved her to the bed Mrs Khan pushed towards them as the paramedics seemed slow to her.
",What's the matter! ". Asked a doctor wearing a stethoscope on her shoulder.
"She was fine when I left in the morning but when I came back she was feverish and sweating ". Rohit heaved as caught his breath.
"Ow, can we speak to her husband?". The doctor asked.There was some embarassment on the two old man's faces.
"I am her husband. She was fine when I left". He said seriously."Ow. I understand. I will examine her and tell you. Please follow me you will have to fill in the form for her. "
Rohit nodded.
"They are ?".
"We are her parents. " Said Mrs Khan.The doctor nodded and decided not to be so nosy next time.
After a series of tests the doctor said ",Well she is healthy. Just that she is exhausted and the accident had her uterine walls inflamed
-". Looking at Rohit she wanted to say more but said no more.Rohit said ",You can say anything ".
"Well , it might be difficult for her to conceive children now"."Now ! What about before the accident?". Rohit asked. His face getting angry.
The doctor was worried about the little wife in the room behind her.
"Well she should have been able to conceive normally before. But now because of the accident she has hurt the uterine wall. And also she has syphilis that must be treated. Which means you as well must be treated sir. " Said the Doctor.
Everyone took a breath. Mr and Mrs Khan became guilty.
"Do what ever it takes to heal her. We will do the treatment afterwards ". He said to the Doctor.
The doctor nodded quickly. Realising she talks too much. So she ran off.
"Shabaaz _". Began Khan.
"It's alright. It is alright. No need to explain. We all know the kind of person she is. She is a victim as well. " Rohit said.
Mrs Khan bobbed her head fast as if she can prove her daughter's innocence. She was once married before. It's not like she was a virgin. But she was one of the most conservative girls in the area. So Rohit had no doubt.
"Amir divorced her cause she has no kids. But she had no problem before the accident. So what's the matter? Can it be him who is problematic?". Asked Rohit.
Mr and Mrs Khan looked at each other and said", You still want children?". They asked.
"I don't. Amira might. You see no one blames Amir for cheating and throwing her out. But if he is wrong and she is not the problem then he aggrieved our Amira for no reason ". Rohit said.
",Ow ...ow my God!". Mrs Khan gasped.
"You are right. But what if God never wanted the two to have children together?""Well I hope so for his sake. Otherwise I will make him pay for this". Rohit said angrily.
The couple nodded.
Then they were allowed to visit. They looked at her pale face on a single ward paid for by Rohit. On her finger sat a heavy wedding ring. Her fever went down. She was breathing better now.
Rohit breathed a sigh of relief.
"She must be exhausted from always trying to look positive these past few months. So when she finally relaxed the tight spring lapsed and she is now forced under. " He said seriously behind his glasses.
", My poor baby!". Cried Mrs Khan.
Meanwhile in the Abdallah household the little baby was crying out loud his lungs very steady. His mother was sitting on the bed with her phone.
"Can't you hear the child crying ?". Said Amir entering the room and went to the walk in wardrobe took his clothes and went to the bath.
"He is your son too". She replied and continued to chat on the phone.
He shook his head and went to bath.
Abdallah couple just sat in the dining area with tea and if you ignored the loud screeching baby you would think they were in a hotel."You are really not going to help?". Asked Mr Abdallah.
"No. Since they can conceive then they should look after their own baby. " She snorted and drank her own tea. She is still missing her Amira. Whom she fought to be her daughter in law and only for her son to cheat. She is still angry. Cheat or not , look at the kind of daughter in law he brought ? A complete disaster.She is disgusted completely.
