Jadwa

I felt kind of relieved when i woke up the next morning the sore throat and headache were gone but the fever was still there but much better now,

I felt so lazy to get up so i laid there replaying last nights scenario in my head smiling like an idiot,

I heard the door open and immediately i closed my eyes pretending to be asleep,

Someone touched my neck and forehead then left, or so I taught because immediately I opened my eyes I found a worried looking sultan starring at me

"How are you feeling now?" He asked and I replied with "Alhamdulillah" before looking down immediately because i was kinda shy,

"Salamualaikum" Ammah said coming in with a tray

"Jadwa ya jiki?"

"Alhamdulillah Ammah" I replied

"Allah ya kare ka Yarima" she said as she dropped the tray on my bedside drawer and left,

Immediately she closed the door I got up bowing to Sultan "what should i make for breakfast your highness?"

He said nothing he just looked down at me like an ant since he is so taller than me,

I looked down immediately my eyes caught his,

"Jadwa" he called slowly and I answered "Na'am"

"Look at me" he ordered and I hesitated before I gently looked up to meet his eyes

"I don't want to see you near the kitchen as long as we're here"

I couldn't help but dilate my eyes because I don't know what else i will be doing without aside working,

"Yes your highness" then I looked down again

"Better, now sit and eat everything on the tray I'm coming" he said pointing to the tray Ammah kept then he left

There was potato porridge, ginger tea and a glass of orange juice so I tried eating the porridge but couldn't finish it, I drank the tea also and was removing my medicine when he came back and sat opposite me,

He looked at the half porridge remaining and then at me, he then raised his eyebrows

"I...i can't finish it" I stuttered

"Its okay, here take the medicine" he said handing me the cup of juice,

"Thank you" then I collected the glass and drank it

"Take some rest okay?" He said and i nodded then he stood up and left closing the door gently behind him,

I slept for about 5 hours I guess because when I woke up it was already 3pm,

I managed to bath and pray since i was kind of strong now,

I wore a simple gown which I mysteriously got in London and covered my hair since i have nothing to pack it with,

After praying I decided to go out and start working then I remembered Sultan ordered me not to so i laid there starring at the ceiling before I heard a faint knock on the door and i got up to open it,

"Jadwa ya jiki?" Mus'ain asked coming in holding some bags

He brought out a wrap from the bag and gave me

"Ma'ida made shawarma so I decided to bring some for you" he said unwrapping the thing

"Whats that?" I whispered because i had no idea what it was

"Really jadwa?" He asked chuckling

"Taste it"

So I collect it from him and examined the thing before i took a small bite, it wasn't bad at all
