WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT, EVERYTHING WILL WORK OUT WELL FOR YOU INSHA ALLAH.

The next day, After having our breakfast. We arranged our stuff and Rabee and Ralee also arrived. Yes, they're also in the same school as us.

Well, today I felt a little bit relieved not like yesterday, because my other sisters came.

Yesterday night was one of the scariest nights of my entire life. I dreamt about Abba.

"Maryam you better come out from that toilet or I'll drag you out. It's almost 7:30 a.m. and I haven't taken my bath, I can't be late on my first day," I kept ranting on Maryam.

"Chill, I'll be out in the next five minutes please." She answered.

After she came out, I took a shower as fast as possible, I wore an ash abaya with full shining stones on it. I applied a little powder on my face, kohl, and lipgloss. I put what I would need inside my bag and left for class.

Maryam directed us to our department, A'isha and I took a seat and decided to take a selfie to keep for history.

Just then, a guy sitting at our back talked to me.

"Hello," the guy said.

"Hi," I replied.

"I'm Sadeeq, Sadeeq Mustapha, Nice to meet you." He said.

"Nice to meet you too". I replied.

"Thank you, Please what's your name?" Sadeeq asked.

"Huh!"

"I'm Khadijah, Khadijah Abubakar," I answered.

"Masha Allah, Do you mind...." And just then the lecturer arrived. Thank God, I don't have to talk to this sadeeq again.

After my second lecture, I went back to the hostel and decided to take a nap.

Sadeeq had been wanting to talk to me again. I can't be free with someone I met just today! Never.

We went to what they call a Food parlor. A food parlor is just like a restaurant but it's way bigger than a restaurant, they serve a lot of dishes. All students in the hostel come here for their breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It's free, what you need to do is to carry a plate and serve yourself.

We went back to our room after having lunch, and we met our roommate, Farida.

Farida is living with her parents here in Egypt. But decided to join the hostel. She doesn't, just from yesterday to today, I know we won't be good friends with her. She's so arrogant and disgusting. I just hate her instantly.

She came yesterday but I'm already tired of her.

Maryam came back from lectures after aar prayers.

We called our parents and had a very long convo with them, Khalifa is now the head of their school. Well, he's so happy about it that he couldn't keep shut.

***

Just before I go to bed, ya Yusuf called me.

"Assalamu Alaikum," His sweet voice knocked at my ear.

"Wa alaikum salam, Ina wuni." I greeted.

"Fine Alhamdulilah, how're you?" He asked.

"I'm also fine, Alhamdulilah," I answered.
