THE HEARTS REAWAKENING

75: REAWAKENED.

I dare you to comment on each paragraph because we are done!😭

KANO STATE, NIGERIA.

"What the heck?!" Lateefa yelled at the makeup artist who jumped on her feet in fright. She mistakenly poked the tip of an eyeliner across her eyelids but Lateefa exaggerated.

The timid makeup artist rushed to clean the mess. "I'm so sorry. I'll just have it cleaned right now."

Lateefa wanted to keep yelling at the girl but then huffed and allowed her to finish her work. She's been so jumpy since in the morning because why the heck not? She is freaking getting married in less than an hour to her fiancée, you don't expect a calm Lateefa at that moment. She's been snapping at anyone who comes her way whether older or not. She just finished an episode with one of those annoying aunts.

The woman won't allow her to get dressed because she wants to have the talk with her. She's been having that talk with her whole aunts the night before but the jjc aunt just wants to act all eminent.

"I don't know why this girl is just overreacting. You are getting married not going to your husbands burial, chill." Amirah laughed hard, then gave a sheepish smile before continue to eat munch it.

Kamilah nodded her head, agreeing to what Amirah had just said. "Remember when she was taking my video during my own wedding? Because I was crying 'hard'?" Amirah nodded, still giggling here and there with the snack in her mouth. "I cannot wait to do that to her. You remember what she said ba? That she will never cry on her wedding day."

Amirah kept nodding while doubling over with laughter. Lateefa looks like she is about to throw them both into the loo and flush their existence. "I totally support you, baby! Make sure you take the part where she sobs about not wanting to leave momma."

"Fuck you both!" She hauled at them, yawing her attention back to the quiet tolerant makeup artist. She's been watching their banter since she started the bridesmaids makeup.

Lateefa mother walked in at that time, her hands flying to hold her head tie in place when it almost hit the door. Hajiya Munira is a Yoruba woman and proud one too at that. She came from a rich family and lived most of her life in London only to come back after she got married to Lateefa's father years ago. Their love was perfect in Amirah's books because she's always loved that none Nigerian love. She wants open love, one that a man is not afraid to show to the world what she means to him, that kind and they had it.

It reminds her of Imad few days ago. "Amirah got a visitor in their chamber, she wasn't working that day and is only spending the day in pajamas and her daughter in matching onesie.

Falak bounced inside the room in her laboratory coat, she is from the hospital from the looks of it. Underneath the lab coat is grey palazzo and her head is tied with matching veil and black doctor's bag is in her hand. She didn't ask for permission and just walked inside, sat down on the royal couch with a sigh. She grinned at Najla who clapped her fingers and rushed to her aunt, they've bonded up quite well.

"You need to punish Imad some more. I am not satisfied with just spending his money." Amirah made a face but Falak didn't permit her to complain. "You love him, I know and so do I! He is my brother and I love him too but what he did was uncalled for and if you give him this chance just free like this, he won't learn the next time so I came up with something."

Amirah actually smiled, she's been planning something similar but gave up when it reminded her of the love she has for him. "What is it?"

Falak's grin widened to that evil glint. "Write him a letter that you are leaving to sort yourself out and taking Najla with you. Don't tell him where you are going and then call me when it's all done. If possible, do that now so we can leave."
