Diary of a broken heart

💞chapter 16💞

Wurno🌳🌳

After an hour drive, We arrived at their huge family house and got a very warm welcoming.

Mama introduced me to alot of people before asking us to go and rest.
Me, Mamu and Zara were staying in Aisha's room. While Mama is staying with Hajiya Inna.

We offered our maghrib prayers and had an amazing dinner of tuwo with miyan Kuka.

Shatuuh was telling us alot about wurno and we were all engrossed in listening. She's a very lovely and carefree girl plus she's a year older than me.

"Salamu alaikum! Ya shatuuh Wai ance Zahran zaria tazo" said a young boy peeping through the door.

Inji waane!!! They asked in unison.

Inji wani ne! Nima ban San shi ba.

"I don't know anybody here. This is my first time coming to wurno. Who is looking for me now" I stated looking baffled.

Ni wallahi bazan fita ba! Haka kawai harda wani cewa Zahran zaria.

I kept ranting furiously

"Haaaan!!! Why are getting upset now? Maybe ma it's Yaya. Kina nan kin damu kanki a banza" Said Mamu

Just then realization dawned upon me. Definitely it's him because I totally forgot about him.

I smiled and said Mamu zomuje ki rakani!

To say I was shocked to see the person in front of me was an understatement.

I couldn't believe my eyes.
Ya Zaid!!! So it's you???
How comes you're here??

"Wow! So I don't even deserve the courtesy of greeting? Am I not welcome??" He said pretending to be sad.

No!! ba haka bane am just surprised. Good evening ya Zaid" I said turning to hold Mamu's hand as I was nervous and behold! She was no where to be seen.

As if he could read my mind.

"Hey relax!! I don't eat people you know? She thought we needed privacy so she left" he said and winked.

I happened to see your arrival earlier so I decided to drop by and say hi.
I was here since last week as i came to see my grandma.

Do you mind strolling with me?? I promise we won't take long" he asked and I simply nodded.

" I am Zaid Haroon by name. An indigene of wurno, sokoto state. The second child of my family having 2 sisters i.e Maimuna is my elder sister who is happily married with 2 kids (Iman and Aslam) and Asmaa who is the last born. Am 26 years old working in UDUTH as a paediatrician" he said staring at me.

I thought we needed proper introduction that's why. You don't have to tell me anything if you don't feel comfortable with that.

"Zahra Saleh an indigene of kontagora, Niger state living in zaria. The third child of my family having 3 brothers and 3 sisters. Maryam is the eldest followed by her twin Abdulaziz then me followed by Usman, Khadijah, Aisha and Abdurrahman. Am a student still in my secondary School." I managed to say and smile.

Well it's nice meeting you Zahra Gambo. But can I say something??

"My name is not Zahra Gambo" I said and pouted

You look like a typical last born. You should have come last just like my sister Asmaa.

"Ya Zaid Please I want to sleep. Am tired and sleepy let's go back." I said trying my best to sound tired.

Alright princess let's go..

We were moving towards the house and I was laughing at something he was saying as he was a very jovial and funny person, when I saw Yaya glaring at me.
