I suspect you mean "after awhile."

I'll do the dishes after awhile. After I make this announcement, I shall wait for an unspecified amount of time to elapse, and then I shall do the dishes.

The pain will go away after awhile. Right now it hurts. Following an unspecified period of time, it will no longer hurt.

"In a while" carries essentially the same mean
