Balanced equation right 😂😂😂
"Over here!" Said Haydar raising his hands in air
God! This business men don't obey thier mother the way they obey the clock. I'm just a minute late but he's already here. I went to where he was seated
He stretched his hand for handshake "oh sorry Muslima " he said which I just had to roll my eyes.
I kept standing because I know my Etiquette.
"I like your etiquette". He said smiling. "Have a seat"
I sat down replaying the last sentence. I like your etiquette. Okay I know what's etiquette but he talks backwards then what does he mean? I said to myself
"I know I talk backwards but in this case it was genuine" He said which I had to look at him
"Wait what? I voiced it out?"
"I Guess". He said trying to hold his laughter
God! I've started embarrassing myself again. Ugh! Not again. I just hope the embarrassment won't be much
I think its better you stop thinking inside "you maybe the embarrassment won't be much as you said. Just an advice" . He added laughing
"I give up" I said raising my hand in surrender.
"Better. What would you like to order?"
"Mac & cheese
Crispy chicken
Coffee
Fried rice, chicken with Colslow
Wine or cocktail..... "
"Maymunatu should check the menu for more" I said cutting him off
He shrugged and pushed the menu to my front.
"No am okay" I replied smiling
"Thank God am not a confused human being" He said opening the menu.
"So you mean am a confused human being?"
"Your words not mine" He said
"So you called me?" I asked but more of a statement
"Oh yeah! I just wanted us to have lunch"
"Because? "
"We are friends?"
"Really? Who declared that?"
"Ministry of friendship and relationship"
"Well first time hearing that", I said laughing
"You are outdated. Soo... We are friends all right?"
"Ummm... All wrong"
"Serious please"
"But why do want us to be friends?" I asked wondering
"I realised I was leaving a boring life" he replied simply even though I need more answers
"Hmm" I said shaking my head. You realised that you were living a boring life and you decided we should be friends.
He shrugged okay not a shrug actually more of a nod.
"Deal?" He said stretching his hand for handshake. Oh sorry Muslima. He said which I just had to roll my eyes
"Deal." I replied smiling

After I came back, I cooked food For us
Am back!! Yelled Tim Tim keeping her clutch
Welcome home dullin. I said smiling
Dinner's ready
She was looking at me suspiciously so I nodded towards the food on the table
She shrugged and sat on the table but she still had to talk. Parotina as our uncle Taheer ( my father's elder brother that I once told you not his step brother). I miss my cousins. Ya Ibrahim, Rabiatu and ilham.
So what happened? You seemed happy. Tell me the secret. She said resting her elbow on the table
Nothing just feeling good
And the feeling good started after your meeting? She asked suspiciously
You talk too much eat up you must be hungry.
Okay
My phone rang and I picked the call of an unkown number and as usual, putting it on speaker
Hello. Please am I speaking with Maymuna Bukar Ibrahim?
Yes
It's from kaduna. Police station
I looked at Tim Tim while she was also surprised before.
Police Station?
Yes. The prove you sent about the poising of Naseer kabir Maishanu is ready and has been sent to the court so you need to come.
O.. Okay I'll come tomorrow.
Did you send any prove? Asked Tim Tim confused.
No I didn't. Am just confused. I'll just go tomorrow.
I'll come with you
***
Hmm. 🤔
All I know is that muna didn't send any prove and how?
Am so eager to see who's the suspect 😆
