Abuja, Nigeria 🇳🇬
Saleema's POV
Babi drove us back home in a total silence, I am still shocked at the way A'eesh behaves, she has always been the good girl I'm proud of. Is anything wrong with her? I just hope all is well.
Immediately the car is parked, she rushed out and runs further inside, Aunty Ameenah was about to go after her when Babi stops her.
"Come back Ameenah! Me kuma kikeson ki jawo mana after all that happened, see everything yarinyannan ta shiga is your very own fault, just leave her alone! At least away from you!" She almost jumped at the way he yelled, Innalillahi I can't see this and just keep watching gaskiya
"Babi calm down, we can't solve things this way..." he cuts me off raising his hand
"Just shut up! We are her parents and we know what we are doing, do not interfere" I felt my heart break apart due the heaviness of his words, I didn't just hear that did I?!
He walked angrily after A'eesh, am I really interfering to something that doesn't has to do with me? Babi is my family, his family is mine. Subhanallah I just hope they're both going to be fine.
I felt Aunty Ameenah's hand on mine
"Sorry Saleema you get involved in this from me, I am very sorry" she said softly, I nodded with a smile and she walks in too.
Insha Allah Khair, I said and walked into the building too, no one was at the parlor so I headed directly to my room, I changed into something more comfortable than the long Abbaya I was wearing earlier.
I prayed my Zhuhur and said my prayers, I decided to recite the holy Qur'an due to how hard my heart sucks.
One of the most beautiful things about Qur'an is when you sit down and recite, you can literally feel your heart finding ease, it's like the mountains of worries in your heart suddenly crumble. That's precisely what I feel right away.
The door was gently pushed open and little guilty A'eesh stood by, I decided to ignore her and continue my recitation. She walks further and took my veil that was kept on the bed , she covered up her hair, well almost all of her because it was quite maxi.
I didn't look at her but rather continued my recitation, she was silently listening to me and the moment I said the last verse of surah Taa-haa, she spoke up
"Mami please don't ignore me the way she does" this touches my heart. I looked at her and she was shedding tears, I gently closed the Mushaf and keep it back to it place sitting on the side of my bed.
She also came and sat beside me
"Mami wallahi I will die if...." I quickly cut her off
"Don't you dare complete the sentence" I said without looking at her, she placed her head on my laps and sobs her heart out. For a moment, I felt bad for doing that to her because she's still young enough to not know how things are supposed to be running.
I looked down at her a tear that I have no idea was existing run down my cheeks, I wiped it away and gently place my hand on her back.
"It's okay" I told her and she looks up at me
"I am sorry mami" she hugged me tight
"You're supposed to say that to mama not me" I said and she pulled back
"But mami..." I cut her off
"See A'eesh, not matter what is it you are not supposed to talk to her that way. She's your source, she brought you to the world, is that not quite enough for her to deserve respect from you?" She was quite looking down at her fingers
