20th November 2017

Today is Amatullah's graduation dinner, she couldn't hide her excitement as she played music on her phone( like that by Davido) dancing and jumping inside her room. 21 days to her wedding she thought and flopped on her bed laughing like a mad person.

Just then she remembered that deedat hadn't called her today, and this is already 11:00am.
She quickly grabbed her phone from her side drawer and called him.

Hello dee...she blurted out smiling widely.

Amma....he said almost like a whisper.

Huhhh...she gasped..his voice sounds so low, this is unlike him..she thought and she couldn't help but ask him if something is wrong with him.

Dee what happened? You sound so low, are you ok? She asked already panicking.

Amatullah I'm not feeling fine...he whispered again.

What's wrong with you? Amatullah asked with a shaky voice, she was already panicking.

Pain in my bones and joint, and I'm feeling dizzy, I don't know what's wrong with me..he concluded with a sight.
Go and enjoy your graduation dinner, don't miss it please,I'll be fine I promise..he added.

Tears were already cascading down her cheeks...deedat is sick and he's telling me to go enjoy my graduation dinner,so unfortunate...she thought to herself and hung up with out saying anything.

She jumped out of her bed and stormed into the toilet, she brushed her teeth and washed her face.she wore a pink sleeveless shirt and a long black hijjab.
She slipped into her pink slippers and grabbed her car key(daddy gave her on her graduation day) and rushed downstairs.
Deedat kept calling her but she ignored the call.

Why are you in a hurry? Where are you going to? Mamy blurted out when she saw amatullah jogging to the front door...

Mamy I want to go and see deedat...amatullah replied with a shaky voice trying to unlock the front door.

Amatullah wait...Mamy shouted at her.and she stood immobile with out looking back at her mum.

What happened to deedat? She asked her but this time around calmly.

Mamy he's not feeling fine, let me go and see him please..she pleaded sobbing.

Calm down baby, go and eat breakfast first then you go...Mamy said really worried.

Mamy wallahi I'm not hungry please let me go...she said joining her hands together and crying.

Mamy sighed...go, take care..
Amatullah stormed out of the living room before Mamy could finished talking.

Mamy shook her head and pray for the wellbeing of deedat and safety of her Amatullah.

Amatullah got into her car, put on her seatbelt(that's deedat words always) and drove to deedat's...

Mama pirga(good morning) amatullah greeted mama who was sitting on a couch in the small living room watching TV..

Uthallafiya amatullah(morning amatullah) mama answered with a smile.

Uhmmm..mama...is zuby inside..she asked instead of deedat hoping to hear a yes.
Mama just smiled because she knew she wasn't looking for zuby but deedat..
Yes he's inside..mama answered and chuckled.
Amatullah smiled shyly and rushed to deedat's room.

Dee how are you feeling...amatullah blurted out and sat on the bed near deedat. His eyes as wide as saucer.

Why are you here? He asked with a raspy voice.

Are you suppose to ask me that? She questioned and shoot him a deadly glare.

I'm sorry,he laughed but immediately held his head and screamed...

Are you ok?? She started panicking and cupped his face with her palms.
I'm fine..he rasped and flash her a fake smile.
She smiled and held his hands...
Ahh...he screamed again and jerked his hands away.
What's wrong with you deedat? She yelled at him with tears in her eyes.

No calm down baby, I'm fine, I've already told you that my joints were aching.he said calmly.

Stop saying you're fine, you're obviously not fine, you're screaming in pain..she yelled again.

He shoot his eyes close and open it..I'm fine amatullah, go get ready for your graduation dinner and enjoy. He whispered and smiled helplessly at her.

Her eyes flashed with anger..I'm not going.she whispered.
No you're going..he denied
I'm not going deedat..she said clinching her fist.
No amma you're going...he said softly.
No deedat bulama Buratai I'm not going to my God damn graduation dinner you're fucking sick and I can't leave you here...she yelled throwing her hands up with tears cascading down her cheeks.

