After we left the lab, i looked at Ahsan with lots of questions in my eyes but he avoided my gaze and quietly walked with Aryan towards the car. I followed him while having princess in my hands and kept praying ayatul Kursi on her till we got home.
After putting princess to sleep and letting Aryan have some fruits, i prepared lunch. Ahsan came to the kitchen wanting to help me but i was on the edge of my patience as he kept talking about random things and not telling me exactly the reason for the blood tests. As he came closer and turned me to face him, my eyes teared up and that was when Ahsan switched off the gas and took me to the living room, and made me sit on the sofa, while he kneeled infront of me and held my hands in his.
"Honey, listen to me, theres nothing to worry about ok? Have faith in Allah (s.w.t) and all shall be well. Its just a normal test which the doctor said is important just to check on her as he feels there might be a genetical disorder with princess but he isnt sure at all thats why the test for us to be sure. Please habibty, dont worry or stress as this will affect you and princess and thats what we dont want right? She needs to grow well and in shaa Allah nothing will be wrong with her."
I couldnt speak so i only nodded my head and walked back to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Next day early morning, Ahsan received a call from the lab that the blood sample they took wasnt sufficient and need to re-do the drawing of blood. As we had no option, we agreed and took princess.
Again the pain for my baby as her veins couldnt be spotted as she was very tiny still. She cried and cried and Ahsan and i looked at her helplessly because we couldn't stop her pain.
"Ya Allah, please help my child." Ahsan said and from his voice i could feel that he Was breaking seeing his daughter in pain but for us he tried to be strong.
Immediately they finished, he took her in his hands and kissed her forehead and held onto her as though his life depended on it.
Everyday we would act like everything is normal and take care of our kids while Ahsan resumed work but both of us had the nagging feeling about the results. Everyday Ahsan would check with their website as he had been given a tracking number to know whats happening. We would cry to our Lord in every prayer that she would have no issues in shaa Allah.
