LAYLA

We were in the waiting room, it was pretty quiet since it was just 5am in the morning, we all were in our sleeping clothes Cuz we had to rush down to the hospital. Surprisingly, Rahim called me early this morning,with the way he reacted yesterday I thought he hated us to the extent of not wanting anything to do with us, he probably does but when he called he way crying, he sounded broken. 


My stomach was in jitters and all I was doing was praying,praying that Munir doesn't leave us now. Rayyan is seated beside Layla, but she looks lost, she knows what's going on, Baba is also here, I wonder what's going through his mind. He never go to apologize or spent any moment with his sons. 


Nabil left on his wedding day but he should be here, he left and cut all connections with us, I've not been able to reach him since he left, he should be here, this is a time where we all need each other.