He looked at her softly and suddenly engulfed her in a tight hug but immediately released her screaming in pain.

You see right, you see what I'm telling you...she said palming her face and sobbing.

Shhhh please amatullah stop crying, I'll be fine..he said holding her hands gently. He could still feel the pain but he quickly brushed it with a smile, he needs to be strong for amatullah.he felt that pain when ever he moves his hands or legs.

Let's go see a doctor...she said and stood up.
No amma I'll be fine, I just need to eat and take my drugs. He said hoping that she'll agree even though he can't eat anything, he doesn't have appetite at all.

Don't  be naughty, stand up let's go..she said and reached for his hand to pull him up.

Ahhh...he screamed again and this time around with blood in his nose...

No, no, no, no....she kept saying it and stormed out of his room to down stairs.
Mama,mama please come, deedat...deedat...deedat..she kept panicking and couldn't utter anything but deedat...

What happened to him?mama asked her and stood up really worried.
Deedat...deedat...deedat..she kept calling his name and pointing to upstairs.

Mama ran to his room and amatullah followed her...they found deedat sitting down on his bed with tissues on his hand wiping the blood that was coming out of his nose gently.

Huhhh...mama gasped..deedat what happened? She asked him walking towards him.

He smiled at her and shook his head but didn't utter anything.
Deep down he was feeling the pain but he needed to be strong for amatullah.

Mama quickly reached out her phone and call Abba and bilal.
They arrived home shortly and took deedat to the hospital, they didn't allow amatullah to drive so she sat inside Abba's car at the back sit and deedat's head was on her lap..
She kept stroking his hair gently and muttering dua in his ear while he kept smiling at her.

They got to the near by hospital even though it was a local hospital.it wasn't standard, but as long as they'll check what's wrong with deedat and prescribe drugs that will make him feel better that's all they wanted.

After 30minutes

Are you Alhaji Bulama Buratai? The doctor asked Abba and Abba gladly nodded indicating yes.
He asked him to follow him to his office and so he did.

Well, there's nothing wrong with him by now de Alhaji, it's just stress and malaria fever and for the bleeding and joint pains, we've prescribed drugs for it insha allah we'll be fine, he'll be here till in the next three days, if he hasn't recovered fully then we'll take another action.
But advisable Alhaji, if you have the money, take your son to a standard hospital so they'll check what's wrong with him because I'm not satisfied with the checkup of this hospital even though I'm working under it...the doctor finished and Abba thanked him before walking out of the office.

Just then Amatullah rushed to where he was standing.
Abba is everything ok? She asked panicking.
Yes Amatullah don't worry, the doctor said it's just stress and malaria, you don't have to worry about anything.he concluded with a smile.

Abba what about the bleeding? She asked again.
Well he said he doesn't know for that one but he'll be ok insha allah, if he have fully recovered we'll take him to a standard hospital but for now, he'll spend 3 days here insha allah, he'll be fine, don't worry..he finished patting her shoulder.

She realized a breath that she didn't know she was holding and smiled at abba.
She wasn't comfortable yet but at least he's fine now.

She walked to his room and sat beside him on the bed and held his hand in hers. A tube was connected to his vain, and another one inside his nose, he was laying down peacefully but he wasn't sleeping.

He smiled at her and she smiled too with tears in her eyes.
Stop crying amma na, I'm fine now, or do you want me to cry too..deedat said and pouted.

Amatullah chuckled and shook her head..ok I'm not crying anymore...she said and wiped her tears.

Deedat smiled and kissed her hands.she smiled and rubbed his forehead with her palms.

Minutes later, daddy, mamy, ya jamal,ya afreen, reena, zuby came to the hospital.
Deedat was getting better each and every minute and amatullah was more than happy about that. She had forgotten about her graduation dinner not until fatima called her to check on her and she told her all that happened.

She missed her graduation dinner because of deedat...yes it's deedat we are talking about, she can miss anything because of him, its worth it...
