"What happened to her?" Jalal ask as he scope her up bridal style and they both rush out of the bedroom.

"I don't know i just came in and found her on the bathroom floor,"lailah say as she open the car passenger backdoor for her husband, he drop her inside with a sigh and close the door shut.

" what happened to her jalal.
Is she going to be fine? "Lailah ask worriedly as she feel some tears leaving her eyes making her husband to smile weakly at her.

" she will be fine insha Allah."jalal say as he drive out of the house holding his wife hand squeezing it in reassuring gesture.

Once at the hospital afrah is loaded on the stretcher and wheel into the theatre room, jalal hug his wife who's pacing in front of the theatre room.

"She will be fine lailah." Jalal say comforting his wife, he try to comprehend what exactly happen but decide to push that thought back,
Ever since afrah walk into the door of there house there life have completely turn upside down it's one problem they are dealing with or the other, he do made up his mind once she's alright he will work for a transfer for her so she can go complete her services with her mum.

"What am i going to say to my sister
That i cannot take care of her daughter, I'm very......I feel so stupid jalal." Lailah cry and jalal sigh as he sit her on one of the chair by the theatre room.

"None of this is your fault lailah,
You are a very good aunt and we don't even know what's wrong with her yet so don't blame any of this on yourself." Jalal say and sit next to his wife hugging her to his chest.

After an agonizing 45minutes of waiting the door to the theatre open both jalal and his wife rush to the doctor who smile at them making the two to release a heavy breathe.

"She's fine but she will be out for some times, can we maybe talk a little in my office." The doctor say and jalal node.

"Sure,
You lead the way." He say as he hold his wife hand whispering encouraging words to her ear.

"Have a sit.*the doctor say pointing to the two chair opposite his desk as he sit on the office chair behind the desk.

" is she going to be alright?"lailah ask the doctor as jalal hold her hand and place a gentle kiss on the back of her hand.

"Yeah.
Actually she was poisoned." The doctor say and both jalal and his wife give him a dumbfounded look.

"Poisoned?
Nobody will want to poisoned her,
Are you sure about this doctor?" Lailah say as jalal place a comforting hand to her shoulder.

"Ma,am it's either she was poisoned or she try committing suicide,
Is she sort of going through a depression or something?" The doctor ask and lailah snort.

"My niece is perfectly fine,
There must be something wrong somewhere,
Thank you very much for your time." Lailah say and storm out of the office as jalal give the doctor an apologetic look before following his wife.

"Why will she want to commit suicide,
This doesn't make any sense." Lailah say once her husband meet up with her.

Jalal try to make a sense out of what the doctor say and his mind wander back to earlier that morning in the kitchen and his face darken.

"Did you prepare the pancake this morning?" Jalal ask and lailah give him a confuse look.

"I was about to then i get this urgent call from the restaurant and i left afrah to fry the pancakes,
Why are you even talking about a pancakes this moment." Lailah say with s frustrated sigh and jalal keep quiet.

There's no way his wife will ever going to believe him if he tell her that afrah try poisoning her, he will just have to figure out a way to make afrah agree to what she did.

"Are you even listening to me!" His wife snap making him to look up.

"This trip is cancel." Lailah say and jalal look at his wife confuse.

"Bu...but why?
Lailah afrah will be fine and we will leave besides the flight is in the evening." Jalal say and lailah sigh.

"I can't go and leave afrah in this kind of state, besides sadiq called earlier my sister is sick, with all this Chaos even if i go to this trip my mind won't be at rest." Lailah say as she remove her ringing phone from her pocket.

"Yes sadiq." Lailah say placing the phone to her ear as jalal sigh.

Jalal watch as his wife expression changes from sad, to fear , her hand begin trembling and the phone slip from her palms colliding to the floor.

"Lailah." Jalal say and hold his wife before she reaches the ground as he scream for the nurses to come help him.
