He looked at Basira who was walking passed the waiting living room with an empty tray in hand.

"Where is she?"

"Good morning boss" she said with her head down. "Where is she?" He asked again.

"She had guests early in the morning."

"Who are they? I wasn't informed about any guests coming into this house?" She looked down and said am sorry.

"Do I have to repeat myself?"

"It is the minister of foreign affairs and the wife of minister of petroleum."

"Did they make an appointment with her?"

"No sir she was quite surprised when I informed her of their arrival."

He looked at the area she was coming from and said room 3? "Yes sir" she said as soon as he closed his mouth.

He walked passed her and headed deep inside the house.

Salma was seated with the politician and the politicians wife. She smiled a bit when she remembered her fathers funeral.

A lot of politicians and their families went and those abroad sent their condolences. What really brings you here? Was the one question she wanted to ask.

Salma looked at the door when she heard it open. To her surprise it was Naseem who walked in.

Behind him was Basira. "Ah Alhaji has come out" the minister said with a smile as she stood up. He looked at salma and said are you ready?

She nodded and said "yes I was about to go out but then these guests arrived so I had to attend to them."

He looked at them and said "what brings you here?" The minister of foreign affairs Maryam Alhassan smiled and said we came to see you.

"If you wanted to see me you should have made an appointment" he said as he took a seat close to salma.

"We had been trying to get appointment but we couldn't get one so we thought we should come and see hajiya."
