           Juwairiyyah kept shaking the baby, shaking her so hard hoping the baby will give out a loud cry or just open her eyes. Fear crept into her heart, she laid down the baby back on her bed, and sat there, stunned, out of words, lost in deep thoughts.

"Mamanah! Mamanah...." Juwairiyyah choked, kneeling down by the bedside. Even in her ignorance of the death symptoms, the cold skin of her beloved daughter confirmed her fear.

     "Hajiya! Hajiya come to my aid! Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihir rajiuun" . Juwairiyyah said in tears, she choked up again for the second time, before losing her consciousness.

. Just then Hajiya Azumi, Hajiya Raliya and Alhaji Abbas came into the room, all shocked at the scene they saw.

"What could have happened?". Hajiya Raliya asked in tears, feeling the baby's pulse.

      "Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihir rajiiun, she's gone Alhaji, help me look at her, Raliya is gone."

. It all came as a shook to them, even thou they don't know her real father, but they've all grown fond of her, they loved her as much as they loved Juwai.

  "Its okay Arfaat, take heart, the baby is not even yours; so please worry less and let's concentrate on praying for juwai to be back. She's been in that room for almost thr...."

He ended the speech as soon as he saw the red bulb at the entrance of the room juwairiyyah was taken off, and the doctor came out, sweating furiously.

  "Doctor, how is she please?" Arfaat asked trembling, and holding the doctor's hand...."tell me shes okay please."

"We've managed to stable her condition, but no one can see her y...". Arfaat didn't even wait for the doctor to finish his statement, he went straight to the room, not minding to listen to the words the doctor was saying.

Juwairiyyah looked pale, cold and white, as if death has taken her also.

    "Juwai, lilynah, my sweetest heart, my wife, my world, my everything. Don't do this to me please, Juwai wake up. I need you with me, i need you badly. I want you back into my life, wants you back as my wife, please Juwai". Still knowing the consequences of touching her, even knowing he has no right to touch her, he still did. He took her right hand close to his lips and kissed them lightly, then brushed a light kiss on her forehead.

"I promise you that I'll confess to our parents that Raliya was my flesh and blood, i promise you that am gonna tell them all that i am raliya's father, wake u..."

       "Arfaat! What the hell are you talking about?".
