"Answer me ya Naseer WHO? can't you marry." I asked with tears gathering in my eyes while I can see them looking at me with shock. Mami tapped ya Naseer's shoulder saying, just tell her. After then, she went out.
"Muna..... It's .... You muna. It's you" He said which made me lose balance.
"M.... Me... eee??". I asked not believing what I heard.
"Am sorry muna I want to it's just that...... I just cut him off by pointing my hand at him.
"Don't you dare say anything! DON'T!!!!"
I just stormed out of the room angrily. I picked my hijab and headed out. I didn't bother to finish cooking what they'll eat during iftar. To hell with what they'll eat. He followed me yelling my name but I ignored him and walked. He quickly passed me and stayed in my front blocking my way.
"Would you get out of my way or till I push you? " I asked angrily with tears rolling down my cheek.
"Muna listen to me. I want to marry you so bad but....please muna it's not my fault please listen to me." He said almost at the rate of crying.
I released a short laugh which I can see him looking at me questionably. " Actually it's not your fault. I said wiping off the tears on my cheek forcefully. It's my fault for agreeing with you and trusting you. I never knew you were among those who will do this Wallahi and If to say that somebody told me that you did this to me, I would make sure to strangle the person to death but... Thank God I was the one that heard you myself".
"Muna listen to me. Wallahi billahil azeem I didn't have intentions of hurting".
"And then you did! Now what? Uhn? I said now what?"
"It's just that.... I.... I.... He said not being able to form a word."
"You see you don't have anything to say and since you don't have anything to say, I'll say everything is bye! Delete my num! I'm done with you! I HATE YOU!!!!!!. "I said as I stormed out angrily. Luckily, I found a trycicle. I hopped in locating our house. Immediately we reached the place I stepped out and gave the man 500 Naira. I just left not bothering to take the change. I can hear the person calling me but I ignored and went inside and dashed into my room. I fell on my bed crying.
Why do they do this to me? Why me? They always make me trust them telling me that they will never leave me and they just tell me that they can't marry me. I it only me that they want to hurt? Why me? WHY ME????
I cried my eyes out and didn't know when I visited la-la land out of anger and frustration.

"Ya muna is something wrong with you?" Asked Tim Tim looking worried.
"Ouch! I" said as I rose from the bed pinching my forehead but my eyes still shot.
She touched my forehead and said, "subahanallah your temperature is high. Maybe I can get water and towel to help cool down the temperature".

"But I just can't sit while ..... "

She sighed in defeat "oya am seated now what tell me what's wrong with you?"
"Tim Tim he said he can't marry me".
"He can't??? What do you mean can't? I hate this type of pranks ya muna"
"How can I prank you with something huge like this. He said it. He said he just can't"
"But why?"
"He couldn't point out a reason"
"I've never expected this from Ya Naseer Wallahi. If it was to say that it was somebody else that told me I would never believe"
