Yusuf Pov
So here I am waiting for uncle Omar. It took him a while. I had given my blood test in the morning and I am waiting for the results. In sha Allah everything will be alright. I hope Uncle Omar didn't inform my parents that I came to see him since my parents will be worried.
"Mr Yusuf , Doctor wants to see you now. " The nurse told me.
I knocked on the door and went inside . Uncle Omar was stressed about something.
"How was it ? I mean the results. Is something wrong ? You look worried!" I asked him.
"Yusuf how long have you been having this headache?" he asked me.
"For about 2-3 months but i thought it was normal headache as i was stressed at work and took painkillers. Why? Is something wrong?" i asked him.
"You should have done those tests earlier, at least we could have save you! Now it's too late. I'm sorry to say this but as a doctor it is my duty to tell you this as soon as possible. " he said.
I was getting really anxious to know what was it? what does he mean by is too late?
"Uncle Omar, be frank and tell me what is it about? " i told him.
"I am sorry to say this Yusuf, but from your test results it shows that you have Blood Cancer!" he told me.
I was shaken by what the doctor say what can i do now ? my marriage is in 1 month time. How am i going to tell this to my parents and Jassmin.
"But doctor, isnt there treatment like chemotherapy? or any other medications?" i asked him hoping that there should be a way to treat this.
" I am sorry again but there isnt anyway to treat your Cancer which is in Stage 4 " he said .
"Is better to tell your parents and everyone." the doctor told me.
"NOPE, please promise me you wont say anything to my parents. I dont them to know they will feel sad and moreover they will blame themselves for not taking care of me."
The doctor had promised me not to tell anyone about this. With that I left the hospital, i know that Allah (SAW) has plans for us. I should appreciate that whatever he does is for good and shouldn't complain. Everything shall happen according to his plans.
Jassmin Pov
After talking to Aisha i went back home, my mum was on the phone talking to our relatives. I really couldnt believe what Aisha had told me. I went to my room and prayed Asr and lied down on my bed. As i was scrolling through my Facebook i saw an article about Syria been attacked. i felt bad and made dua for them. Seeing the kids losing their parents and siblings made me cry and they didnt have any food to eat. I saw a donation link asking for donation so that the kids can have proper meal. I decided to donate for them. Wasting my money by buying my wants isnt what Allah has ordered us to do, we should give some money in charity which is also known as Sadaqah. After donating money, i opened my Watsapp. Surprisingly, there wasnt any messages from Yusuf. Maybe he is busy i guess.
I heard a knock on the door and it was my mum.
"Jassmin we will be getting your wedding dress tomorrow afternoon with your cousin Fatimah." My mum said.
"Hmm sure" I told my mum.
"Is something bothering you? You seemed upset" my mum asked .
"Nothing mum is just that i am having headache. that's all" i told my mum i dont wish to inform her about Aisha.
Aisha Pov
"I shouldn't have done this! I shouldn't say that!" i shouted at myself for being so stupid. How can i yell at Jassmin. I thought to myself and was about to call her when my brother Amin knocked on my door.
"i see you are awake! i dont wish to scold you aisha, but what you did just now was not good. I know Jassmin is your best friend but you cannot shout at her like that. Anyways i did talk to her and she seemed quite hurtful . Did you talk to her or something?"
"I was about to call her but you came in. What did you tell her ? Arent you really upset? I mean i know how much you love her?" i asked my brother.
I know he is upset but he just put a mask on pretending that he is alright. How i wish everything would be fine.
"I told her i will try to move on. But it will take sometime to move on." i told her.
"Ya true brother, you can be thinking of her as she is going to be someone's wife soon and promise me that you will get married."
" I promise aisha i will get married In Sha Allah (if Allah wills) i am going to meet my friends at the masjid. Allah hafiz!" with that my brother left.
After he left I picked up my phone to call Jassmin. She picked up the call within the third ring.
"Assalamaklium Jassmin, before you say anything, i am sorry for what i have done. I really didnt mean to shout at you. I am very sorry. "
"Walakium salam, it is okay. I didnt take it seriously. I was just upset that you ignored me all these days by not replying to my messages and answering my calls . "
" Is okay i am really sorry so my cutie pie how are you doing? How's your preparation for your wedding?"
"Alhamduillah it's good and the preparation are going on well. Tomorrow i am going to get my wedding dress. Aisha can you follow me please ? I want my best friend to be part of my wedding. I am not forcing you.'
"In Sha Allah i will come, do update me the timing to meet and once again i am really sorry"
"I will do and thanks for understanding me. I knew that our fights wont last long. heheh" with that i hang up the phone call.
I am happy that Jassmin has forgiven me and my brother has promised me to marry and forget Jassmin and be happy with his life. Indeed, Allah has plans for all of us.
