After the prayers, I pray to Allah in my heart.
Ya Allah, you are the most merciful. Please have mercy on us. Please give her good health. You are the best planner. Do what is good for us. You know what is best for us. Please help us out of this situation.

I look at Hania who was praying Namaz with a hiccup. Her cheeks were stained with tears. I side hugged her while she was crying on my shoulders. I wipe my tears away. I have to be strong. I have to be strong for everyone. I can't see everyone in so much pain.

I took a deep breath and folded the prayer mat. I look at her and she passed me a fake smile. She is pretending that she is fine but I know that she is not.

" Hania, we can't do anything. We can only pray to Allah. We have to be strong for everyone. Mami, Ammi, and everyone is crying. She will be fine if only Allah wants. Allah always wants the best for us. Believe him, he is the best planner ", I said while wiping her tears.

She nodded her head and we went towards the hospital room. Everyone was sitting on the bench praying for her. Ammi was crying badly. I just can't see her like this. I went towards her and wipe her tears.

" Minal, I can't do this. I can't see her pain. She was all fine yesterday. What suddenly happens to her? " She asked me while crying in my arms.

I rubbed her back trying to comfort her.

I saw the nurse coming towards me.

"Are you Ms. Minal?" she asked me.

I nodded my head and she looks at me with concern.

"Dr. Arfa is calling you in her cabin ", she informed and went away.

I went towards the cabin and took a deep breath. I knock on the door twice and the door creaked open.

" Come in ", she said and give me a weak smile. My heart was pounding faster.

I saw Azeem sitting on the chair opposite her. I settle myself on the chair beside him and took a deep breath.

" Mr. Azeem told me that you were the first one to see her in this condition ", she told me.

I nodded my head fidgeting with the end of my dupatta.

" What was her exact condition?" she asked tapping her pen on the paper.

"I was in the kitchen to get water for myself. I heard the low muffled voice from her room. When I went to her room and I saw her taking a heavy breath. She was unable to utter a word. She was clutching her chest tightly while tears were spilling from her eyes ", I said and burst into tears. All the emotions resurfaced. Azeem put his hands on my shoulder and I cried into his arms.

I pull away from him and wipe my tears away.

" How is she now? " I asked in a low voice.

"I won't give you any false hope. She had a mini attack that's why she had so much difficulty in breathing. Her blood pressure was very low that's why she becomes unconscious. Her condition is very critical. She is out of danger for now but I don't know for how long. If you haven't brought her earlier, she may have passed away ", she said with a sad smile.

" You all can see when she will be transferred into the room. But make sure that she doesn't have stress on little things. Don't talk to her unnecessarily and don't force her to talk. She is still weak now ", she continued.

I nodded my head while fidgeting with my fingers. Ya Allah, I am so grateful to you. She is better now.

The doctor left the cabin due to some emergency. Azeem turned towards me and give me a weak smile.

" Thank you so much. If you haven't informed us, we may have lost her. I will be forever grateful to you ", He said looking at me.

" She is my NaniJaan. She meant a lot to me. You don't need to thanks for this ", I said with a smile.

We left the cabin together. I went towards them and they gave me a questioning look.

" Nanijaan is out of danger for now. We can meet her ", I said with a smile.

They all were overwhelmed by the news.
We all went to meet her and everyone was better than before.

" Ammi, you all go home. I and Hania will be staying here ", I said to her.

" How can you both spend a night here alone ", she said with concern.

" Don't worry phupho. I will be staying with both of them ", Azeem interrupted.

" We can stay here at night ", Mami interrupted.

" You all look so tired. Go home and freshen up. You all can come in the morning", Hania told them.

Hania sat on the couch tiredly.

"Do you need anything? " Azeem asked.

"I don't need anything. You can rest for some time. You are looking tired", I said with concern.

He nodded his head with a smile. He went and sit beside Hania on the couch. A few minutes later, I heard a soft snore. I giggled escape my lips as I saw Azeem and Hania both were in deep sleep. Hania was sleeping on Azeem's shoulder. They both are tired. Although they fight a lot, their sibling's bond is very strong. I took a blanket and put on both of them.

I went towards Nanijaan bed and sat on the chair. I hold her hand tightly as I was afraid to let her go.

" You scared us ", I said with a sad smile.

She gave me a weak smile as she didn't utter a word.

" Take care of yourself and your parents. Make your parents proud of you ", she said in a low voice.

I nodded my head with moisture in my eyes.

" Recite Surah Yasin for me ", she said looking at me.

I put the veil on my head and start reciting the surah. I have memorized surah Yasin by heart.

After I recite the surah, I look at her. She was smiling at me.

"Do Fahad and Isha arrive? " she asked me.

"They will be here soon ", I said looking at her.

" Tell them to come soon. I don't have much time ", she said with a worried tone.

My heart started pounding at her words. Why did she say that she won't have much time?

Authors note:

Assalamu alaikum readers,

How was the chapter?

I want to tell you all something very important. I have never put any vote target on any chapter. I don't do this because some readers are there who
vote and comment on each chapter.
I don't want to disappoint them. I
tried my best to update quickly
whenever you all ask for updates.
I am not saying to follow me nor I am saying to comment. I swear it will take a second to vote on the chapter. I know some readers who read my story but they don't vote on any chapter. I have never been harsh on them. I just let it go. As a writer, it's a discouraging part for me. I am just saying that if you all can take a second to vote, it will be a very big thing for me. I am sorry if it offends you.

Love y'all
