The slow and steady sound of the machines woke up Zina accompanied with the smell of disinfectants. Ayman! She immediately opened her eyes, the sunlight radiation was so bright that it turned her blind for a second

"Ayman Ayman Ayman" she frantically starting calling out his name as tears well up in her eyes,she ripped off the cannula that was connected to her hand,ignoring the sting she felt she attempted to stand up, but the moment she place her feet on the cold marble floor her legs turned into jelly making her fall down flat on her face and bruise her rib probably, but she didn't care about any of that all she needed was her Ayman

Tears of anger and sadness kept rolling down her cheeks as she tried over and over again to stand up so that she could meet her Ayman but she was too weak

Suddenly the door was opened by Baba,Mama,Ammi,Ya nabil and Mahmoud?

"Subhanallah Zina" mama shrieked as she rushes to her daughters side

"Ma-ma-mama Ina ayman where is ayman please take me to ayman, I want to see him please" Zina begged on her knees as she joined her hands together to show how desperate she is

"Nabil lay her down on the bed"Baba said ignoring Zina's request

"Where is ayman! Take me to ayman! No one should touch me or by Allah I will use this scalpel to slit my wrists" Zina threaten as she position the scalpel she found on the drawer and she was dead serious about it,everyone in that room knows she is capable of doing that except Ammi who has never witnessed her having an episode

"Zina-" Ammi said as she tries to move towards Zina

"Take another step and I will do it! No one should come close to me! Take me to ayman right now" Zina shouted as she pressed the scalpel harder on her wrist making a little bit of blood to trickle down her wrist

"Zina please stop this" Mama said as she burst into tears

"Zinat Aminu Bashir! Drop that scalpel!" Baba thundered making them all flinch, well except Zina and Mahmoud

Zina's eyes were blank,emotionless,dead and cold just like how  Mahmoud's eyes the very day she saw him

"I Zinat Aminu Bashir will not keep this scalpel down unless you take me to ayman" Zina shoot back as her eyes burns with unshed tears, surely everyone is surprised by her fearlessness and determination

"If you don't drop that scalpel this instant, I will no longer have a daughter called Zinat" Baba said shocking everyone in the room, mama burst into more tears as she begged her husband not to say that

Mahmoud scoffed before talking for the very first time since her entered the room

"She doesn't need your last name, she already has mine,Zina would you like to go to ayman" Mahmoud asked as he looked at his wife, yes the tie was knot when she was still unconscious.Zina wasn't even in her right state of mind to understand what he had just said all she knows is that he said he will take her to ayman

"Yes yes yes please" Zina begged as tears streams down cheeks and she drops the scalpel,Mahmoud stepped forward and picked her up in bridal style, her petite figure fitted perfectly with his robust figure, making it look like the last piece of the puzzle was added

"Mahmoud where are you going with her" Ammi asked as she looked him like he has grown two heads

"Ni fa ban ganeh ba,me keh faruwa (I don't understand what is happening)" Ya nabil asked confused but none of them even spared him a glance, Zina was still in Mahmoud's arms as she mumbled incoherent words,her eyes were also dropping signifying that she is most likely to fall asleep any moment from now

"I'm going to take care of her, after all she is my responsibility now" Mahmoud replied to his mother in a respectful manner

Ammi looked at mama, and mama nodded her head gesturing that it's okay

"Ayman is dead'' Baba said making Zina's eyes to shot up immediately and look at her father like he has grown 200 hundred heads and all of them were braided and beads were added to decorate them,He was beyond angry that Zina challenged him

"What do you mean ayman is dead?" Zina questioned in a dangerously low voice that made Mahmoud stunned, here he thought she was just a childish and immature 19 year old girl who loves watching barbies,all those girly stuffs and her life is just full of cupcakes and rainbows

"Ayman.Is.Dead faqat!" Baba said pronouncing each word boldly so that it could sink to her brain

Zina laughed, a crazy laugh that made everyone uncomfortable,she looked up and said to Mahmoud

"You are taking me to ayman right'' she says in a very low yet calm tone as tears continues to stream down how cheeks and he nodded

"I trust you" and with that she is out. Mahmoud gently laid her down on the hospital bed

"You guys aren't suppose to be threatening her or shouting back at her,you should be understanding in this kind of situations.Instead of you guys to be threatening her you should try to calm her down, even if it means you have to act like you believe her and you are willing to do what she is asking you to do, look I did exactly that and now she is asleep" Mahmoud lectured and they all nodded their heads in agreement and with that being said he left the room, he had seen enough drama for today

"But I don't think we should hide the truth from her that ayman is alive" Mama said looking at her husband

"I don't think it's a good idea mama, the doctors said he is in a coma and may never wake up" Ya nabil said as he looked at his little sister with eyes filled with pity

"Yes nabil is right, and besides she needs to move on she is married to Mahmoud now" Baba backed up Ya nabil, who was flabbergasted by the news that she is married to Mahmoud, he was the only one that they didn't tell because they all know he is gonna start questioning Mahmoud and Mahmoud can punch him if he does that

"I'm not sure about this, have you guys forgotten how she reacted when she found out she had bipolar disorder?" Mama tried to reason with her husband and son

"She won't find out about ayman, he is in Italy and she is Nigeria, so don't worry" Baba said and mama just nodded

And with that the chapter of Ayman was closed, or so they thought.
