KNOWLEDGE IS NOT WHAT IS MEMORIZED, KNOWLEDGE IS WHAT BENEFITS.
It's Friday, Meaning... Today Fu'ad is coming to meet Yusuf. Maryam couldn't sit or lay down. She had been roaming about my room since 9:00 a.m.
"Baby," I called. "Everything will be fine Insha Allah, stop all this," I said.
It seems I was talking to myself cos she didn't even glance at me talkless of answering my blabberings.
I got to the toilet and took a bath, I dressed in a mint green lace and applied kohl and a lip gloss. I'm not a fan of makeup,..so.
I went to bring my breakfast to my room as I didn't want to leave Maryam all alone.
"Maryam let's eat, I said munching the fried yam. Or do you want anything?" I asked.
"No I'm full khady, I've eaten." She said.
"Okay." I simply answered not wanting to argue.

It's 2:00 pm and I know by now Abbi and Yusuf are back from Friday mosque.
"He's here," Maryam spoke.
"Okay, I think you should tell ya Yusuf first before you let him in, Right?" I said.
"Yes, but you know I can't. Please help me, help me tell him." Maryam pleaded.
"Okay, let me go," I said.
"Thank you sister", she said hugging me
I just smiled, hugged her back, and shut the door behind me.
"Assalamu alaikum," I salamed while entering Abbi's Living room.
"Wa alikumus salam," they both answered.
"Ina yuni Abbi(Good afternoon Abbi)," I greeted.
"Lafiya Lau Khadijah. Ya kike(Fine Khadijah, how are you)" Abbi asked.
"Lafiya Lau abbi, ya jummah) Fine Abbi, how's Friday)." I asked.
"Fine Alhamdulilah," Abbi answered.
"Ina wuni ya Yusuf(Good afternoon ya Yusuf)". I greeted Yusuf.
"Lafiya Lau, ya kike(Fine, how are you." He asked.
"Alhamdulilah." I simply answered.
"Khadijah is everything okay?" Abbi asked with a worried face.
"Nothing Abbi, I ju..st wan..t to ta..lk to ya..Yusuf". I said almost losing my voice.
"Oh okay, let me give you some space then, let me go to my wife". Abbi said trying to stand to his feet.
"Noo... Noo Abbi please sit, we'll talk outside." I said looking at Yusuf who's not making any moves.
"Who's sending away my husband?" We heard Ummi saying while coming down the stairs.
