♡♡♡♡The cool breeze from my AC fanned my face as I turned left and right on my seat whilst the breeze touched each side of my face, I just finished examining a patient and was ready for my last patient before i close for the day.
The door swung open and i see an old friend smiling at the door. "Ihsan Abdullah Abdulhakeem." She giggled. "Mrs Maryam Mairo." She has a thing for saying names in full.
"How are you." She grinned seating infront of me. "I'm coming to see you in the hospital not your house so definitely akwai matsalar." I shook my head trying to remember what matsalar meant but I had no idea. "There is problem. That was what i said, Ihsan you grew up in abuja and Hausa is still giving you problem. You need to come let's start having lessons." She grinned dropping her bag.
"Back to What brought me here. My son Usman was playing around with his toys and.. You know boys. He shoved it in my eyes when i tried to make him stop. And since then the glasses i got from you two months back has stopped working on my right eye, And I get red eyes sometimes, Its itchy too sometimes but its just getting worse."
I agree with her its really red around her cornea. "Follow me please." I motioned her to lay down so i can examine the eye.
I used the slit lamp during the exam. A slit lamp works by magnifying the structures within the eye so i can get a closer look at any damage been caused by what got shoved in her eye. I applied a stain to the eye surface to help look for any other changes in the eye.
From what i can see, She has an infection. Probably keratitis but i have to confirm the exact course of the keratitis with a lab test.
"From what i have seen you may have keratitis. But i need a tear sample so the people in the lab can test to confirm the course. You know if left untreated it leads to blindness?" Her brows shut up. "SubhanAllah." She blurted out, Shook written all over her face. "Now you should go to the lab and they will take a tear sample from your eyes. She nodded. "Alright crying is wayy better than wani blood test, Until i come back." I walked her to the door.
Immediately she walked out i waited for a few minutes if i would see another patient walk in, But no one did. It was 3am and my shift was up. Standing up from my desk I picked up my bag holding it in my left arm i slide out off my lab-coat and hung it on my chair.
I stepped out and was greeted by two nurses. Truth be told everyone kinda liked me in this hospital, Well not everyone I know two nurses who rumor has it that they talk about me behind my back. But all in all they all know me. I looked down at my phone and immediately Abdullah came up. A cheeky smile came across my lips
"Hey Zawj." I answered. "Sweet heart." I scrunched my face he never calls me that. "Okay, What do you want?." He obviously wants a favour or something. "What do you mean what i wan- " he sighs. "Okay. Fine. I need you to follow me to Lagos tomorrow." I knew it.
"And you're just telling me? I can't i have things to do at the hospital, I'm sorry." I pouted as if he could see me. I got to the front door. And Luqman the door man opened it for me I waved at him quickly reaching for my purse i gave him a one thousand naire note. I had so much respect for him, He takes three jobs so he could bring food to his families table. He thanked me and prayed but i only nodded smiling and continued my walk to my car.
"You still have about 18 hours. C'mon." He really wanted me to come. "Lets say i wanted to come ehn? What about Nana she has school. I have work too you know."
"I know. Nana is coming too as well ." I unlocked the Black Range Rover with my key and sat on the leather seat.
"Arrrghhh. Zawjii, How many days toh?" I asked strapping my seat belt on. "Just 5 days." We usually stay shorter than that. "I will tell you more about it when i get home but just say yes now."
