Adeel immediately took her to the hospital. By then all the family members had also arrived

The area near Zara's ward was fully silent as the other wards were empty. Adeel and his family sat there, looking worried. Zara's family was also there, praying for her to get better. Her mother was crying, tears rolling down her face. Everyone was quiet, just praying for Zara to recover.

Adeel's mother clutched her prayer beads, her eyes closed, whispering words of supplication. His father sat with his head in his hands, his broad shoulders shaking with silent sobs. Adeel's siblings sat on either side of him, their eyes fixed on the floor, their faces pale with fear.

Adeel himself sat with his elbows on his knees, his face buried in his hands. He couldn't bear the thought of losing Pakhi, not now, not ever. He prayed fervently, his heart pouring out to the Allah, begging for her recovery.

As they prayed, the door to the waiting room opened, and a doctor emerged, his face somber.

" you all can meet her now . But please, only one at a time, and Mr. Adeel you come with me please. "

"Doctor, may I see her first, please?.....he asked

"Sure, but after that, come to my cabin.".....Doctor said and left

Adeel's heart skipped a beat as he stood up, his legs trembling beneath him. He looked at his family, and they nodded, their eyes filled with tears. He took a deep breath and followed the doctor to Zara's ward.

As he entered, he saw Zara lying in the bed, her face pale, her eyes closed. He felt a lump form in his throat as he approached her bedside. He took her hand in his, feeling her weak pulse.

"Please jaldi se theek hojao. I badly need you, please."......he whispered, his voice cracking with emotion.

He sat there, holding her hand, praying for her to open her eyes, to smile at him, to come back to him. The machines beeped around them, a steady rhythm, a reminder of her fragile state.

Adeel's heart was heavy with worry, but he refused to give up hope. He knew Zara was a fighter, and he would fight alongside her, praying for her recovery, for her return to him.

Later he remembered that he also need to meet the Doctor. He stood up and gently kissed on her forehead, and moved out.

One by one all other members visit her. Adeel was with Doctor in his cabin.

"Adeel, please, have a seat," he said, gesturing to one of the chairs.

Adeel sat down, his heart racing with anticipation. "What's Zara's condition, Doctor?" .......he asked, trying to keep his voice steady.

Doctor leaned back in his chair, steepling his fingers together.

"Zara's condition is not good but still stable. And We're doing everything we can to ensure her recovery."

Doctor leaned forward, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"Adeel, is there any tension or stress in Zara's life that could be contributing to her condition? Any problems at home or work?"

Adeel shook his head, feeling a sense of frustration and helplessness.

"No, Doctor, I'm telling you, everything was fine. We were happy, Zara was happy, and then...this happened."

Doctor leaned back in his chair, his eyes never leaving Adeel's face.

"I understand. Well, Adeel, we'll do everything we can to help Zara recover. But I have to ask, have you noticed anything unusual about Zara's behavior recently? Anything that might seem small, but could be important?"
