"You girls do know our flight is in thirty minutes right? Hafeez asked for the umpteenth time

I am finally done with my exams and today Hafeez and I are leaving to Yola. The girls escorted me to the airport and currently delaying me by warning me to call them everyday, give them every detail of my business and promised to fly over to Yola soon.

"Yes yes Hafeez, we know. And she's coming" Juwairiyya said as Intisaar slapped her arm

"What? She whispered harshly rubbing the place

"Maimai, you shouldn't miss your flight" Yusrah said leaning in to hug me as others joined in

"We will miss you small" Zahra said laughing. She's also heading back home tomorrow.

"I will miss you small too" I said stepping back as I grab my bag

"Goodbye guys. I'll call you immediately I arrive" I said turning to leave

"You better do. We love you

"Good bye Maimai. See you soon super woman"

"Take care. Safe journey"

"Go make that money girl. Let's shop, eat, travel and REPEAT"

"Well I certainly know the last shout was Juwairiyya's" I thought shaking my head as we walked to the airport.

After boarding in, I grabbed my magazine and began flipping through it

"So did I tell you what I experienced the day I went to check on you in your house but found it locked? Hafeez asked grabbing my attention

"No you didn't" I said looking at him.

"I packed my car and went in then saw it was locked. I decided to go on foot and ask the people living around if you guys have perhaps returned. Guess what?

"What?

"I was chased by three dogs" He exclaimed as I look at him with bulging eyes

"What did you do then?

"I stood my ground and tried scaring them off but they won't budge. If anything, they were coming closer"

"So did you run? I asked amused

"No I didn't, I played rock music for them. Of course I ran! Like my heels will touch my head" He said and I bursted into laughter

"Ohh Rabb, you.. you... You were chased" I said trying to catch my breath

"Hahahaha! Not funny" He said glaring at me

"Of course it's funny Hafeez" I said laughing again

"It's not

"It is

"It's not

"It is

"It's not

"It is

"It's not

That's how the journey went. With hafeez telling me hilarious stories and us arguing about it afterwards.

"Yola is----

"Hot! Yeah I know" I said cutting off Hafeez

"No, I meant it's beautiful. Look at that big Calabash" He said as the car we hired drove through the streets of Yola.

"Hahaha it is? I asked gazing out

"It is. So beautiful" He whispered his gaze fixed on me. I look back to him and offered him a soft smile, looking back at the window again.

Minutes later, we arrived home as the gate man helped bring in my suitcase in with hafeez trailing behind me.
