As the days pass by jalal begin to learn to do alot of things by himself, do he didn't start walking around but he can do most of the things by himself, Afrah has arranged for a physiotherapist to come check him at home 3 times in a week, like any other day Afrah is with jalal in the living talking about his therapy section for the day the physiotherapist left 5minutes ago.

"How are you feeling." Afrah ask smiling at jalal it still feel so unreal to hear his voice, him speaking again it's like the best thing in the world to Afrah.

"I'm fine,
Just tired, let me get some water." Jalal say he's sitting on his wheelchair so it's easy to wheel himself to the kitchen.

"Don't worry i will grab one for you." She say standing up but jalal hold her.

"Afrah." He say staring at her and drag her to sit on his lap.

Afrah just stare at Jalal, it's been just 6days since he start getting better she doesn't want him to out stress himself, she know just how much worried he is about her stressing herself with the pregnancy.

"I love you." Jalal say as afrah put her hand around his shoulder as he keep his head on her bump making her to smile.

Jalal cannot find a word to express just how much thankful he is to Afrah for what she did to him,
    they have search the entire house for the bottle of the liquid portion it's no where to be found it's as if it magically disappear, when afrah ask him about the stranger jalal told her the truth because he do promise himself to never hide anything away from her, ever again Afrah went ahead to ramble to him a folktales story  her grandmother used to tell her about the jukun people rising there death relations to harvest there yam for them, a dump story that makes him laugh soo hard yet Afrah look so serious as she tell him all sort of spiritual,paranormal story her grandparents told her, jalal doesn't want to believe all that but with what happened to him he do know there are alot of mysterious mysteries surrounding this world, some unexplained events and a lot more unseen things that human being doesn't know about.

"They are kicking." Jalal say smiling as he feel another kick to his cheek.

"They are always kicking,
