Afrah's POV

Heathrow airport, London
2nd December 2019

This is for ameenah1756 for urging us to update

We were there laughing at what Mimi's brother was doing. Even though we don't get along it won't hurt to laugh a little and be free with him right? And we just heard a loud thud and saw mr grumpy pants on the floor breathing heavily. We rushed over to him and Mimi checked his pulse which was not responding and he was not breathing. Mimi carried their suitcase while adnan and the securities helped carry him to the car. We use mimi's car here in London and mine in Nigeria.

We drove him to the Kingston's hospital, London and he was rushed to the emergency with Mimi and Adnan pacing up and down at the hallways with me trying to pacify them. I checked my phone and saw hanan calling me maybe she was worried about why we were late cos she didn't follow us as she had a test tomorrow and Mimi begged me to follow her. I swiped my phone to answer her.

"Hello South African tuber where have you been an worried ya Allah what if you were kidnapped wait, am I talking to the kidnapper no please don't kidnap them they are orphans plea..........." I cut her before she continued

"No please we weren't kidnapped and we are the hospital because mr grumpy pants is sick and is admitted."

"Oh my god what happened to him should I come"?

"No you don't need to come just maybe after your test you can tomorrow and we may and may not come maybe till tomorrow".

"Ok take care and console Mimi for me".

As soon as I cut the call the doctor came out and told us he wants to see us. We followed him to his office before he explained to us that

"Mr Amin has a brain trauma"

"Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi rajiun doctor what happened to him" i managed to voice out after a few minutes cos adnan and mimi were still trying to compose themselves.

"Well its nothing to worry about because we have him under medical survei..........." before he could finish mimi cut him in.

"How can you say that when my brother is there fighting for his life and you say its nothing" she was sobbing harder now while i was trying to pacify her.

"Doctor please enlighten us more" i said.

"Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a disruption in the normal function of the brain that can be caused by a blow, bump or jolt to the head, the head suddenly and violently hitting an object or when an object pierces the skull and enters brain tissue.
Symptoms include amnesia, inability to speak or understand language, mental confusion, difficulty concentrating, difficulty thinking and understanding, inability to create new memories, or inability to recognise common things and recurrent flashbacks of events caused.

"So doctor how can we cure it"? This time it was adnan that asked.

"Medications and therapy are mostly used but when prolonged only surgery works, it seems he has had it for a long time and refused medications and therapy."we nodded.

"But for now we are going to try the therapy on human and see what happens or if he needs the surgery." I nodded because it was the  field of study and we just started so I understood it more than them even though we are just starting.

"Thank you doctor can we see him now"? Mimi asked.

"Erm.. sure you can but by tomorrow because he is still under medical surveillance."
