Mistress novel Chapter 27

The Next Day

Sehreyar's p.o.v

I came to the hospital to talk with Haniya's doctor. Yesterday he told me to meet him. I am wondering why he told me to meet him urgently. I am really worried about Haniya. I just hope my sister is fine.

I entered into his room and he gave me a genuine smile. I sat in front of him and asked worriedly," You wanted to meet me. Is my sister fine?"

" Yeah. Your sister is fine and she is recovering very fast. You can take her to home," The doctor replied smilingly.

I asked him confusingly yet happily," Take her home? Is she really that much recovered?

The doctor said chuckling," That's why I called you here. I wanted to give this good news to you that your sister's condition is much better now."

I felt relief after many days. Finally, my sister is coming home. I thanked Allah for making my sister's condition fine.

I thanked the doctor and wanted to meet my sister.

He took me to Haniya's cabin and opened the door. My eyes became wide like saucers seeing Haniya. I am just blinking my eyes seeing the scenery in front of me.

Haniya is holding a baby in her arms and talking with it affectionately. She is looking so much happy.

I uttered with too much shock," Whose baby is it? Why is Haniya holding it? From where she found it?"

" It's a baby girl. The baby is the reason that your sister is recovering," I heard the doctor saying.

I asked him confusingly looking at him," Meaning?"

Then, he started narrating the whole situation," Three weeks ago one of our patients died during childbirth. After her death, her husband didn't come to take her dead body and the baby. Her body is still in our morgue. Well, the baby was crying continuously for its mother. One of our nurses was trying to stop her crying but failing. At that time your sister was taken to my cabin for therapy. Your sister heard the baby's crying and run to stop her crying. Your sister took the baby in her arms so carefully like she is the mother of this baby. After that, the baby didn't cry for a second and your sister is taking care of her like a mother. From that day, the baby and your sister grew a strong bond between them which we didn't try to break. The baby is the reason that your sister is behaving like a normal person."

"Did she stop having panic attacks?" I asked the doctor fixing my gaze on Haniya.

The doctor replied," Yeah. She is coming out from her horrible past. She isn't having panic attacks anymore."

"Oh! Allah. Thank you so much," I uttered with too much happiness.

After that, the doctor suggested to me, "I will tell you to adopt the baby as your sister's child legally. They have grown a strong bond between them. Don't break it. Your sister will not be able to live without this baby girl."

I thought for some time deeply. I don't have any lacking of money.  I can bear the expenses of my sister as well as this little baby. Moreover, this orphan baby will have a family if we adopted it. I have committed a sin by killing my own child. Maybe by adopting this baby I will be able to reduce the burden of sins a little.

Without thinking anything further I told the doctor," I am understanding your suggestion. I will adopt the baby legally for my sister."

" That's good. See you. You can talk with your sister," The doctor said smiling and left the cabin.

I am looking at Haniya with my glossy affectionate eyes when she noticed me. She said giving me a big smile," Bhaiya, I have found my baby. Allah has returned my baby to me."

I replied wiping my happy tears," I am happy for you, Hani. I am too much happy for you."

Meher's p.o.v

" Is everything alright, doctor? Why am I having pain again? The tumour was removed during my first pregnancy. Right? Why am I feeling pain suddenly? I asked the busy doctor who is checking my medical reports carefully.

After checking the reports she replied with her professional voice," Well, this time it's not any kind of tumour. I have found some cyst around your uterus."

" Cyst? Is this any kind of dangerous disease? What I should do now? I asked her worriedly.

I don't want to die so early. I have to raise my Mehrab as a good person. I have to raise my Mehrab as a real man who will always respect the women's. I have to establish myself with my own identity.

I am still looking at the doctor with my worried expression when she replied assuring me," No need to worry, Ms Meher. The cysts aren't that severe. They are now just in the initial stage. I am giving you some medicines. Take them regularly and everything will be fine."

I took a relief of breath thinking that it's not severe. I thanked the doctor and came out of her cabin.

I am now walking and thinking about my first pregnancy. My first pregnancy was quite complicated with my twin boys and a little tumour in my womb.

That tumour was a curse as well as a blessing for me. Because of this tumour, my pregnancy was complicated and because of this tumour, the doctor couldn't abort my baby.

Flashback from three years ago

After meeting Adeel bhaiya, I was returning to that farmhouse when I received a call from the doctor. She told me that she wants to meet me and she has something important to talk with me about my pregnancy. She also told me that she didn't abort my baby.

After hearing the information I became bewildered. I couldn't believe my ears what I have heard. My baby is still with me. But how it can possible! The doctor declared that she aborted my baby. Then, how my baby is still with me!

Without wasting any time I went to meet the doctor. I was so nervous and worried. I wasn't understanding what's happening.

After some times I entered the doctor's cabin and she gestured me to sit down. I asked her hurriedly," Doctor, you were saying that you didn't abort my baby. What's happening?"

" Well, the thing is when I was ready to perform the surgery on you I saw something unusual in your uterus. I stopped the surgery and did some medical test. That's when I came to know that you are having a tumour in your uterus," The doctor informed me and I was just looking at her face with my shocked expression. I have lost my words. What's she saying?

I am still looking at her with my shocked expression when she continued," Because of the tumour I couldn't perform the abortion. If I tried to remove the baby then the tumour could rupture and do permanent damage in your uterus. That's why I didn't perform the surgery.

" But, you said to Sehreyar Al Seikh that you have aborted the baby. Moreover, why I felt pain in my lower region if the abortion wasn't performed? I asked her confusingly. I am now so nervous that my heart is beating like a drum.

The doctor replied," From the very first I was understanding that the abortion was forced to you. I saw the tension between you and Sehreyar Sir. I wanted to tell him about the tumour but didn't thinking that I should tell you first. And about the pain, I injected some medicine in you which numb your some nerves and you felt pain."

I was shocked beyond level after hearing her. But, I was happy that my baby is still with me. I touched my belly feeling that I touched my baby. I couldn't control my tears and started crying badly.

I am really thankful to Allah that he had saved my baby from abortion. I was busy in thanking Allah when the doctor informed me," This tumour will only be removed after you give birth to your baby. Your pregnancy is going to be complicated. It can endanger your life."

" I don't care about myself. I just want to save my baby," I said holding my belly protectively.

The doctor asked me," Aren't you going to tell about your condition to Sehreyar Sir? He is your baby's father."

" No. I can't tell him the truth. This time he will obviously kill my baby. I can't take any risk," I said worriedly. The fear of losing my baby started building inside me and I am becoming terrified.
