CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

I tried to process everything i was being told but it was too much for me.

"What do you mean by you're sorry? How could you say it as if it means nothing? My baby? I...i lost my baby." My hands went to my stomach and truly i couldn't find anything there, it was flat again.

"What happened to my baby?" I cried.

Ali was right beside me, whispering soothing words to me.

I shook my head as i cried frantically "Our baby is gone, Ali."

He hugged me to him "I'm sorry."

My eyes was full of tears but it wouldn't fall. When i realised that it was my fault that i lost my baby, i lost myself.

"It...it was my fault." I gasped.

"Ali, it was my fault. I wasn't careful. I should have gone to call for help, i should...i should have waited for Iman to come. I killed my child...i killed my child."

I tried to breath but it was being difficult. My throat felt dry and was suffocating me.

"No baby! You didn't, i promise it wasn't your fault. This is how Allah has destined it to happen."
