Spending time at the hospital alone for the majority of time was truly a chance for me to appreciate all I had.

Of course there were always nurses by my side, and doctors.. The family visited as well, even my mother in-law put on her most elegant of clothes and jewelries then came to pay me a visit, since no outsider knew about my pregnancy the possibility of her coming to see me only to put a facade in front of her acquaintances was disqualified, in fact, by coming to see me she was on the contrary creating trouble for herself if she were ever to be caught by someone she knew, yet she made all the effort only to stand at the top of my head and scald me:

_" Did you have to fight with your husband while being pregnant and send your self to the hospital? I understand your temper is very short but you have to be more patient now! If you two can't stay in the same room without quarreling then you should have occupied separate rooms! Etc.."

Even my father in-law decided to put an end to his "I will not interfere" policy and siding with his wife he said to me:

_" Souad is right, you should be more careful now and take better care of your self, I understand dealing with my son can often be very challenging, but you both need to put your child's sake first."

After the couple left, I eyed Nana who was at the room as well and who preferred to stay behind and spend more time with me and I asked her:

_" What exactly did you say to them? I have never seen them both agreeing on one thing before! Not to mention siding with me against their son!"

She stopped doing ettasbih and impatiently replied:

_" I didn't say a word to them, Your husband must have put the blame on him self when he called to inform them you were hospitalized, poor him, I know you both all too well, I bet it was you who provoked him until matters escalated."

I felt tightness in my throat as I hardly swallowed, and I admitted:

_"I was unfair to him Nana, what happened wasn't his fault at all."

I looked at the closed door and I hesitantly asked:

_" he's here at the hospital, isn't he?"

The hospital was far from being like home.. It was without him, I bet even if I were to be discharged..home won't feel like home either, because ever since Eliyas sat on my bed's edge and confronted me while crying things were never the same between us again.

I should send my attributions to my coming child though, for obliging me to stick on the bed and minimize my movements, otherwise when Eliyas quickly left the room after saying what he had to say and refused to give me the chance to reply, I would have followed him out for all that matters.
Probably I would have hugged him, most certainly I would have forced a kiss or two on him while apologizing for being childish yet again.

But I couldn't do all of that, I could only call his number and send him messages.. which he easily all ignored.

However, I must say Eliyas Filladi is a very dutiful man, even when every time he looked inside my eyes I felt distance and coldness in them, he still visited me on a daily basis and fulfilled all his duties as a husband, or let's say he's visiting the hospital to enjoy the decoration perhaps because he spends most of the visit outside my room and only comes to me to either ask about my health or to bring me something I asked for.

Needless to say how much I miss him..
It must have looked so clear to Nana how I missed this man, I guess it was so evident that when I asked her whether he was at the hospital she didn't even answer me, instead, she stood up and left the room, and a little time later, the room's door was opened again and Eliyas walked inside instead.
