Iradah Point Of View
I dropped my head on my lap and I didn't know when tears fell on my face ,I try to control myself but I couldn't, I left the room then I served the food but before that we prayed. Are you sure you are not hungry?he asked after I told him that I wasn't hungry, I have no appetite I lied because if I eat again I might vomit and then he will get suspicious, after he finished eating he tried to help me and I told him not to but he wouldn't listen, when everything was done I just went straight to the room and I faced the window, to think because that is the best place in the house for me to do that after staying there for about three minutes, I didn't even know when he came in and then he hugged me from the back ,I faced him and he asked, are you still worried about your dad?,no I'm not I said and he held my hand ,I don't want you to worry about your dad,everything is going to be fine, Allah is with him he said and I forced a smile, thank you habeeby I said and I hugged him and started to cry, not only because of my dad but because of everything, I wish I wasn't pregnant and I wish I was pregnant!I'm just stressed and everything, it's okay hmm it's okay he said and cleaned my tears ,everything will be fine he said and I nodded ,you're hungry?he asked, no I'm not I lied and regretted saying so, are you sure?he asked smiling yes I'm just going to shower and go to bed I said and he stared at me ,I lowered my gaze because anytime I stare at him my heart beats faster than normal. After showering I put on my pajamas and layed on the bed using the blanket to cover myself and turning my back away from Rayyan. I then received a message from my phone ,I sat up and took my phone .It was from Ramlah and it says "have you tell him?", gosh I wish I hadn't told her about it then I replied " no haven't told him" I typed and she immediately replied "why?", please could you please let me be ,it's my pregnancy not yours !I typed and sent it. I was so angry, "am sorry, how is Rayyan?"she asked and I faced him ,he was busy with his phone, he's fine I typed and went offline when I suddenly remembered something then I went to my room, I entered and went to my desk ,I sat down and brought out "MY BABY'S" and starts writing.
DEAR BABY ( TUESDAY 15-12-2023)
ALWAYS MAKE YOURSELF HAPPY AS LONG AS YOU AREN'T HURTING ANYONE.
Then suddenly Rayyan entered and I closed the book and put it inside my desk and faced him,you're busy?he asked, no I'm not I replied and we both went to the room.Rayyan Point Of View.
I woke up 6:30am in the morning and didn't find Iradah beside me, I stood up to check on her ,then I left the room, I entered her room and searched for her , in no time I saw her in the toilet vomiting, are you okay?I asked her ,no she said in a low voice looking pale ,should I call a doctor?I asked, no she quickly interjected, I'm fine she added ,but you're not okay, let's do this ,don't go to work today and get some rest okay? I said ,but I have to go to work she said ,not today, you're sick and you need to get some rest or do you need my company?I asked,you don't have to do that she said then suddenly she was about to fall down and I quickly helped her and put her on the bed, see!you're not fine,I'll just skip work today and keep your company I said, you don't have to she said still in a low voice, but my mind won't be at rest even if I go to work because I'm gonna be worried about you I said and she smiled then after sometime of talking and cuddling she fell asleep on my arms , she looked cute and beautiful and I regretted not being there for her all the time , I should be there for her at the lowest moments of her life as her husband, I let her rest her head in the pillow case and then I used the blanket to cover her ,I checked her temperature and it was normal, what could be wrong that she was vomiting like that ?I thought in mystery, should I invite a doctor?I thought again and again then I decided to call my mum whom is a doctor ,Asalaam alaikum mum I said, Walaykum salam dear how are you doing?she asked fine actually mum Iradah is under the weather, she has been vomiting and I don't know the reason why, she just fell asleep a while ago I said ,okay I'll be on my way she said ,Jazaakumllahu khairan I said, Waiyakum darling she replied and disconnected, I sat beside her watching her then after twenty minutes mum came and I opened the door for her ,you're early I said ,I was nearby she said ,she's asleep in her room I said and we both went into the room, after some time she examined her and she faced me smiling, you're smiling while your daughter-in-law is sick I said surprised a little, you should know I have a reason she said still smiling, let's put that aside,is she going to be fine?I asked she's pregnant she said and I was shocked and surprised, I didn't even see that coming at all , so...she's pregnant I said calmly but yet suprised ,yeah mum said smiling I'm gonna be a dad again I said excited but at the same time curious and suspicious. Come to think of it ,does she knows that she's pregnant, I think she knows because she kept staring at her stomach yesterday morning, if she knew then why didn't she tell me ?,anyway it's such a great news. I sat beside her ,how could she be asleep for so long I murmured, probably she's deep asleep because of the baby or stress she said ,okay thanks mum I said ,take good care of her Rayyan and don't make her think or worry and don't make her get stressed out she said ,okay mum am sorry I won't be able to see you off I said and she nodded and left. Why did she keep something like that away from me ?,I wish she could wake up soon because I have to ask her about it, after sometimes she woke up and tried to sit up ,I helped her with it and sat facing her then suddenly I decided to keep the fact that I know she is pregnant from her ,you're sure you don't want to visit the hospital?I asked, no I'm good she said, I ordered some food , you should eat something I said ,thank you she said.

It was nice having Rayyan around ,he is funny and caring ,he kept my company and to be sincere am glad he is my husband, thanks for keeping my company today I said while we were both sitted in the sitting room ,if I don't keep your company then who will?he said smiling then I stared at him, will he be mad at me if he finds out that I am keeping something from him?, what will he think of me?I couldn't stop thinking, then I noticed I was staring at him, our eyes met and I lowered my gaze, I was so embarrassed at that moment,you don't have to be embarrassed he said ,I never said I was I replied, of course you are not he said I'm not!I said in my defense ,I never said you were he said. This night I fell asleep early but before that I wrote inside my baby's.
DEAR BABY (WEDNESDAY 16-12-2023)
YOUR DAD IS SO CARING AND LOVING.
I wrote and left my room.Rayyan Point Of View
I noticed that Iradah was writing something on a book like she did last night , she left her room and I entered ,the book was titled MY BABY'S .I opened it and read what was written in it. So Childish!, I can see that she knew about her pregnancy and decided not to tell me, but why did she keep something like that from me? is that why she's anxious anytime I'm around her. Well interesting I said and smiled, I can't believe that she wrote all this to an unborn baby. Anyway I left the room. I can't believe I've someone like her as a wife, writing all this to an unborn baby,Iradah is sure an interesting lady, you just have to get close to her to find out, I just need to find out why she didn't tell me,doesn't she want the baby, am sure she want it if not she wouldn't have kept a journal for the baby. I would just pretend I know nothing until she tells me and actually it was wrong for me to read the journal without her permission and I really wish I could apologize.
