The security man opened the door for us and we walked in.
My mother-in-law smiled at me.
Come and hug me. She muttered.
I glance at my husband still holding him tightly.
He gave me an assuring smile.
Go, I'm here she won't harm you. My husband muttered.I exempt my hand from his and walk to her.
Every step I take feels like I'm being forced to move.
She opens her arm for me and I hug her.
I briskly exempt myself from the hug.My husband walks to us to ease the tension between us.
I heave a sigh. I have the back to hide in case my mother-in-law strangles me.
Mama started crying.
I and my husband give her a quizzical look.Mama, why are you crying? We asked simultaneously.
Aisha, I'm sorry. Please forgive me.
I know I don't deserve your forgiveness.
I killed my grandchild. I'm a monster.
Mama muttered hitting her head.No, Mama. You are not a monster. I have forgiven you. I muttered.
I flick back my tears. She reminds me of the pain.
It's been three months since I Lost my baby.
Thank you, Aisha. Mama muttered.It's okay, I wipe off her tears.
Mama, we brought you lunch.
I take her to the plastic chair beside her bed and sit her down.
I squat Infront of her and take out the food flask from the basket.I take the plate and put one wrap of semolina on the plate.
I sprinkle the okra soup on the side of the swallow.I cut a little size and stretch my hands towards her mouth.
She opened her mouth and take the swallow.
I keep doing that until she finishes eating.
I took the bottle of water and gave her.Aisha, you haven't fed my friend. She is hungry too. Mama muttered.
Okay, I will feed her too. I muttered.
I stand up and stride out to wash my hands.
I turn to leave when I bump into someone.
My heart skipped. I almost screamed Immediately I set my eyes on a woman from the psychiatric ward.I'm sorry, I muttered and quickly stride out of there.
She holds me back.
Please let go of me. I muttered worriedly.
I almost pee on my pant with fear.
Her grip on me becomes tight.
Qalb! I screamed.
I closed my eyes expecting the worst to happen to me.I felt a hand jerk me.
Please let me go. I muttered shakingly.
Noor, it's me. My husband whispered in my ear.
I opened my eyes and buried my face in his shirt.
My heart keeps beating rapidly.Please, help me with food. I'm hungry. The woman muttered.
I raised my head and glanced at the woman.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. I mean no harm. I just want food.
I saw her feeding that woman and I followed her here. The woman muttered.Noor, let's give her food. My husband muttered and I shook my head.
We walk inside and I take one wrap of semolina and put the soup on the plate.
Qalb, I don't want to give her our plate.
I won't take this plate home. I muttered.My husband Humm and I feel remorseful for saying that.
His mom is also in this condition.
We walk to the woman and give her the food and a bottle of water.
She was so happy and she hungrily munched on the food.Qalb, I'm sorry for what I said earlier. I muttered.
It's okay. My husband muttered curtly.
We walked inside and met Mama sleeping.
Should we go home? My husband asks me.
Yes. I muttered.My husband walked to his mom and adjusted her head on the pillow.
He pecks her on her forehead and wipes off his tears.
Let's go. My husband muttered with a sniff.
I hold him back.
Qalb, please be strong for her. You always cry anytime you visit Mama. I muttered.
