Harris' pov

I went back to dinas room after I had finished praying and said my salams to Dinas mum and dad. It had been half an hour and the doctor still hadn't came back. Dina was cleaned up she had had a shower and had worn her red silk robe. She was still crying tho. She was dabbing her eyes with her tissue and dinas mum was ssat next to her trying to comfort her while her dad was sat on the chair leaning forward and trying to reassure his daughter that things would be fine.

The doctor walked in. Dinas mother and father got up and left the room.

"We're going to be in the waiting room Harris, let us know what goes on" Mr Waleed said to me quietly patting my back as him and his wife left the room.

"Will do Mr waleed" I replied. I went and sat next to Dina with my arm around her.

"Dina" the doctor began.

"After doing quiet a few checks on your son we've identified the problem."

"Problem, bismillah" she whispered so only I could hear.

"Your child has Patent Ductus Arteriousus, also knows as PDA. this is a condition where the baby only has one artery and therefore it's heart cannot function properly. The cause of it is unknown however we believe that the baby being born prematurely plays a big role in this. Moving forward the baby will need to have surgery as his breathing is not regular and postponing this could lead to further health problems and throughout its childhood will have to take medication regularly and will have to come to hospital often to make sure everything is maintained. I'm very sorry" the doctor finished.

I was shocked. I got up and faced the wall.

I thought it was going to be healthy

I thought it was going to be healthy. I thought it was going to be safe. I thought we would be able to take him home soon. Poor baby's gonna be in the hospital for the first few weeks of his fucking life. I had to calm down. I took a deep breath. I looked beside me and saw Dina with her head burried in her hands. Tears that no amount of tissue could prevent.
