Chasing After My Wife Chapter 256
Advertisement
Travis saw her sleeping on the couch. He wanted to call her but he can't seem to find his voice. He felt so weak and even lifting his hand took a toll on him. He didn't even get the chance to look at her for a long time and he fell unconscious again.
Jillyanna was sound asleep from exhaustion and didn't notice his weak movements or his weak call. She slept until the sun was brightly illuminating the world outside. The cool breeze blew the curtains, swinging it to and fro and the birds started chirping, calling their friends and families to join them.
But Jillyanna's eyes wasn't on them. She couldn't seem to hear anything and she felt numb. Her eyes were straight on Travis' hand which was already limply hanging on the side of his hospital bed.
She immediately checked her monitor to see if there was anything abnormal but everything's fine. "Top? Top come inside." she called for the chief of the security who guarded the place at night. Even if Hawk and Savannah was already there, he would not leave until he wakes up to make sure that he won't miss any questions from her.
Top opened the door and saw the panic-stricken face of Jillyanna. "Yes young madam?"
"Last night, after I went to sleep, did anyone come inside to see Travis?"
"No, madam. No one came to visit him."
"Really?" she was still unsure but she felt something was amiss. "Alright, you can go home now. Take good care of yourself and have a plenty of rest."
"Yes young madam. I'll head out now. Take care." Top bowed his head and walked out of the room, leaving the confused Jillyanna by herself.
"It's impossible. I clearly remembered that I put his hand on his tummy." she mumbled softly to herself in disbelief. Still doubting, she placed a gentle kiss on his face and went back to fold the expandable couch. Just as she was roaming around to prepare herself for work, she caught sight of the mini camera she placed under the TV.

"Oh right! I placed a cam to see Travis but I haven't been checking on it lately since mom kept watch on him." she stopped whatever she was planning on doing and pulled out her laptop. She looked for the video recordings and used a time-lapse to see what happened after she fell asleep.
She watched the video intently and ignored everyone who came inside. She knew no one can get inside without passing through Hawk's inspection, so she felt safe.
"What are you watching?" It was Shein who came to find her before going to work. It had been more than a week since he worked with Jillyanna but he would always come to see her first before going to work.
"I'm watching my husband." she replied, almost a whisper because she was so focused on the video.
Shein was about to ask her another thing when he saw Jillyanna's eyes widened. She looked like she saw a ghost or something. "What happened?!" Shein asked in worry and came to sit beside her so he could watch it, too.
Savannah and Hawk were also alarmed to see her reaction specially that she mentioned she was watching Travis.
Jillyanna replayed the video and allowed Shein to watch it with her. In the recording, she clearly saw the moment Travis opened his eyes. He seemed to be saying something but they couldn't hear his voice. And he lifted his hand as if to reach Jillyanna who was sleeping not far from him. It was less than a minute footage and if there wasn't a video, you would think that everything was just made of your imagination.
"Oh my god! Call the doctor immediately." Shein told Savannah who ran out of the door as soon as she heard him. "That was...oh god! We aren't imagining things, right?"

"That is my concern, too. They might think I'm going crazy from being worried all day and that I am starting to imagine things." Jillyanna slouched on the couch and felt helpless."But we both watched it, and you saw it. It wasn't just me. Sigh, I don't want to get any false hope."
"Let's wait and see what the doctor can find." Shein rubbed her hair messily to comfort her. "Don't be upset, I don't want an ugly niece or nephew."
"My baby won't be ugly." Jillyanna made a rebuttal and watched the video again. Not long after the doctors came and walked up to her.
"We didn't get any signal in our station. Did something happen?" The lead doctor asked Jillyanna while the other doctors and nurse checked Travis to make sure that he was fine.
"Can you watch this for me?" Jillyanna gave him the laptop which displayed the emaciated figure of the once fit and good-looking man. She pressed the play button and let the doctor watched it, who had a smile on his lips when the video ended. "It is not my imagination, right?"
"It is not Mrs. Madrigal. This is a good sign for his recovery. Some patients would just wake up instantly as if they were just having a long dream. Some patients would take their time and would wake up for certain amount of time before falling unconscious again. Your husband is the latter case. His body is coping with the damage and adjusting to his recovery. He will wake up and fall unconscious several times. As time goes by, he will have longer conscious time and will recover soon."
A tear fell on the cold floor after relief washed over her anxiety. It was a tear of joy. Her persistent attitude rewarded her with happiness that only Travis can give. She was so happy with the good news.
"Thanks doc. Thank you for helping us." Jillyanna smiled at the doctor while wiping her tears away.
"No problem Mrs. Madrigal. We will have another stimuli test later and we will let you know of the result when you get back from work."
After reassuring her that Travis was safe, the doctors and nurses left with big smiles.

Mo'arka e karbala
BISMILLAH HIR-RAHMAN NIR-RAHIM. Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah; Duniya me aise bahot se waqiyat aur haadse guzre hain jo insaniyat aur sharafat ke naam par badnuma daag hain. Jin ki yaad kuch waqt tak baqi rehti hai phir khatm ho jati hai.Lekin HAADSA-E-KARBALA ek aisa dard naak waqiya hai, aur is me aisi darindgi aur wehshi pan tha ke is ki yaad zamana bhi na mita saka. Balki aaj 1350 saal guzarne par bhi is ki yaad taaza hai.Is ki wajah ye hai ki Hazrat Imam Husain(r.a) ne dashte karbala me jis sabr, shuja'at aur himmat ka sabut diya hai, us ki nazir(misal) nahi milti. Aap par intehai be-rehmana aur wehshiyana zulm kiye gaye. lekin Aap ne sachai ka sath nahi chhoda, ALLAH SUB'HANAHU ko Aap ki mazlumi, be-kasi, aur be-chargi aisi pasand aai ke Aap ka zikr baaki rakha aur In sha ALLAH qayamat tak baaqi rahega.Bhook pyas ki shiddat, azizon ki maut ka sadma, aurton ki be-hurmati ka khayal ye sab baatain sabr aazma thi. Magar Aap ne har sadma har taklif ko bardasht kiya. Aap kis daur se guzar rahe honge is ka andaza lagana bhi mushkil hai. Yaqinan ye waqiya dil toh kya ruh tak ko jhinjod kar rakh dene wala hai, Lekin logon ne is ki Asliyat ko nahi samjha ya toh Husn-e-aqidat me doob kar asliyat ka inkaar karne lage. Logon ne aisi riwayatein gadhli hain jinka koi wajud hi nahi tha.Is qisse "Mo'arka-e-karbala" ko Husne aqidat se likha gaya hai, is me koi andhi taqlid ya gair taarikhi waaqiya shamil nahi hai. Balki jahan tak mumkin hosaka hai galat riwayaton ki tardid ki gai hai. Hamara maqsad logon ko sahi waqiyat se waqif karana hai. "Ma'arka-e-karbala" Author: Maulana Muhammad Sadiq Husain Sardhanvi.Aap tak pahonchane ki koshish : ف۔ش۔
