You never fail, until you stop trying

"Are you done", Nabil asked entering her room, without knocking, that have become habit lately. He stand clad in a casual wears,he dress in a navy blue button up shirt shirt that clings to all his muscles,the full sleeves of the shirt are tight and they're hugging his biceps in the most hottest way. He paired the shirt with dark jeans and black dress shoe. He look so dangerously handsome. He scrutinized her,she is dress in designer blue gown that look beautiful on her,her veil draped perfectly on head. Looking all wornout,there seems be a distress masking her face,.. he sauntered toward her with his gaze still on her," what's wrong" he inquired,....
"It's my medicine" she said, huffing a sighed,swivet. "What is wrong with your medicine, have you take it" he interrogated worriedly, examining her in the process,she look paled. "The pills ended last night,I forget to refill that and my inhaler is almost runoff" she wheezed. She haven't take it in the morning, and it almost 3pm.
"Why haven't you talk to me earlier, aren't you having like 2-3 inhalers" he asked reprimanding at first but been docile when he see her state. He get her seated on the couching before giving her some water to drink.
"I left the other one back at home" she relented,she always have extra inhalers,it will never alarm or give a head up when and where it will flare up,so being cautious is the key. Despite being on high dose of medication,it tend to flare up constantly due to lung swells.
He looked around to find the other one,he saw it on the side table, pick it up,he helped her puff that. He sat close to her and asked "are you okay" after like 4mins. She nodded her head affirmatively.
"Maryam" he called sternly with a scowl. " Yes" she answered knowing whatever he will say won't be on her favor. That's the name he used call her,her real name,The way it rolled out of his tongue make her flutter, that alone is enough send shiver down her spine.
"What have you take me for?" He asked his eyes on hers, looking deeply in to her eyes as if finding the answer there,she squirmed not knowing what to say. "Are you aware of that,all your responsibility is now on me, 'everything'." He said accentuating the last word, withdraw his eyes on her only for a second,he returned them back,they hold an untold expression she can't tell "Why didn't you tell me your medicine are runoff,why didn't you tell me you are sick" he reprimanded exacerbated,she stuttered saying nothing
" let's go to the hospital" he said after a while, about to get up. " No,no I'm really fine now,we don't need to" she said stopping him.
"Look at how pale you're,do you want Ammiey to scold me of not taking good care of you" she shake her head,then raising the eyebrows and rolling up her eyes staying completely still,looking guilty.
"I'm really fine,we have a flight to catch in the next two hours or so" she reminded him " we should just buy the medicine on our way" she reasoned
"Are you sure you're fine,we can postpone the flight you know sudden change of weather can trigger that"
"No need to postpone,I will be fine when I take medicine" she assured
"Next time don't hesitate to tell me everything,you heard" he said with a deadpan expression,she nodded affirmatively
"Are you done,the chauffeur is here already"
"Yes"
"Let get going then,we shall stop by the pharmacy to buy the medicine"he is almost at the door when he turned "have you take your prescriptions and medical identification" he asked
"Yes",he replied with a quick ok.he left with her trailing behind him after taking her required things.
As he said,they stopped by the pharmacy after bidding adeus to their family.
It's a very big spontaneous pharmacy,"I will get it for you"he said stopping her from descending the car,she give him a curtly nod. He alight the car,her gaze on him seeing how he walk majestically into the pharmacy,she only retreat her gaze when her eyes can no more see him. She engaged her self with her phone, surfing through her mails,reply some, skimming some, leaving trivial ones unread. She was so busy that have no clue when he came back only to see him joining her in the car. The whole kit with him, asthma travel kit.
"Thank you" she showed gratitude with a smile on her face,ingenuous. "It's nothing"he come back. Opening the kit,she find bit full of all kind of medication,from Immunomodulators,inhaled corticosteroids such as budesonide and beclomethasone which I hardly used,long acting beta agonist, bronchodilator, Albuterol inhaler,montelukast and so forth. He bought many that some I didn't even use them,some where injection like omalizumab (xolair) Immunomodulators, it inject subcutaneously under the skin typically, two to four weeks. Any way I'm happy be bought that all.
Immediately plucked out the montelukast chewable tablets to chew,she usually take that once a day in evening for long term control. "You got everything?" he asked and I nodded wordlessly.
It's incredulous to her,how her whole life has been these past few days,she found everything moving pretty fast,how her life change spontaneously, single to married.
After the long and stressful procedure in the airport, check in process, security screening, baggage claim, departure gate, finally they are on the air.
Luxury is the name of the game in first class cabin,seat able to fully recline into comfortable beds, along side large tv screen, person desk lamp, and other facilities. Amenity kit are amazing with mini perfumes, designer gifts,set of pyjamas,even specialized bedding. Access to premium airport lounges,luscious meals made by a private chef,many options from a fine dining menu or a whip up something requested. Seated in individual pods which is more comfortable and relaxing.
All what she do is to eat,drink,used her phone, work a little bit,watch Netflix, visiting the lounge and sleep nothing else which is boring for a lovely person like her. Her dear husband get himself busy with his work, though they tried to interact briefly but they quickly shun that away because of how tiresome it went. It weird for them to talk consider they never have a good conversation. So Every one engrossed in their affairs.
French Polynesia,Bora Bora. Vaitape
Long anticipated trip come to an end after 21hrs 30min almost,they are finally in Bora Bora. To say they were exhausted will be an understatement. All what Afifah wanted is to sleep to wear off the jet lag.
Stepping out with countless of people trooping along,Nabil look around in search of the tour guide. Like mummy said earlier, the tour guide would pick them up,he's hopping to see him somewhere. They took a few step forward holding her tiny hand in his, making her stand by his side. They took a few step only then his gaze to fall on someone. But it wasn't the man that catch his attention, Rather, the sign he's holding.
Mr and Mrs Suleiman
They approach him,he asked "Mr and Mrs Suleiman right?" Nabil answered
"Welcome to Bora Bora,I'm Mr suariz. I will be your tour guide for the rest of your stay here" he said offering them a smile. He must be in his late 40s
"Thank you Mr Suariz" Nabil replied shaking his hand with his. They work out of the place to where the car is parked,Mr suariz drove them to where they are staying. Overwater Bungalow suite venture Tahiti NUI. Marara beach resort include direct lagoon access, private terrace,sun lounge,out door shower and air conditioning. You'll be able to see the the water through glass floor, section of bungalow or just dive from your private terrace and go snorkeling.
Mr suariz took them to their suite leaving only when they are okay,the suite is stock with all what they will need. He informed that he will be there by 12pm to have a romantic lunch on the Sofitel private island,and thalasso spa to relax.
The suite is basically designed for a lovely couple,it look expensive with light colored wood and soft blue furnishings,modern but homely. The only problem is,it get only one bedroom. The room is specially for honeymoon so having one room is not the case. The case is they never crossed one another since they got married,every one is in confine of his/her room. And now this,it's scurrilous to her. How can she sleep in the same room he's. "There is only one room" he voice out as if knowing what is in her mind. She's so exhausted that all what she wanted is for her head to hit the pillow.
"You can have the bed,I will use the couch" he said when he find a couch in the room. She nod still skeptical.
They freshen up,offer their missed prayers and she hit the pillow without eating.
