"Baby I'm sorry, we can't do anything about it" he said going close to her and envelop her into a hug

"No, I must be dreaming"

"You are not dreaming Nafeesa its the truth"

"It can't be, if it is because I'm sick, I'm alright now, I will take my medicine, Abdussamad you have to believe me, I'm not sick anymore" she said busting into tears
