I managed to snap.
I can hear the car horn notifying me that I am the one they are waiting for.

I rushed Downstairs.

I almost tripped down on my heels.

"Calm down". I stopped.

"Salma you have to walk slowly so that you don't trip". I whispered.
I walked slowly.

We had a peaceful drive to our house.

I salam. We dare not knock at Malam's house.
Mairo our maid opened the door.

"Sally". She hugged me.

"Mario".

"Ina hajiya? I released the hug.
As we all walked inside.

"Tana daki".

I ran upstairs leaving sister mabruka and the rest in the living room.

"Hajiya ". I hugged her.

"Baby nah". She hugged me.

I began crying immediately.

I couldn't stop crying. I miss Hajiya.

"Lafiya diyata? "

"Hajiya ta". I cried.

"Naam".

"Hajiya Mubarak".

"Menene ya Faru ?"

'I'm tired of Mubarak. I'm just pretending that everything is fine". I looked at her face with my face full of tears.

"My daughter I won't ask you what happened but I want you to believe that this is Allah's doing. After sorrow it is happiness. Please be patient.

"Hajiya. Mu...ba.....rak". I stammered.

"Kiyi hakuri. Allah zai Miki agora. Kinji?""

I nodded my head.

"Sister Salma". She came to me.

"Khadijah". I smiled.

"How far?

"My sissy". She called out.

"Yes". I replied.

"You are slim, not as beautiful as before ".

"Kiyi min shiru. Your eyes sees everything. And haven't I told you to stop coming to my room?". Hajiya said to khadijah.

"Hajiya. I apologized and I returned the ring". Khadijah.

"Do you know what she did?" Hajiya looked at me.

"She stole my room keys. Entered my room and stole my ring".

"Sister. I told her to give it to me and she refused. So I stole it".
