Chapter thirteen ~ back to school

                    {🌼}{🌼}{🌼}
Zara'u POV

I can't believe what just happened yes yesterday night we talk on the phone with Sufyan he knows that am going back to school today but just now I received a call from the driver that brought me back home the other time that he is on his way back to pick me wow just wow even if I called Sufyan now I can't reach him because he is still in Kuwait.

Umma pack all my stuff for me she even cooked stew for me that I will just boil rice or pasted and eat with it she says I don't have to buy food when I go back.

I call Najwa to check if she is on her way too.

Hi juju I said

Hi Zara'u I and daddy are about to head out now Nana is coming with me hope you are already on your way because Daddy won't wait she finished saying in a bit.

Yes I will be on my way shortly you know I will even arrive before you guys so see you there and tell Nana I can't wait to see her.

I will bye.
Umma I said coming in to our leaving room.

Yes Zara'u umm I called the driver that brought me back home and he said he is in town now so he is coming to pick me up so we will be going back together.

Ohh yeah That is good then ? She ask.

Yes I won't have to go to the pack and he will drop off at school.

Ok then take your bath before he arrives.

I can't tell Umma the actual truth I think is better this way is not like she is a fan of Sufyan yet.

The driver come just as I finish getting ready after saying bye to my family we left and I hear him making a call that he just picked me up.

Umm Mallam if you don't mind me asking was that Sufyan on the phone.

No he laughed I have never talk to him on the phone that was Sale his PA I think or something like that he just take care of stuff like this for him.

Ok...... of course he must have someone like this to take care of stuff like this for him.

The two hour journey feels like an hour with the comfort of the journey the driver drop me in front of the hostel and before he left he still call Sale to tell him that he just drop me.

I went in to our hotel only one of my roommate was back so I just arranged my things took my bath and just lay down to rest since am not feeling hungry.
I most have fall asleep because it's Najwa's call that wake me up telling of their arrival.

I will be there I told her so I just wash my face change and went out to go to their apartment.
I didn't see a car in front of her apartment I was wondering if they haven't already arrived or what then I see her door open I went in immediately we all shouted when we saw each other.

Nana, Najwa am so happy to see you guys and we hug again.

Zara'u we finally met says Nana.

Yes how are you how's the journey.

It's fine Alhamdulillah how was yours.

Great too you can not believe who brought me back I said looking at them.

Sufyan? Najwa ask.

Sufyan who is still in Kuwait no he send that driver that take me back home, this morning I received a call from him telling that he is on his way to pick me up.

Wow really Nana ask me that is so sweet o f Sufyan he take care of his girl even when he is not in town.

He is indeed caring.

Yeah am lucky so Nana how's Bashir I ask her.

Oh my sweetheart he is fine he send his regards.
Apparently Najwa's dad went to town to visit a friend and he will be back to pick Nana.

After Nana and their dad left we decide to just go to the hostel to bring my stew back and cook some rice to eat with, am spending the night in Najwa's place since lectures is not getting more serious.

At the night we have finished eating and I took my bath am just laying down on the bed waiting for Sufyan to call me.

Hey you Najwa said calling my attention.

Yeah? I said with a small smile.

He didn't call she ask me.

He will call I responded.

I like the energy she said laughing.

Oh shut up I said laughing then my phone start to ring.

Hello Princess comes his deep voice.

Hi I said softly.

You good?

Yes I am.

How was your journey he ask again?

So you trick me and send a driver without telling me I ask him.

Haha he laughed a little if I have told you you will have bring an excuse and seriously I hate seeing you ride a public transport he finish saying.

Well what can I do I do not own a car.

I can give you a car he said almost immediately.

I don't know how to drive.

I can teach you he said again.

Haha funny, so how's your day are you still coming back tomorrow I ask changing the topic.

Did you miss me babe he said with a tease.

That didn't answer my question I said slowly.

If you miss me I will come straight to you tomorrow but if you didn't I will just stop at Lagos like a lonely soul that I am he said with a tone to earn my sympathy.

Are you trying to blackmail me Mr Ali ? I said playfully.

I pray that it's working he answer laughing.

Well it does work because I will love to see you tomorrow I said softly.

Babe you make my heart melt I will be there tomorrow in sha Allah.

Can't wait to see you I said again.

Can't wait to see you too princess.

————

The next day we only have one lectures and we just come out of it.

I am heading back to the hostel Naj see you tomorrow.

You are leaving me alone she ask, Zara'u you knew that my neighbors are not yet back please just stay with me this week I know by next week they will be back then next week you can go back to the hostel.

I don't know Juju I said rubbing my head.

What do you mean you don't know is there a particular reason why don't want to stay with me she questioned with concerns.

No I answer her.

Then why are you been like this she said trying to keep her cold.

Before you get angry on me let's just go.

Sufyan will land in Lagos at 3pm and his flight back here will leave Lagos around 5:45 according to my calculations we will get to meet around 8:00pm.

To say that I am excited to see him again is an understatement and at the same time I am nervous but what can I say I need to be positive.
