Sometimes being brave is necessary

Saturday

Ammamih seems to be getting better
I guess,she says so but seems weak.

"Tell your mother I'm grateful"i heard Ammamih said closing the door
Holding what seems like bed sheet and duvet in a transparent bag then a brief case.

"What's going on?"I asked approaching Her

"Come lets see"she said smiling weakly

We sat on the sofa,she unlocks the brief case I was expecting to see something or money I saw kitchen utensils

"Ammamih!we have enough utensils"i said looking at the set of utensils

"It's for you dear,when you marry"she said pulling my cheeks softly

I opened my mouth because I was speechless
Could she do arrange marriage for me with Faisal?cause he acts like an angel around her
Could this be a twist in my life?
Arranged at seventeen?

"Im too young for that!"i exclaimed nervously

"When you find the right guy.you won't say that"she said with a little sparkle in her eyes
I knew she was thinking of Abbabuh

And I smiled because my Ammamih is always right

"I seem to have a blurry memory of him"i said recalling someone

"Who?"she asked with raised brows

"Numan" I replied smiling

"Well you were young when they left but he was your closest friend" she said placing her hand on mine softly

"That's Nice,too bad we lost contact" I said looking at the bed sheet

Ammamih coughs softly

"Sorry" i said patting her back

"Thank You,take it to my room"she said after a while

I took hold of the things and left to her room.

"Your phone has been ringing Ammamih"i said walking into the room till I notice her unconscious on the carpet

"Ya Allah!"I cried
I could feel my tears on my cheeks

I rushed to her trying to wake her

I poured water on her face softly and she opened her eyes.

"You are not okay Ammamih please lets go for another check up
Please or I will call my brothers"i said with cracking voice

"You are right,i still feel pain.im sorry"she said sadly
And right then I knew she was really in pain

"I will get your hijab and your bag" I said trying to help her sit up

After she got ready,i wore my hijab and we walked outside and we met a big surprise outside.

"Ammamih"Jamal,Kamal and Salim called in unison

"What are you all three doing here?"she asked in a surprised tone

"We were given mid semester break and we decided to come spend it with you
What is wrong?"Jamal replied

"Ammamih is not feeling okay again,i think she needs a test"i said sadly

Salim quickly took their things to the house before rushing back.

"Then let's go"Kamal said stopping a taxi

"You will be alright in sha Allah" Jamal said softly 

"In sha Allah" and we all said in unison with hopeful thoughts

And the ride to the hospital in the taxi was very quiet

We arrived at the central hospital and we went straight to the receptionist.
Ammamih insists we go to the hospital because they don't charge like other hospitals and it's true.

"Does she have a file with us?"the receptionist asked

"No,but she needs to see the doctor urgently"Salim replied

"Just pay five hundred naira and we will open the file"she said smiling softly

"Okay"Jamal said then he walked towards the cashier to pay

After Jamal paid,they opened a file and we waited for her name to be called.

"Hauwa Bashir" the nurse called

"Yes"Ammamih answered

She got up and i followed her

"Good afternoon,what is wrong madam?"the doctor who seem to be in his early forties asked
I read his name tag and it says"doctor Chide"

"Good afternoon,I have pain at the right side of my stomach all the time.i visited a hospital and it stopped but now it's worst"Ammamih spoke drawing my attention from the doctor

"Okay,you will go for scanning"he said
"And whatever is there will determine the treatment"he added smiling

"Thank you Doctor"she said getting up gently

"You are welcome" he assured

We left to the scanning ward,i waited outside and after some minutes Ammamih came back.

"They said they will send the CD to the doctor"she said

"Okay should we go back to the doctor?"i asked

"Yes"she replied

We went back to the doctor's office and he seemed distressed

"I saw the scanning they sent through my system
I'm sorry Mrs Bashir but we have to admit you here
You have an infection"he said with his brows furrowed

"But,my children..."she began but i had to interrupt
she always think of us

"Ammamih worry about your health,i mean I'm seventeen.we need you to recover your illness makes us feel terrible"
I said and she pulled me into a warming hug

The hug only she can give.



Ammamih💔.
