It's been 5 months since Ali was detected with cancer. But thanks to Allah that Ali is fine now. But his treatment is still going on. Papa was able to pay all the bills of the hospital. I've asked him how much the amount is payed for bills. But he never told me.

My holidays were over .I'm going to university from 2 months now. Every thing is going fine.
Today is Sunday. My day off from uni. So I've decided to spend today with Ali at the park.
I went to his room. And told him to be ready in 30 minutes we will go to park. And he was jumping with excitement. I smiled at my brothers happiness.

I went to my room wore my abaya, hijab and covered my face. I told my mom that we will be going to park and will be back in 2 hours. And we left for the park. When we reached there we bought ice-cream . I sat on the swing. While Ali started playing with his friends. I was sitting there and watching them playing.

After some time we went home. But there was an expensive car parked at our front gate. (Who it could be.)

I hold Ali's hand and open the door with the key which I always keep with me. And went inside. Ali went straight to the kitchen where as. I said. "Asalamu -Alaikum."

I failed to notice that there were two men in black suits, sitting in our living room with my father. Their head snapped towards my way. One guy was looking extremely scary with his ice blue eyes looking me with his emotionless face as the other guy has warm brown eyes but nonetheless both were giving me negative vibes. I meet my fathers gaze and he gave me the signal with his eyes. To go to my room. I went towards the stairs but curiosity got the best of me so I stopped by hearing their voices.

A voice said which I assume to be is one of the man. "He had already given you a lot of time. Return the money in 3 days. Other wise face the consequences."

Then my father's voice came saying. "Please give me more days. Please it is such a short time. I won't be able to give that amount of money in this much small time."

Then the other guy said. "Then you shouldn't have taken that much amount. We will leave now."

I quickly ran upstairs and hide behind the wall. The 2 men left. I went to my room and dropped my abaya on bed. And went to father's room .I knocked on it then enter the room. My father was looking depressed on the other hand my mother was crying. And it started to scare me out.

I ran towards my mother and asked her. "What happened mom." She didn't said anything but kept crying. Then I asked my father the same question. He looked at me and said. "It's nothing honey. Go to your room."

"But why mom is crying then. Dad please tell me is everything OK?"

Dad said. "Everything is fine. Your mother is just worried about Ali's health. Don't worry" After hearing that I felt assured, I hugged my mom and comforted her that he will be fine, everything will be OK. She then broke the hug and kissed my forehead. My father also hugged me and gave me a forehead kiss.
