Abuja,
Nigeria.
She was rushed to the emergency department first, where the medical team sprang into action by quickly assessing her condition. They focused on her breathing, heart rate, and oxygen levels. After which she was moved to the ICU for close monitoring,hydration, and medical adjustments.
The doctors were glad and expressed their relief that she was brought to the hospital despite the delay, due to the severity of her asthma attack.
Earlier when her driver went to pick her up from school and couldn't find her he informed Riyad about it , no matter how little a problem is they have to report at the exact time before anything else comes up.
Riyad, Tariq, and mubeen were going back home at the time her driver called, so Tariq being the genius he is at his hobby , he easily tracked down her phone's location. That's how they found out that she was at a shopping mall, Riyad couldn't help but chuckle slightly amused by her little runaway.
One thing he has learned to come in terms with about her is she never Abide by rules. On their arrival at the mall, they found her being forced into the car she was almost kidnapped, that was how they chased the car hitherto.
As of present, they were all seated at their own private part of the hospital not really patiently but worriedly waiting for her to wakeup. the doctor said that she can be transferred to the room afterwards if her respiratory status has improved, and her vital signs are stable, ranging from the next 6 to 18 hours since she had spent the last 18 hours in the ICU. Abu and Anna were also informed, they came by with a sobbing aylah who had no idea about what was happening till when she was told. Only if she knew that her birthday present was the bait used to set up a trap for her, only if.
Tariq had to be inquiring about her every now and then, Riyad couldn't help but be worried since she wasn't waking up, after all who is he going to be picking on if she doesn't wake up?, mubeen had paced to and fro worry clearly etched on his face before sitting down next to aylah, Anna was silently supplicating, whereby abu was planning out how to tighten the security around them, lost in his thoughts, Aylah was still a sobbing mess, only mubeen had acknowledged her sobs to be patting her shoulder once in a while trying to console her.

As she slowly regained consciousness, her mind foggy and disoriented, her eyelids slowly fluttered open. The harsh hospital lights above pierced her eyes making her squint them. Her eyes trailed of from the lights to take in the unfamiliar environment that assaulted her nose with the sterile smell and the antiseptic-white walls her eyes landed on.
Her eyes met Riyad's, and it was like time had frozen, suddenly making all the people present invisible , there is something about the way his eyes stared back at her that she can't decipher .or is it the flicker of emotion she saw in them? Maybe she's just imagining things or so she thought.
" hey " Aylah waved her hand at her face, " making the both of them look away " she's up, Alhamdulillah" Anna muttered bringing out Abu and Tariq from their train of thoughts.
She forced a smile on her face, trying to recall how she ended up at the hospital.
"Water" she croaked, which made Aylah stood, quickly pouring a bottle water in a glass cup whereas Anna helped her up to drink the water.
They bombarded her with questions about how she's feeling till she got fed up and started to give them sarcastic replies then Mubeen went to seek for their doctor.
