Bahija's POV

"Assalamualaikum" I said the taslim after I got to mommy's room

"Walaikumusalam come in" came mommy's melodious voice

"Mommy" I called and ran to hug her

"Oyoyoyo baby na,How are you?" She asked

"Am fine Alhamdulila what about you?" I asked with a big smile on my face

"Alhamdulilah my baby, I am so happy to see you, how's your husband?" She asked

"All good ma, Walahi I am happy to see you too" I replied

"Afra are you dieting ne? Naga the chubby afra has lost a lot of weight" she said

"Walahi mommy, naga the kiba won't take me anywhere" I said with a smile

" Gaskiya kam, but my dear eat your food, remember you have ulcer. Stay away from anything that will trigger it please" she advised

"Insha Allah mommy, how's baba? The twins and everything?" I questioned

"Walahi duk alhamduliah, everything is going smooth , Kaman I am hearing wafiya's voice" she questioned

"Yes, we came together but she had to join a zoom meeting immediately that's why she hasn't come over yet" I replied

"Okay nagane, Masha Allah, Sannu ku fa"

"Sannu mommy" I said with a smile resting my head on her laps

"My baby, is there something you want to tell me. Naga de se haka haka kikeyi" she asked

"Uhmmm mommy kenan, there's nothing fa, it's just that I have missed you so much" I replied

"A'a Dey tell me, what's wrong? Or are you guys having problems?" She asked again

"Mommyyyy" I whispered while a lump made it way to my throughly while tears slowly ran down from my eyes. I narrated everything that has been happening since day 1, without leaving anything out

She remained for at least 3 minutes without replying or moving "Stop crying my baby, everything will be fine" she assured patting my head

"Mommy what even surprised me the most is he raised his hands to wafi" I added

"Ahh Lalai, rashin hankali ya Kai iyaka, it's good you didn't do anything. Wipe your tears and stop crying, let your dad come back from work we will discuss everything. We will also call for a meeting tomorrow insha Allah" she replied, anger evident in her voice

"Ameen ya Allah. Gaskiya you need to go for a spa maybe your face will look better" she said

"No. Mommy don't worry about my face and then mommy I am going to start working because it will at least take away the boredom and thoughts" I informed

"No problem mamana,but where will you start looking for work" she asked

"Ya Abdul found a job for me already, I just have to go for interview and if they approve me" I said

"Allah sarki. Toh it is OK ai, Allah ya sa a dache" she prayed

"mommy but I would be staying with wafi" I informed

"Why will you do that, This is your house and you are free to do anything here" she replied

"Kawai, I just want to go there and it is not like I will be living inside the house" I explained
