Just let me love you.. again (SEASON I)

chapter 69

"It just shows how much he loves Reem" dada ji said and patted my back

"I wish I could do something for her" I said

"You can! Pray to Allah to make it easy for her, and keep her safe." Maa said

I looked at the time it's been more than an hour since she has been taken inside. I wondered if she is still in the same pain, the thought made me restless.

The door of the labour room opened and the doctor came outside, I ran to her.

"How is Reem? Has the pain stopped?" I asked, the doctor smiled

"Yes Mr Izhaan, the pain stopped" she answered and I sighed in relief

"She is fine now?" I asked again

"She is fine and the baby is also fine" she grinned

"Baby?" I was so relieved to know that Reem was not in pain anymore that I couldn't understand her for a moment.

"Congratulations! Reem has given birth to a healthy baby boy" doctor said and I just stood numb and stared at her

"Mashallah, alhamdulillah" I heard multiple cheery voices behind me.

Tear of joy rolled down my cheek, all I wanted was to put my head down in sujood. I thanked Allah.

"Can I meet Reem?" I asked

"Yes! Only you can go to meet her, rest everyone has to wait till we shift her to the room" the doctor said

"And the baby?" Hayat asked so impatiently that made everyone laugh

"He has been taken to the nursery for general check up, we will bring him soon" doctor answered

"Kamal hai izhaan, tera beta paida hote hi nursery chala gaya (amazing Izhaan your son has gone to nursery right after his birth)" Athar said a lame joke, I just rolled my eyes

"Congratulations beta" dadi hugged me

"To you too" I smiled

Everyone was busy in congratulating each other, I went to Reem. I didn't know how she would react to seeing me.

I opened the door and found her lying down on the bed, she looked tired, I could see she just went through so much, her eyes were closed, carefully I sat next to her and held her hand.

She opened her eyes and looked at me.

"Hey beautiful" I smiled

"Izhaan! Are you ok?" She asked, I smiled

"I should be the one asking you. How are you feeling?"

"That gunshot." She said, and tightened her grip around my hand, "I got so scared" she cried, her tears hurt me

"Jaan please don't cry, look at me. I'm perfectly fine" I said slightly moving back, she looked at me, then she hit my arm. "ow! What was that for?"

"What was the need of kneeling in front of him? You only said that you cannot even lower your gaze in front of a criminal, then why?" She asked, I smiled and put my hand on her cheek, I caressed her cheek with my thumb

"I did it for you, I would have done anything he asked me to do at that moment, just to save you" I said and kissed her hand

"Do you really love me that much?"

"I don't know how much I love you, I only know that I can even die for you, you are my passion, my madness" I dipped every word in love, she beamed

"I'm sorry" she said
