I came home from shopping with Maya.She immediately wiggled out of my grasp.I placed her down.She ran with her tiny legs to her mom who was sitting in the couch.
I heard maya crying.I placed the items down and went in.Maya wanted muina to Carry her,but muina didn't.
Muina: take her away from me(she said with tears in her eyes.She was actually coughing out blood and didn't want to touch Maya.She looked so weak) what are you waiting for Malik?
(I noded and carried a crying Maya)
Maya:mama

Malik:does it hurt so bad?(she noded.I carried her to our bedroom and helped take her clothes off,her clothes were soiled with blood)Muina: are you not disgusted by me?
Malik;no, and it's not even because am a doctor.I am your husband and nothing of yours disgusts me, now get your cute ass in the shower.(She giggled.I helped her take a bath and got her dressed.I helped her lay down and fed her.I gave her medicine and made her sleep in my arms)
