She was in her late twenties but still stood her ground firmly about selecting a life partner, Khadija been the apple of her father's eyes having him support her in every little decision she made about her self.

"Hajiya, dinner is ready and Alhaji said for you to be down in" the maid hurriedly left as Khadija nodded her head dismissively at the maid who understands and took her leave like she never existed.

Khadija announced her presence while walking into the dinning area which was filled with her siblings,

"Your anty safiya is coming over today for lunch, you are expected to be helpful in the kitchen before then" hajiya Zainab took her leave, she was a woman of few words which made the relationship with her children sore.

Khadija felt some relief wash over her, she couldn't think of the worst happening to her with her mother numerous setting blind date, she always said to Khadija "at your age I was a mother but look at you been a spinner at home" Khadija was already used to her mother's tunts she was beautiful and every man's dream but been so choosy was her problem.

Walking back into her room Khadija found herself smiling at her reflection at the taught of a particular someone daughter, the girl was too beautiful and smart,
