Second Chance

5; Lost treasure

       After the first week of being friends with Nafiu,her life has been all rainbows and unicorns and she'd promise it were her happy days.He's a very good man and she's very sure his mum is proud of how she raised him.

Weeks and weeks passed and she got very busy prepping for exams and as for Nafiu he's traveled to Edo state and he's so busy with work.They haven't spoken for weeks now since the day he told her he's traveling for work.

After visiting her aunt earlier today,She went to mall to get a few stuff she'll be needing because her family and her will visit Adamawa which is her state of origin,where they'll be spending two weeks after the exams ends on Wednesday.She quickly finished her shopping and went back home because her siblings will be back from school since it was a Friday.

She's been lying on bed for hours having nothing to do,I'm not reading either because she was trying to give her brain a rest.

Surfing through instagram as always,a message popped up saying;
"Where are your Friday pics,banga kwalliyan juma'a bah!",Yes that's a message from her Nafiu (Oops sorry She said her Nafiu,clingy much).He asked for her Friday pics and here she is still in pjs in bed sulking about going to Adamawa because she doesn't want to.

"Lost but found ""Lol,then thankgod you found me"he said.She miss talking to him this pretty much and was elated when he messaged."You've been missed" she told him.The video call icon popped up,and she accepted;
"Umm hi!"she waved at her man staring back at her on her phone screen."Sorry, I went MIA"apologized
"Yeah  you just disappeared and about kwalliyan Jummaat  ,Sorry I didn't snap,had a quite busy day"She replied and he nodded "Oh how's your exams,hope it's sailing well"He asked.
"Alhamdulillah it is,I have one to go"she replied
"Wish you luck dearest "She kept a keen eye on his every gesture he made,she was almost caught staring,to avoid awkwardness she answered him"Thanks hun ,I gotta go now ""Welcome,talk to you later " he winked and she let out a hearty laugh.
"Please do wink when we meet in person"he laughed and waved at her before ending the video call.

She went offline after the little chat with Nafiu,in her heart she knows she's gonna fall and this man will hold and save her in his heart.She's glad she knows a nice person like him.

She ran outta bed like a mad dog to the bathroom to perform ablution.After She prayed she went down to the dinning for dinner and she inwardly caused herself when she saw guest at the table,she forgot her Mum's friend and her family were coming over for dinner.Luckily they didn't see her coming,so she ran back and change into a beige color Abaya before coming back downstairs after fixing her look.

As a reach the stairs bottom she made a salaam announcing her presence,then everyone's attention turned to her.Aaliyah her Mum's friend daughter stood up and gave her a hug,not that they are friends but they're just cool,they get along but her problem is she do not know how to keep up with this friendship thingy,and the fact that they live in kaduna not Abuja makes themdistant.

A bubbly Aaliyah kept gushing about how beautiful she looked whilst her brother Adnan kept gawking at me,as if she were some white hair angel.

Their mother cleared her throat,as she noticed the way her son was staring."Nafee didn't you see hajiya Raheema"?Her mum questioned.

"Sorry anty ,Aaliyah kept me busy ,jaam nyalli na,noi chomri laawal(Good evening aunt,how's your trip)."Alhamdulillah,noi jangirde...mi Nani ondon vinda jarrabawa"(Alhamdulillah,how's school...heard that you're writing exams).
"Alhamdulillah,lutti gotel en timmina"(we Thankgod,I have only one exams remaining)
"Toh Allah hokku sa'a ,a vinda boddum (write well,I wish you luck)"
