Anayah stared at the enormous, magnificent building towering around her small figure. She knocked on the gate and an old man opened the gate grinning at her.

Yarinyan Lafiya? The gate man asked her
Ina kwana.. she greeted.
Dan Allah ina neman Hajia Hauwa'u( please I'm looking for Hajia Hauwa'u). She told him
Toh! Shigo(come inside)
Kece bakuwar hala? She told me that you are coming. Said the old man.

He stepped aside and ushered her in. She blinked,looking at the huge water fountain with dove like something pouring water from it's mouth, with a croissant at the top. She stood in her track, looking at it in utter amazement. Is she really on earth or has she followed her parents to the grave? Maybe so because this water fountain here should be not on earth where many sins are committed.

Suddenly her feet stopped,and she turned around her head towards her left admiring the building. Each corner of the wall was beautifully carved,and the designs were made with complete care. With the combination of sky blue and spotless white paint, it was looking like a palace from the fairyland. Greenies around the mansion was adding more beauty to it.

Aa kina nan! Ina ta tafiya ashe baki bina na? The gateman asked her.
Ohh no! You fucked up,village girl kawai..Anayah said in her mind.

Ohh sorry..Anayah said with her head bowed a little.
Toh muje.
They walked inside the house and the door was opened by a house~girl,she ushered them in.
Bari in kira Hajia(lemme call Hajia).

Anayah was shocked when she stepped into the parlor.
She walked into the big living room and the first thing her eyes got caught were the twin stairs standing in the middle of the big house.
The walls were painted white with beige colored chairs and a beautiful chandelier. Overall it looks elegant.

So I will be living in this big house. Ewee
Abegg shout up and close your mouth joor don't go and embarrass yourself nan birni neh fah😂.

Anayah was high jacked out of her reverie when she heard salam. She loooked up and saw a woman dressed elegantly in a lilac lace the woman probably looked in her mid 40's, and the woman is really beautiful. But what kept her thinking that she haven't responded to the salam is that the woman looked exactly like an old version of her mom.
Walaikummus salam hajia! Ina wuni. Anayah said bowing.
The woman sat on one of the sofas and responded with" lafiya qalau my daughter" yakike?
Wow! She just call me my daughter💃🏻.
Lfy qlau hajia.
Please don't call me Hajia call me Ammiey. Because I'm also your mom.Okay?
Anayah was shocked. Because In all her 17 years nobody bothered to check on her as their niece.
Anayah! Anayah! My daughter come and give me a hug.
Anayah quickly stand up to hug her but she remembered that she haven't took her bath🤦🏽‍♀️.Anayah stopped and started crying. Ni banta sanin mamana na da yan uwa bah, bawanda ya damu dani ashe duk wahalan dana sha? Anayah said all in one breath.
Am sorry my child. Mun damu dake sosai yan uwan babanki sun hanani in dauke ki sunce zasu iya kula dake. Hajia Hauwa'u said crying.
C'mon now give ammiey a hug since we are finally together.

Ammeiy banyi wanka bah(ammiey I haven't taken my bath).Anayah said in a small voice.
Hajia didn't replied her rather she gave her a bone crushing hug. Anayah hugged her back feeling the motherly figure that she haven't feel for the past years.

Anayah wipe your tears and stop crying kinji. You will be happy Inshaa Allah. I know hajia Hauwa'u will take good care of you since she's your mom's sister,she wanted to take you with her but your father's relatives refused. So she gave up.I have her number I will call her and tell her everything. Lemme write her house address for you.
Anayah wiped her tears as she remembered her plan with mama( her bestie's mom).
Let me show you your room that you will be sharing with your sister so that you can refreshen up and eat. The rest of your siblings are not around.
Anayah just said an okay. Will they like her? Will they treat her as their sister? She kept thinking as Ammiey lead her to her new room.
