I opened my weary eyes. Everything was blurry. There was something continuously beeping around me. I blinked my eyes twice before opening it fully. I realized myself in the hospital. That's when everything came stumbling down in my mind. Peanuts. Allergy. Breathing problem. Zain carrying me and finally me passing out.

I raised my hand to check for hives "Ow!" It hurts.

"Hey! Careful" Zain stormed towards me. He placed my IV hooked hand carefully back on bed.

"How are you feeling?" He asked taking seat on the chair next to the bed.

"My head is heavy, skin is still burning, throat is quite better but still on fire, apart from all these, I'm wonderful" I winked him.

"You scared the hell out of me, Kashaf"

"Sorry" I gave him my best cute smile.

He returned my smile back. How I wish he could forgive me for changing those papers! Wait, I didn't apologize to him yet.

"Zain, I'm sorry" I said taking a deep breath.

He gave me a puzzled look. "I'm sorry for changing the papers. I never thought it would go this far" His expressions tensed. "I'm sorry" I whispered. I feel guilty for it. I would never do that to him, after all he is my husband.

He held a faint smile "Its okay" he muttered. But its not okay.

"I'm sorry, Zain. Really I am...."

"Kashaf, its okay!" He let out a chuckle. "Its fine. We can't do anything now. What happened is happened" He stroked my hair lightly.

I could not help but notice his prominent cheek bone. His touch shooed all my pains away. Okay! At least they are not bothering me now. Can't we just be like this always?

"How much is your loss?" I asked as if I could pay that money back.

"Some few hundred crores" he said with a shrug.

What? Few hundred. Really Kashaf? You call that a prank? "Zain, I'm so sorry. I didn't know about it"

"Stop it woman! If I say one more sorry, I will throw up everything I had right here" He tried to a stern look but failed miserably, cracking into deep laughter. And I joined him.

"When will they discharge me?" I asked coming back from the fit of laughter we had. Seriously this man will make me crazy one day.

"They were waiting for you regain conscious. I will go ask them" he disappeared from the room.

I stared at the door, smiling like an idiot. He cares about me and the most shocking thing, we laughed together. I donno why, or its just today's event, I have this teensy feeling that everything is gonna be fine and just like this, inshaallah.

Apart from these good feelings, there's a part in my heart which is sad and unhappy. Tears filled my eyes as I think. Its nearly one and half months, I have not seen ammi, abbu. I miss them. A lot. To a girl who hardly left their parents, its too much to handle.

This allergy thing is making it hard. The last time when it was this severe, ammi didn't left my side. Abbu bought all my favorite toys and books to the hospital.
