Our Destiny

Chapter 35- Family Bonding. (Edited)

Once again I apologise for taking soooo lonnggg to update I have been really busy lately with my revision that I haven't had time to update and also bearing in mind I have NO IDEA WHATSOEVER about being pregnant and giving birth but I will edit and add more details to this book completely when I have finished this book and gained more consciousness as I started this book a couple months before turning thirteen and now I am fourteen lol and still haven't progressed much.

Aaliya's POV

Raucous cries could be heard echoing through the room, as I opened my eyes and felt an empty space beside me. I turned around to find Amir standing by the window with Ariyah in his arms, moving her back and forth trying to calm her down.

I gradually and delicately got out of my bed and walked towards him, my heart warming up as I have finally given a child that has his blood, I mean don't get me wrong he treasures Amira like his own, but having a child of your own blood is an astounding feeling.

"How long has she been crying for?" I asked him whilst arranging my head on his shoulder, Ariyan was sleeping and I knew why she was crying.

"About 10 minutes and did you know the doctors said we can hold them as long as it isn't for too long and we don't expose them to anything dangerous," he said with enthusiasm clear in his voice as I shook my head, dumbfounded as I didn't know that.

"No, I didn't, I am so thrilled, but I think I know why she is crying," I said as I gently took Ariyah from his arms and placed her in my own and gently walked towards the bed as Amir stayed staring at the magnificent sunset.

After I was done feeding Ariyah she began playing as I put her back in the incubator and turned to a now crying Ariyan and fed him too and placed him back. They both continued to play, I slowly made my way to the bathroom and began to change my clothes.

I touched up my hair by brushing it and putting it into a high ponytail, washing my face and walked out to see Amira sitting on the bed kissing the twins on the cheek and talking to them. My heart inflated with pride and love.

"You do know the more you take them out of the incubator the longer they will need to be kept in there," I said to Amir who looked down as he pouted at me as I couldn't help but feel guilty like it was my fault.

I walked towards them and caressed Amira on her cheek and placed her gently on my lap as she rested her head on my chest smiling at me.

"Mummy, will the babies come home wiv ush today?" Amira asked as she gently caressed Ariyan's hand and laughed when he opened his eyes. I couldn't help but laugh as well as Ariyan's eyes moved to look at me but poor baby he can only see shadows nothing is really clear yet for them both.

"No, they can't, not yet they need to be here for a month and a half to get better," I said as I kissed her forehead and looked at Amir playing with our babies, as I smiled.

"So, that's why we need to put them back in, so they can get better and we can take them home," I said as I placed Amira on the sofa and gently picked up Ariyah and Amir picked up Ariyan as we placed them back in there incubators and carefully attached the drips back on to them, exactly how the nurses showed us yesterday.

My heart, felt weird seeing my babies lying helplessly depending on the machines to help them but Alhamdulillah they were happy and in good weight and healthy given the circumstances SubhanAllah. All I could do was pray to Allah that he keeps them healthy and makes them pious and righteous Muslims in sha Allah. Ameen.

"I'm sorry you can't hold your children for long without having to worry about their health," I said to Amir apologetically.

"Hey, stop condemning yourself, you gave me these kids that I can hold and love with all my heart and love all my life In sha Allah and SubhanAllah", he said as he walked over to me and hugged me leaving his arm over my shoulder as we watched the sun, rising high above the clouds.
