Let me call your Dad, I know only he can talk sense into you "she said annoyingly, but kinsan Allah, sai kinje " she added walking out of the room

My phone start ringing a minute after she left, I know who it is even before checking, it's my dad, and of course he is calling because his darling wife complained about me, I picked after the second ring

Wa'alaikumu salam Mamana, came my Dad's voice, oops baba " Assalmu alaikum

You will love it there, i promise you" my mum said excitedly after listening to my conversation with Dad

I hummed and nodded not looking her way

And we are not going there just to visit, we are also attending a party" she said glaring at me

Of course she knows I love partying? Events like this are my favorite.

Oh really ? What's the occasion? I finally smiled

But How long are we staying " i said

The driver collect the box from me when I got  to the door, she wouldn't stop nagging even when i got down but i ignore her and dragging my feet to the car going through my phone

"Kinyi nafila raka'a biyu danace "she said stepping in the car

yes " I nodded and rolled my eyes, she asked me to pray nafl before coming down and I completely forgot to, but right now I don't have the strength to start receiving lectures and nagging from her So the best thing is to lie and shake it off

Toh Allah yasauke mu lafiya "she said adjusting her veil

"Ameen both me and nafi'u the driver answered in unison, she brought out her adkhar book and start reciting supplications
